yeah I would say just do a T2 swap if anything, 20B in uncharted territory for the most part, and a lot of work.

it kind of depends on what you are building the car to do. if you are drag racing, or a high hp street car that goes in straight lines then the 20b makes a lot of sense, with some porting and a turbo you can make a silly amount of hp and still have plenty of low rpm power. if you are building a road race car, the 13b's weight savings is helpful

yeah, a 20b is really expensive. You could spend the same amount of money on turbo upgrades and make plenty of power. Sure, it would kick ass, but unless you're rich (which not many of us are), it's not the best plan.

Thanks for all the help.. no i'm not rich.. however i do think i'll go with a turboed 13b. The latest news on the car as of now (why i wasn't here for a while) I have just recently lost 5th gear and on top of that it got stuck in 3rd. had to be towed to my house and now I am F*cked because i have to buy a new transmission... (ouch) and uhh.. yeah.. now i don't know what i'm gonna' do. So i'm just thinking about putter her up for sale and going a different route.



If anyone wants my rx7 i'm selling it cheap with mods + a $1,500.00 sterio in it. Cheers. contact me if interested.



i have pictures of the car if interested.
