verry nice cars the series 5's we currently own 2 turbo stock. one is a street and one is striped out and was going to be raced but we needed to replace the apex seals and never bothered. btw never try to load them onto a cheap car trailer they are so low to the ground the scrape we had to jack up the trailer to get it on. if i was going to buy another i would buy a series 4 love the tail lights on them. :)
but on the otherside 20b's produce much more hp but if you can find a turbo with a 13b then they are more fun to play around with because you can thrash them and still have money left to fix it after :P
Are you kidding me, rotaries loved to be reved past the breaking point, especially with microtech ecu's & haltech's you can program the ecu's to rev up to 16K RPM, that's redlining.
These motors are made for high rpm. Why do you think they banned them from Le Mann's 24 hour race. Mazda Won with the 787 quad rotor, still hold's a record with a rotary motor. No way, 20b is bad ass.
@botchla90393 It throws off the weight balance towards the front but quite a bit actualy, it may not seem like it but there is alot of extra metal on the 20b, you are pretty much adding another half engine to the car, a 13b weighs about 155lbs, then add the extra rotor, longer E shaft, 80mm front intermediat housing, and pretty much every other part of the engine elongated a 20 will come out to about 300lbs after install give or take, so its an extra 145 lbs on the front of the car
20B N/A can still retain 50-50 distribution if planned properly. I'm not sure about the 20BT setup. Might tip the scales with intercooler, turbo, etc.
That thing sounds mean

13b for reving 20b arnt much good past 7,500
but on the otherside 20b's produce much more hp but if you can find a turbo with a 13b then they are more fun to play around with because you can thrash them and still have money left to fix it after :P

20b is a dream engine, 13bt is an applicable engine

Wonderfull car. I love RX-7's especially the FC. I was wondering does the FC retain it's 50-50 weight distribution with the 20B swap?

That's a very good question, but I am not sure sorry.

@LegendaryFC3S Throw the battery in the back, and put a subwoofer, I think that should out weigh the extra rotary ;)
