im back and i have 5500 to spend! * i know its beaten to death but help me out*

well i've been gone a long time and got sucked into my honda.... yes i know i know.... i can post vids pretty soon after i get running right, but to my rx7 i blew it about a year ago and its been sitting ever since.... well i saved up alot for it and i finally got around to thinking about what i can do it to; and i want to be different i dont wanna hear just rebuild it and but a t04r or similar turbo on it


Im looking into a 20b conversion i dont know if price has went up or not but i just wanna do a basic 20b with a stand alone and raised boost. I wanna know if anyone has done this for under 6k for everything.

for anyone asking THE 20B is gonna Stay stock internally..... i may or may not put a big single on it depending on cost.....

i already have a standalone/injectors/clutch/flywheel
i just need the motor/mounts/new tranny since mine is shot

if anyone has really done this i wanna know there input etc etc

$5500 is not enough.
That barely is enough money to rebuild the 20B.
If you think you don't need to rebuild it, boy, you going to regret it if you're wrong...

You need about 10k man. I know it sounds like a great Idea, it does to alot of people, even me. you can try it, but getting a 20b is going to eat half that money.

If you had done even a minimal amount of research (say, on the 20B forum), you would have known this.
