Yes, in fact, you can use two twin turbos from the RX-7's. That means, you'll have four turbos!

I also recommend adding exhaust bearings and cross drilled brake lines so that it can handle all that power.

Psh, what a n00b, every true JDM racer knows that you need a Kuhneutson Valve (

stfu all of u,
why u giving our new friend a hard time.
he dont need no swap from 7's Twin turbo swap.
he just need 2 Turbonator and he will get the same if not more HP out of it.
1 Turbonator can give him maybe around 30 hp. 2 is 60. thats enough for most people.

I <3 the OP.
He inspired me to put 6 turbos and one double-sized turbonator in my car.
So far I've done a quarter mile in 8.69696 seconds.

I'll answer this one straight-faced.
The answer is no. It wouldn't bolt up due to the location of the exhaust ports. Besides, all the old Rx-7 turbos have dated designs.
