We are working on a kit for poeple who wants to do a direct FD3S single turbo engine drop. Here how she looks now. More update will come.

I really wanna do a rew swap but don't wanna pay a garage tens of thousands to do work I could do myself with a kit.
moaaaaarrrre info!!!! Lol.

What will your kit include?

this could get expensive

Subscibed, very interesting.

Will this work with the S2? More details on what the conversion entails?

A rotary swap into a rotary car, I approve.

When you say, working on a "kit" what does that entail? Single turbo and all the tuning stuff? Also, what is your expected time-frame for completion? You can't throw us a bone like that and expect us not to bite!

Subscribed! Very interesting!

Good work Jay. Look forward to seeing more details as they come available.

Cool, so when it comes out will people have to wait a year for the associated parts to ship?

I don't believe this to be a rhetorical question either. We have had turbo kits that were shipped in stages, not complete when purchased.

Subbed we want moaaaaaar info!:)

Can you keep the rx8 trans if you want?

Ac, powersteering delete? Rx8 front cover? Ems? Conversion harness? Speedometer? Cel? I wanna know!!!:)

I would say some of those depend on what ECU you want to use to run the REW ... I am not sure how complete this swap kit is, but I doubt that will be included.

For example, there is no reason to run an rx8 front cover if you are using a Power FC or similar

Hmm I see where your going.there.-.- what about the Ac lines? Vacume for the brake booster? Throttle body drive by wire or mechanical?

i am not sure where the ac compressor sits on rew, but I would imagine that you would need custom ones

Vac for brake booster? Post throttle? Why is that hard? I am sure the FD has a brake booster....

Throttle ... think about that for a sec ... the rx8 is drive by wire ... the FD isn't ... you can keep drive by wire if you bolt up the rx8 throtle body ... but then you need to keep the rx8 ECU
