you need to search. be prepared to spend about $10,000 if you cant do all the work yourself...which if you could, you wouldnt be asking these silly questions.

here read these threads

(from a couple days ago)
https://www.rx7club.com/2nd-generation-specific-1986-1992-17/bought-j-spec-rew-engien-today-751345/

http://forum.teamfc3s.org/showthread.php?t=55215&page=3

and

https://www.rx7club.com/2nd-generation-specific-1986-1992-17/10-9-second-build-boost-innovations-636334/

run through those 2 threads and you will have a way better idea on how to get it to sit in your car.

u will also need to get a standalone engine management and a good tuner at the very least. in my personal opinion you will also have less of a headache by upgrading to a single turbo also instead of keeping the twins. just my 2cents though.

Thread closed, covered countless times, and needs a min of $5K to $10K + the motor to do the conversion correctly.
