Turbo the 12A or do a 13b-Turbo swap?
 
I have been thinking of swapping in the 13b Turbo motor, but have also had a thought of just turbo charging the 12a.


Also have been wondering...how much for a 13b turbo swap? I remember calling the rx7store and asking them. they asked me how much hp I was expecting to make with the car, and i said 250-280hp. I got quoted at around $4000.00.

Anyone have any experience buying a "JDM" engine off of ebay? They come with the sII tranny and full harness as well, I've just always been skeptical of ebay engines.


Just seeing what options are out there to get my First gen, series II Rx7 into a more intimidating machine.

do the swap imo it's easier. as for ebay i personally avoid unless they have 100% positive or very close to it and good photos quality add. lots of mispelling and grammatical errors in an ad are a good sign to me
