Lightbulb Turbo a FC? Help.

So I'm getting an '88 FC and I don't know too much about rotary engines. Would I have to build up the 13b to throw a turbo from a '87 TII?

Bro it seems a lot easier to go to places like jspec auto and just get the full set. Engine, intercooler, ecu, and harness. I'm planning on the same thing. It might cost you more but I think you would be happier.

Just to fast track you to an answer, your best bet is to buy a j-spec turbo engine and swap it in following the standard TII swap instructions found in the FAQ.

Turbocharging the NA engine is a more advanced project.
