How hard is a rx8 13B swap?
How hard is a rx8 13B swap?
Just as the title states is it a hard job to swap out the Renesis for a 13B? I know you have to custom fab some items and move some stuff around but is there anything crazy that i would have to do to accomplish this?

13B-REW and i'm going to keep stock turbos until i get the money to go big twins. I'm shooting for around 530 WHP, but the main problem is i see that you have to custom make some mounting brackets. I could get a shop to do the swap for me but that would cost a pretty penny that i do not have.

Its not that hard of a swap. Id go with a Power FC for your ECU, and getting someone to fabricate mounts for you should be to big of a hassel because Ive seen this swap done multiple times. Keep looking there are a few people that have done it here on this forum.
Quite a few people have down them, there's more than 2people that have on the 8club as well, I have done it but with a bre engine. Btw, you ain't keeping those stock turbos on there-fact!
