Rebuild & mod ease?
I'm thinking about getting a 2nd gen turbo.
How easy is it to rebuild an engine in one?
I've 'rebuilt' (more like tore apart & put back together) normal engines, so should I attempt this, or wait until I know more about rotorys?
Also, what mods should I do when its torn down? I may eventually upgrade the turbo, and possibly run it on the bottle someday.
If I use a direct-port system, which should I get? I've only seen ones that list # of cylinders, and I'm not sure how many ports a 7 has.

Haven't we ALL heard this
I do not speak from rebuild experience. However, I have removed and installed a rebuilt engine twice. It is not hard at all. Just be slow and put it all back right. www.atkinsrotary.com sells rebuild videos.

Ok cool, so any suggestions on part upgrades?
I should be working at a speed shop soon (I shoulda been a long time ago), so I will hopefully get a slight discount.
