I'm pretty much a noob at this so I wanted a more powerful and smoother enige for my T2 and I was looking into a newer spec 13b-tt full swap. IS it possible to do a clean swap w/out alot of complications and if so what would I need besides the basic engine ,ecu, wire harness, intercooler and piping, and transmission

 

The REW (3rd gen) uses different motormount location, alot of fabrication is needed.

Internally the S5 and S6 motors are basicly the same, just go with a bigger turbo on your own motor.

 

it really isn't that difficult... All you have to do for the passanger side mount is drill and tap the holes in the bottom of center steel plate... I did it to my RE and this guy did it to his REW https://www.rx7club.com/2nd-generation-specific-1986-1992-17/my-fc-rew-transplant-487478/

I think the hardest part is deciding on what ECU to use... I went Haltech, but it would be possible to use the OE one

 

Hmmm newer thought of it that way - you're smart

 

Not worth the trouble...
Stock turbos are junk...

13BT will makes close to the same amount of power when we start to go aftermarket turbos.
