Thinking about the 13b-re swap
i've been thinking about this swap a lot recently since its not too expensive and mounts are available. I've been reading alot about it but i still have some questions. If anyone cant point me towards some good information on this i'd appreceiate.
Is it possible to run this with an n/a FC ecu, or will a standalone be necessary? also, is it possible to upgrade both turbos and keep it twin turbo, or is going single turbo the best option? also, if i go single turbo, is there any real advantage over a t2 engine? how hard is it to find rebuild parts and other parts for this motor? all answers and help are appreciated!

I would be surprised if it does work at all.
