so, you can use a N/A drivetrain (not LSD) with a T2 engine?

It will bolt up and work, but it was not made to handle the additional stress the T2 motor will put on it. It's life will be shortened greatly.

The guy's are right on.

You can make good horses with a N/A rotary like the one you already have, but if your a "turbo-freek" and have to have a turbo charged rotary your really better off with a car/chassis that is set-up for it.

Ultimatly it will be cheaper and much, much easier that way trust me.

The wire harness conversion alone, which will need to be done to run a turbo motor in your car, will drive you to drink.
