Hey guys I'm getting a turbo fc tomorrow as a donor car and am looking to swap the motor into my NA fc. Can I get any tips? What do I need to do the swap?
Thanks for any replies.

How do I add a turbo to my NA 13B?
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:

Can you get any Tips???

Use your Finger TIPS...lots of info on this as Aaron pointed out!.
I did it as I wanted to work on the car and get to know it better.
Would I do it again..well..Ya,If I HAD to..but honestly it wouldn't be the easiest suggestion..I would just buy a damn TII!

Check the fuel routing on the rats nest. Are the t2 fuel lines opposite than the n/a? I forget since it's been like 8 years since I've done my swap.

Make Sure you get a decent fuel pump, change the fuel filter.

And the biggest thing you need to say to get tips.... you never mentioned what series each car is. Wiring differences would be the tips you need.

If the donor car is complete but the body is junk, there's nothing that you'll need to buy for the swap.. it will all swap right over.

Pretty sure That Is the case with the Engine itself DOC..
Remember the fuel lines on a JDM are Reversed..compared to a US TII engine.People had a hard time getting fuel as they were trying to feed the system backwards.
