Using a 13b In a Dune Buggy??

Hey Guys

Sorry for the newbie question but i about to build a Sand Rail/Dune Buggy and want to install a Rotary Engine in it (i have always been a fan of RX7's and love driving them)

Anyone have any advice on such a swap?

I was thinking of using a TurboII motor but was wondering how hard the EFI and sensors and such would be to wire up. Or should it be converted to carbs?

Or also, i have heard that you can install the 13b and fit it with some Webers. Is this a good idea?

Do the Turbos really produce that much more Torque?

Anyone have a chart that lists the different rotary engines and their power outputs??

Any advice on using a rotary engine in a sand rail would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

or, you can go to www.fc3s.org Email Craig. He has built a few. They're in the Escondido area, I believe.
