Rebuild- street parts renesis
 
Hey my engine lost compression recently, and I'm planning on rebuilding the renesis, thing is i have turbo , so i am wondering what parts should i order and where should i order them from, my purpose is street , so i'm looking for reliable parts that would help my motor sustain the turbo for everyday driven car.

Or is it better to swap it with 13b-rew(by geting the engine, ECU and transmision)?

The question really is not about power, its about quality and value for the money that im going to spend.

My engine has went bad on me as well I asked the same question if I should do the swap. A company called Turblown here in Az is doing mine. The thing is u don't know what part that u will need u less you completey have your engine broke down. Also do know if u decide to go with the 13brew u will not know how long it will last u and if that engine goes out u will need a rebilt that may run up to 5000+ if it needs to be rebuild. plus if dropping in a 13b rew was simply a lot of us would have one. U need custom engine mount. An ems custom drive drive shaft. The questions that u need to ask your self how much do u wana spend, this is your dd. How much down time are u willing to decacate to this car.

Not enough for a port, apperantly after research, porting makes no sense, because i have 4k USD, thing is what parts do i need for my engine to make it turbo sustainable, after opening it, what is the best recomended stuff to change besides the lots of rings that i have to change because they are not reusable.

For my recent rebuild the only major change I made that would not normally be done on an N/A rebuild was put in Esmeril apex seals . Supposedly these bend rather than break when you detonate so your don't lunch all your housings .

Get a properly built motor, don't cheap out on yours.
Hook Mazmart, he will set you straight with a cool deal. I would rise the oil pressure and put some spacers on the e-shaft pellet. Premix and get a rock solid tune.
except for the esmeril seals, of which there is no proven feedback yet, all the other seals cost A LOT of money and 99% of the turbo guys get along without them.
Are you in europe? let me know if you don't end up getting a mazmart engine and need help with the rebuild :)

would that be creativity, understanding the mathmatical/spacial relationships, or something more sinister like patience or experience
