WA so here we go again...

im still looking for a turbo II swap for my n/a 91 fc and still have no luck.

i contacted japan2la but they have not gotten back to me yet.

also im looking for a shop in my area that is willing to put in the motor because i dont have the time, tools, or knowhow to do it.

im good with piston engines but this is a new playing field for me.

also i was wondering if there were any rx7 meets anywhere from olympia to tacoma, im trying to find some ideas on what i want to do with my car.

check out your regional forums, if nothings happening it's always worth posting a thread to see if anyone is interested in joining you one day. They would also have better knowledge of your area and reliable shops and part stores.

welcome to the club, you'll find your engine

Japan2LA is a good, reputable member. I'm sure he can find you something, he probably just has a lot going on. Look at some of his F/S threads, you'll see what I mean.

I can appreciate that you haven't the time or tools to perform the swap but don't begin your love affair with the RX by mythologizing the engine.
90% of the time the issues you'll be dealing with have nothing to do with how the engine makes compression...in other words, swapping in a turbo is basically no different than swapping in a V-8 (which you claim to be comfortable with).
