Here is what you need to do.

1. Purchase an Ebay Turbo kit for a Honda civic
2. Purchase a Civic Intercooler
3. Purchase other civic ricer parts that make the car go faster by lookin fast
4. Purchase a civic and add said parts

or you could

1. Buy a Turbo 13b engine(Series 4)
2. Buy all turbo parts from the flywheel back
3.Install all said parts and enjoy it until it breaks/blows up.


The second option is the one im taking

I'm going to start closing these threads again.

Can I swap a Turbo engine/Jspec engine/13BT/etc into my Non Turbo?
Yes, check these links:

http://www.rotaryresurrection.com/ro...conversion.htm


What Turbo kits can I add onto my non turbo RX-7?
There are no longer kits formally made at the time of this post, however there are companies from time to time that do make available non turbo to Turbo Kits. Because most of these companies stop building the kits, or go out of business in short time, it is impossible to keep active links for them.

Most people that turbo a non turbo make their own kits:
Using the stock TII turbo, exhaust manifold with spacer, NA intakes and NA ECU:
