Hi,
ive ordered a 13b engine from jp. Its coming to Norway in around 2-3months.
The car got race-parts set up for drifting and it is primary going to be used for drifting.
Mye goal is 400rwhp and i need some input in what i should do.
Now i have a Os Giken twin disc on my t2 engine (does this fit the13bre?)
Im also gonna use the LT8 from the t2 engine and i got a big intercooler already.
I have done some research and i think i need bigger exhaust ports and a singel turbo with a walbro fuelpump and bigger injectors.

What injector size do i need? What turbo is 'good for drifting?
What reinforcment should i do to the engine?
Is it hard to make the 13bre fit in the FC? (i know there are some threads about that)

Im also going to do most/everything of the engine build my self... so feel free to give me some input on what i need to know and buy. Is the only rebuild-video the one from atkins? Its stupid for me to pay 35usd in shipping just for a CD... (even when i expect to use 3000usd on the engine.

the clutch will fit fine.
remove the exhaust sleeves, or swap in turbo2 or fd sleeves. medium exhaust port. intake porting will depend on the turbo you use, but 400 whp is easily obtainable on stock ports, so a small/medium streetport should be fine.

injectors... 1000/1200 or 720/1600 will be fine

engine is capable of that power stock, but maybe use an fd oil pressure.

engine mounts are readily available for the re/fc swap.

 

my guess is it will not come with a flywheel. it will have a flex plate so you will need
to get a light weight flywheel to bolt on to its counter weight.

 

Thanks for the input. I will go for 720/1600 injectors and the engine wil be rebuild this winter. Is changing the exhaust sleeves the best way to port the exhaust? or will i get a good resault with a grinder etc. If i dont need to port the intakes i wont. About the turbo ill choose a gt35r, t61 or others in that power area(some suggestions?).

I may also change the MicroTech LT8 with a Megasquirt v3. Dont know yet...
With the rebuild i want to change all the parts thats needed to keep this engine alive atleast 1 season of "abuse".. Changing oil pressure stuff etc sounds like a good ide!

Thanks,

Sindre
