I plan on turboing my 13b. Now i currantly have a 6port (egi i think). I want to do this right the first time so all i have to do is switch motors if and when I choose to later.
1.Has any one turboed a 6pt?
2. What is the best turbo to use on a rotory im not looking to pay a fortune for a turbo but can see $2000 but thats about my limit for that.
3. What intercooler works best?/ fits best?
4. For those of you that have done the work your selves a list of the hardware needed to complete the project. brand and type
5. where is the best/cheapest place to order from.
6. I realize the exhaust needs to be up graded and i plan on that RB all the way.
7. as well as the clutch and presure plate which is the best, which feul pump do you guys recomend.
last a price tally would help so i know what kind cash I gotta stash away.


I plan on eventualy changing the motor out or re building a 4pt with lower compression rotors but would like to have the turbo first. I realize that the stock motor will not handel the high boost I do not plan on running more than 4-5 psi until the motor is rebuilt or replaced. Yes i did search turbo but everybody has turbo somthing in there post its a pain tring to find what im looking for. Even a link would be great.

you could use an tII s4, or s5 turbo and mani. im gonna use an isuzu npr intercooler. with the fuel pump, you want overkill.i dont know about 13b's, but the 12a's can handle more than 4,5 psi. coldy13 was creeping up to like 18 i think.

If your going to the trouble of building a motor and then swapping it in, you might as well go for a 13BT, perhaps Jspec and rebuild it. They're built better for boost, and I would venture to bet that it would be easier to build than a 6PI turbo. Plus you can easily get a stock turbo, they usually come with the jspec motors.

One question though, is $2000 dollars your total budget? If so, you'd be pressed to go turbo without some sort of hook-up, or ghetto-rigging.

OK to start thanks for the posts, to answer your coments and to specifie to a greater detail, $2000 is just the turbo part of my budget. I want a turbo that will be big enough so i won't have to up grade it or any other part of the install later, . Now I plan on (i should have specified this beter befor) building a new motor eventualy and keepin the 6pt for my 81 daily driver, thats why i don't want to stress that motor too hard with boost.
