Probably just need a tubular down pipe making for it.

And the boost turning up a bit with a bleed valve, maybe an FCD if it fuel cuts.

Cheap power right there. Put a dump valve on it at the same time just for character.

I currently own a YRV Turbo. And yes what a chore it was to try and find out how to get them tuned here in the UK. Sad In the end managed to find a UNi-Chip-Q seller and a garage to plug it in and tune it for me.
At the moment mine has been safely tuned up to around 150Bhp from the standard 129Bhp. Couldn't go any more as the standard Intercooler is the problem and as it's small gets too hot. And luckily for me the Garage that did it for me is located a 1 mile away from where I live.
If you go here: http://www.wgtautodevelopments.co.uk/
They are based in Middlewich, Cheshire. And are a RX-7 tuning specialists. Ask for Pip Gardner, as he has the map for the YRV Turbo. All in all cost me at the time around £400, which includes the Uni-Chip-Q, The fitting, tuning and rolling road. But if you need more power then you need to look at a bigger intercooler.
Also note this is the same place that did the recent Wheeler Dealer episode where Edd China was getting a Mazda RX-7 sorted out for sale.

Oh and I might be looking to sell my YRV Turbo soon. So watch this space.
