If you look in the FAQ, there are several links on doing this.
Basically, you are looking at a spending minimum of 5,000-6,000 to do it right, and it can easily get over 10k once its all finished.
I suggest you get the engine ported and get new rotor housings for your current motor. That or just do a simple turbo swap.

how much HP can i get with a T2? plus i was kind of going for original. There are not many RX7 in Idaho and i wanted mine to really stand out. Plus i want to race with cars like the Evo and STI cause there are just way too many of those running around.

i know that either way it will be a lot of money regardless of what motor i go with. i had a club meeting today and there are many t2s. they have some work dont to them and they are pretty sweet. either way i think that really all i want is a turbo!!
