Thumbs up RX-7 FD3S REW-13B on RX-8
Here are some photo of RX-7 FD3S REW-13B on RX-8. It is converted with single turbo, not sequential.

Very sick but the blue looks out of place. Very impressive though indeed.

Beautiful build, the engine bay looks great. I like the blue actually, gives it some great contrast and looks nice with the polished metal.

This 8 was original a 4AT with turbo. The power it has tranny just could not hold. There were lots problems. So easiest way to get more power and stay rotary is upgrade to RX-7 REW-13B. It uses original RX-7 5 speed tranny. Custom engine subframe. Cuz RX-8 engine sits little more backward. HKS F-Con V Pro (3.24B) on RX-8 factory ECU. Single turbo is base on Garrett M24/AR60 BB. But I think it is too small. Custom drive shaift.
