From an N/A to A Turbo?

Hi,

I was wondering if it is possible to by a turbo kit and put it on a n/a engine. If not what can I do to get more power out of an n/a fc?

Thanks,

there really is no "kit" out there due to the differences of the motors.

first off, the NA driveline isnt that special and depending on your desired results, id expect some breakage to occur.

Converting the NA to a forced induction setup is not a simple process either. And in the end you might be better off learning about your car by utilizing the NA setup you have. Youll enjoy having your car run and drive, and the learning process is generally nicer.

so building more NA power:

there is so much information on this forum but you have to look through it. Use the search feature. Basically it will come down to what you want to do and how much you want to spend.

Taken from the stickied Frequently asked questions at the very top of the forum threads.


Can I swap a Turbo engine/Jspec engine/13BT/etc into my Non Turbo?
Yes, check these links:

What Turbo kits can I add onto my non turbo RX-7?
There are no longer kits formally made at the time of this post, however there are companies from time to time that do make available non turbo to Turbo Kits. Because most of these companies stop building the kits, or go out of business in short time, it is impossible to keep active links for them.

Most people that turbo a non turbo make their own kits:
