1988 Mazda RX-7 Turbo LS

The story

Bought the rolling shell back in 2019 for 600 bucks. I completely gutted everything, cleaned up everything. Redid the whole interior, put new carpet, new bucket seats built a custom roll cage, added harnesses and flocked the dash ripped out all the stock wiring and redo it all by hand myself and wire tucked all the wires going to the bay and lighting. Bought a junkyard LS to start off with cleaned it and built it up besides internals, just threw a cam in it at the time. Had it running in a for about a year with a T5 transmission with the stock RX seven rear end. Decided I wanted to go boost go. Soon realize the T5 transmission was Glass same as the rear end as I went through two of those before deciding to upgrade to a Ford 8.8 LSD rear end also at this time built a T 56 transmission with Viper gears and synchro. Car was tuned on 10 psi for another six months or so, decided to turn the boost up to 15 and that’s when I popped the stock engine. Decided to go for a full rebuild with forged internals, ported and polished head with oversize valves and a new cam, the whole works switched over to Holly terminator EFI software system. Also decided to add methanol injection and now the car is tuned on 20 psi. It makes roughly upper 700’s WHP.
