Does anyone know of any successful Renesis swaps into an FC chassis ?
I spoke to a local shop ( 2 FAST AUTOSPORTS ) who said they have done a
few but I personally have not heard or seen one that was completed. I'm looking to get 200 plus hp non turbo in my S5 and this sounds like the only streetable way to do so. Any info would be appreciated.

I'm more interested in the Renesis than a cosmo swap or PP 13b which doesn t
sound like it can be driven on the street. Sen2two had a project Renesis swap but
no new info has been posted. Cost of the engine seems to be between 2k and 3k
( ebay ) and availabilty would be easier than locating a cosmo. 200 plus all motor
Hp for 4k dollars ( total to be spent on the swap) in a streetable package ( AC, PS, etc..)
Is it possible ?

I have been looking for years. There is nothing about the Renesis that a ECU with rotary support cant run with out a problem EXCEPT the APV *Auxiliary Port Valve*. The VDI, SSV, and Vfad are all vacuum operated but the aux ports are dynamic and work off a stepper moter like the fly by wire throttle body. I have received no feed back if something like the motec DBW4 that has 4 Drive by Wire outputs can be used to control this setup.

How is the cosmo n/a setup not streetable? It's a streetport and s5 n/a internals on pump gas.

And cosmo setup's are hard to find? Message japan2la on this forum, he can usually get them. If not, you live here in Orlando where I am, I know theirs PLENTY of shops that can order them. Hell, I see them on craigslist ALL the time for under 1k with turbo's still attached. In fact, I know one on goldenrod that probably has one on the spot to sell me.

If you can't find something, your not looking hard enough.

The renesis swap will probably be more trouble than the 13B-RE to install/tune. Lots of local tuners have more experience with the 13B-RE.

I'm sure you can find other ways to achieve your goal. I don't think you're limited to a Renesis for a 200(+) HP. However, if a Renesis what you want in your FC, then I'd say go for it. You will have to spend moeny either way. Just be prepared for a lot of problem-solving for many reasons, both those mentioned and some that were not.
