89-92 fuel injection swap
i just bought a 1990 gxl with a blown motor. i read that the injection system was better than my 88 gxl has. can i swap the intake and the throttle body, or any other parts if they will improve the performance on my 88. also can i change the tranny and clutch into my 88.

Swapping the lower and upper intake will result in a 10-15Hp gain due to the VDI and better runners. Keep your injectors and throttle body so you don't have to switch your ECU and wiring harnesses...
There is an excellant web page about this. You can find it by searching google for "rx-7 intake swap" or "rx-7 86-88 89 intake swap".
