13B-RE turbo set up

ok some of the guys and i bought a 13b-re to drop into a 90 gxl that already had a t2 swap, the t2 blew so we decided to upgrade, anywho we odered the mounts and did some reseach on this CORRECT ME IF IM WRONG, 2 things first id like to be sure of this, from what iv read in this forum iv seen that the s5 t2 ecu and harness can run the 13b-re baby, now only problem will be the sequential turbo system would have to be modified. now hear me out, if we go with a single turbo set up, we will need injectors, fuel pump and of course the fuel set up (pressure regulator, high flow fuel filter and etc.) with the fuel management while running with the s5 t2 ecu and harness we can control the fuel with a super afc that we have now , will this work out for now????
secondly, where can i find a good turbo manifold and downpipe for a single set-up??

I would buy a Haltech to run the RE. I know it cost more but in the long run it is much better. Why upgrade the motor when you cannot use the full potential of it?

Any of the FC manifold will work. HKS, ETC. I recommend removing the exhaust sleeves and replacing them w/ t2 or FD sleeves as the RE's are small and restrictive. They were designed to produce more tq in the lower rpm range.

They are great engines. Mine sits in the garage floor in front of my 10 A.E waiting to go into something.

Good luck.
