FD engine swap ???

Does anyone know how long its gonna take? Im a certified ASE mechanic and im gonna be doing a swap with a co-worker of mine who knows alot about rotary engines!

How long does it take?
Any problems we should run into? Its gonna be a JDM 13B TT engine with 25k
Difficulty on the wiring?

Is it better to do a single turbo kit right away? or just boost the stock twins to 17-18psi...

oh god.

i think you need to read the "FAQ" thread in the 3rd gen section.

1) the stock turbos cant really boost over 14 or 15lbs (reliably...they won't last long)

2) the stock motor can't take more than 10 or 11lbs of boost without upgrading the fuel system & a new ECU/engine management, and really shouldn't be pushed more than 14 or 15lbs without upgraded apex seals
