Due to the loss of my dsm to a beagle (in the road), I recently purchased a 91 RX-7. I quickly decided to turbocharge it due to its UNBELIEVABLE lack of torque, and I acquired what i believed to be a 14b from a 1g, and a 2g side mount. After a bit of research, I came upon a bit (I believe it was at VFAQ) about how the 16g compressor housing fins were alternated high and low, and the 14b fins were all on the same level, mine just happen to alternate. My question is... which turbo do I have??? I cant seem to find the turbine housing size cast into it anywhere, which I know is also an indicator. Also, while I'm on the subject, How much boost will a 14b/16g produce when installed on a non-dsm if a vac line is connected directly to the actuator. I've heard conflicting reports, ranging from 5 to 14 psi. I'd hate to boost and blow an apex seal :/. Thanks for any help, and sorry for being so uneducated on the subject, I didn't own my dsm long enough to get terribly into the subject of dsm tuning. Just long enough to gain a healthy respect for them .
