Not worth the effort. Put the the money towards modding a TII, and for the same cost, you'll get more hp.

hella faster.

its much easier to put a 13B-RE (cosmo 2-rotor) than it is to put a 13B-REW (Fd motor). plus the RE has bigger intake runners, so theres more power potential. its also cheaper.

IT isnt easier but cost wise just as much to put a 20b in then a 13b-rew and of course i would go for the 20b heheh but no the 13b-rew is not something that is plug and play
