Hi rotary enthusiasts,



I am new to this forum, as if you didnt already know. Well, i need some help. I have an 89 Turbo II, and I was wondering where to get a 20B engine with Twin Turbo's. Also, I was wondering what mods needed to be done to the car to fit a 20B with twin turbo. thanks

The costs vary greatly, depending on what your car already has, what you plan on doing, how much you can do yourself, etc.

http://www.k2rd.com sells motor mounts that will allow you to bolt a 20B right in, but you'll still have issues with both the water pump and sway bar.

Where do you get parts for a 20B...engine gaskets for example?

You can just make the intake gaskets, etc. with gasket paper. all of the seals, etc. are the same as a 13B's.

No, they're 9.0. You can just use 89-91 TII rotors.
