twinturbo in FC
I just got a 90 non turbo that does not run, havnt messed with the motor yet but want to do a motor swap. i can get a turbo motor for 750 but am intrested in a more unique swap, i wanna run the FD twin turbo motor in my FC. I saw an FC with it done, but i think the guy got it done at a shop and he said it cost as much as a new FD. I think i can do it with a lot less money. Im more intrested in clearence issues. What do you guys think?

if you wanna get crazy just drop a 20b in for 30k
or do what a lot of other people here have done and put in a 13bt motor and mod the hell out of it
read the FAQ, though, there's A LOT of information in it

Technically, yes you can put an FD 13B-REW into your car. You probably do not want to put that much time into the engine though.
If you can find it, the Cosmo 13B-REW will fit...at least that's what i'm told. It has the same mounting points at the 20B-REW which are the same as the 2nd gen cars. Why the FD had to be different I don't know...

Parasite, I don't care what that site says, the 13B in the Cosmo is a 13B-RE, **** look on top of the intake manifold it says 13B-RE right on it dude. go to http://www.teamfc3s.org/forum/member...hp?img_id=4910 to check out a pic dude.
-EDIT-
better pic

And the easiest way to put a REW in your car is to get a REW that needs rebuilt and just use a FC intermediate(sp) housing that way everything will bolt up better.

Don't bother unless you have a Turbo II or the entire Turbo II drivetrain.
It's a royal pain in the *** no matter how you approach the project.
If you think you can do it for less, then you probably can't.
