1. Try searching under the name HITACHI.
2. Google for Mazda or RX-7 forum.

You will be better off measuring the compressor and turbine wheels, and then calculate the trim yourself. I have one of those turbos, and I could not find any specs for it. All I know is it has a .65 turbine housing (because its marked on the inside of turbine housing). The compressor housing has no marking but by the looks of it, it is either a .42 or .48 compressor housing.

Good luck.

any turbo will fit anything, outside of how well the turbo will/wont perform on the given vehicle. fabrication alcohol crowbars and 5lb hand sledges are the only things that determine just what exactly fits..

well if any turbo fits then im going to start my project..
im just wondering where to mount the intercooler..
im thinking a side mount...

do you think this turbo would be good for the 3.4l setup?
will there be lag issues?
