just like the title and description says: "where can i get the engine specs for a 13B RE" or can someone just post the specs on it... thanks.



also, how easily does the 13BRE fit in a 2nd gen series 4 na?

i know about the basic stuff like engine, tranny, ecu, wire harness, and mounts... is this swap hard or simple??

if you know about the basic stuff then thats pretty much it, its not too bad of a swap because its a 2 rotor and you can keep you stock ignition, water pump and exhaust

i hear the 13b re swap is easier than a t2 swap, is that true??

all i really need is the 13bre motor mounts, right?



what is all i need for the swap?

going from n/a to 13bre?



i read the 13bre makes 230hp at 6 psi on twin turbos. i think fc3s.org said that.



im trying to get jtimnports to get me a stripped block.

If you're going to get just the block, you're going to have to do some fabricating to get TII or FD manifolds to fit. Also, the RE intake runners appear to be larger than either of the others as well. Using manifolds that flow less would lead me to believe that you will be losing some power right off the bat. . .



I have this swap in my 10AE. It was rather straightforward, but worth it in my opinion.

im doing this swap when it snows and when i have enough ( have about half) for the mounts fc3s.org makes them and they're only 250.00, as for wiring i'd recommend going stand alone. If you don't want to go premix you're going to have to swap the S4 omp to the 13b-re but you're ging to need a custom rod going from the throttle body to the omp made. also for info on the swap try rx7turbo.com
