Yeah, I think it's been said before. that motor could have been in a boosted volvo or something. I think those accept boost very easily if I didn't know better.

don't swap back to a 13b. it will cost probably more to go 13b again and even more to go 13bt. might as well turbo this engine. and if you debadge the rx7 I'm sure you will confuse the **** out of people.

I figured Reliability had to be the only reason to do the swap.
I was reading that converting this one from non-turbo to turbo would be expensive and not worth the money.
