Question Rx 7 fc

Hello, I´m totaly new to this and thats why I coul´d ask some weird and dumb questions.. I´m Sorry...
I have a few quesions...
First of them: I wanted to know, how to build a RX 7 FC no turbo version to a turbo version and what I should look at to not destroy my car...
Than if there´s any Widebodykit that is streetlegal in switzerland / EU or with certificates for it?
Thank´s a lot.

welcome to the board.

this is the place for newbies to ask their questions without fear, so don't sweat it.

anyway, i don't know what the parts situation is like in Europe, but it's fairly hard to find T2 powertrains and even when you do, they are almost hilariously expensive - and that's before the cost of the rebuild you will likely need. anyway, i'm veering off on a tangent, so let me answer the question.

here are some threads to give you an idea:
https://www.rx7club.com/2nd-gen-arch...etails-813825/

https://www.rx7club.com/2nd-gen-arch...m-swap-635663/

now the questions are do you have the budget (and maybe the ability) to see this through and actually be able to enjoy the end product?

i'm thinking the best advice is to leave the car be and enjoy it as is. if you get to a point where you feel you need to turbocharge, do so through some other means (not a strict T2 swap).

as far as your questions about widebody kits, i'm sure there are a few still available, but i don't know anything about Swiss laws, so it would probably be a better question to ask of your motor vehicle department or traffic/safety board or whatever authority governs that sort of thing.
