you can put any motor you want into your car, basically it comes down to time and money. A renesis can be done but it will take a lot of money and fabrication work. Use the search function and i sure youll find what your looking for

From what I've read, swapping in a renesis would take so much time and money it's not something feasible for your average individual.

Some would recommend a LS1 or some other piston engine however it sounds like you want to stay with a rotary.

I'd stay away from the 13b-rew. This will be fairly costly to what you'll be getting. Your best bet would be to get a ported S5 13bt. To put that motor into an S4 88 FC would only take a marginal amount of work compared to putting an S4 motor into your car.

Otherwise, a 3 rotor 20B is a very expensive undertaking however offers performance potential generally beyond any 2 rotor engine. The last rotary option is the 13B-Re, which is the 2 rotor engine option available for the same car that the 20B comes from. The 13B-re in simplest terms somewhere between a 13Bt and a 13B-rew though there are aspects of it that is unique from the 13bt and 13b-rew. Next to a 13bt, this is the next easiest in terms of time and money to put into an FC.

If you want more information, I'd recommend using the search button for each of those engines. I've got next to zero experience with any of those, however I've been in your shoes at one point and used the search to find quite a large amount of information on all those motors and believe me there is a great deal more than what I've posted here.

A good place to start is this link.
