i think i'd rather put a 20B in a TII than do all that work https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png
Again this falls under I dont like to follow the masses. It seems like there are a ton of people swapping in 20b's. I personally want a car that looks really good is really fast and very unique. How many people have swapped in 13B-REW's? Tlue when this car had the stock motor ot was really well balanced and handled great. I dont want to mess that up.



I would love to run a 20B but this 13B-REW was a good deal I got to see it run I got to look at the cars odometer and see it indeed had 20k miles on it. The car was totally stock so I know it wasn't beat too bad. This was a good choice for me.



You dont have to agree. To each his own.

Here is the intercooler I had custom made. I have toyed around with making a Jims5543 intercooler kit. It was made by Turbonetics/Spearco. It fits perfectly between the side rails of the car. I used the Greddy kits piping for this intercooler and I had 5 feet left over!!



This is a pic of it next to the Greddy one:

Underneath from the turbo to the I/C. Nice straight shot.

I will give you this much advise dont do it. Just buy a FD. This is costing me more than a FD out of the Autotrader.



How about some pics. I'll start with the engine cradle. I had to get this custom made so the FD would mount in the FC mounts.
Wow, those are some engine mount! How much did it cost to fabricate? Couldn't you just gotten the k2rd engine mounts? Or was your custom job cheaper?
