here's the 13b-RE accessory bracket with my finger as the ruler. pay attention to the hole by the tip of my finger
here's the 13b-REW accessory bracket. notice the top hole is farther up
here's the stud you remove from the RE's timing cover to use the REW's bracket
this is what rx7 guys refer to as the "rats nest." it's what it uses to operate the twin turbo's sequentially.
you get to delete all this crap when you get rid of the stock sequential twin turbo set up and either run the twins together or go single turbo. luckily we have the single 62-1
here's how the motor looks without the rats nest under the upper intake. you can see just how clean this RE motor is by seeing how nice the stock Oil metering lines are if you look closely
here's the uber restrictive brick wall 90 degree coupler and where it was sitting that definately HAD TO GO
here's all the other couplers it had. those going in the trash too. aside from there being too damn many of them, some were dry rotted and cracking
and Kyle's sexy new and improved piping that fits under the hood support rod (unlike before) as well as the cold side which snakes nicely under the strut bar, along with upgraded 3 ply couplers instead of 1 or zero ply it had before
and a side shot
more pics to come. since the whole plan was to get this thing running, tuned, and on the road by December 27th when my brother gets here from his ship in Maine (which is like a week away) it'll stay like this.
once he goes back to base i wanna send the turbo exhaust side, the manifold, the down pipe, all the intercooler piping as well as the intake manifold to our high temp coaters. that stuff is so BALLER! it's like heat wrapping your stuff without the expensive heat wrap and it looks like this
this is the GT30/76R s2000 stuff we're almost finished with at the shop
and a close up of the manifold
here's the fmic piping Kyle made![]()
more pics to come, maybe even vids
