The Search tool doesnt work soo ill ask.

I tryed dont kick my *** (please).

Im thinking of getting a 91 RX7 around 70K on the motor. I want to put in a turbo but that will be alot of money (like everything good) so i was thinking about just getting a whole new engine that already has a turbo. The only problem is i have no idea where to look for an engine like that. Thats why i came here can anyone point me in the right direction with where and how much it will cost to get one like that or any other things i should know.

If you're going to get a turbo, just buy a TII. Don't bother with the N/A >>> TII conversion.

Umm.

The TII (Turbo II) has a 13bt engine. It's a turbocharged 13b.

The N/A (Naturally Aspirated) has a 13b engine.

If you're wanting a turbocharged engine (13bt) just buy a TII. Don't buy an N/A and swap engines.

Check the for sale section for used engines
You could also look for Jspec engine and rebuild it, theyre getting rare tho

Unless you can get the n/a for dirt cheap, you'll be better off getting a TII in the 1st place.
