im from hawaii not that much shops that deal with rotaries here so i might have to do this myself. im not to sure yet if i want to do this swap but if i do can i use the
1. Same mounts off the 13b-msp or would of have to get the 13b-rew : mounts?
2. Can i still use the 6spd trans or i would still have to go with the 5spd trans?
3. Which ecu would i have to use?
4. What axles would be best?

Thankz for your guys advice.

well the 13b-rew tt motor=power i know alot of people did the whole the 20b swap but i want to make most of a twin rotor turbo. JIC's rx8 in japan has the 13b-rew tt motor with converted non-sequential turbos pushing 500 plus rwhp. not that much people did the 13-rew swap and im a person thats like to be different so this would be a sick project if i can pull it off

why do you think that motor can push 500 and this one couldnt?

i know the 20b can get 500rwhp but having a FD power SE would be pretty interesting but dont get me wrong about the 20b its a awesome motor

the tranny should bolt up to the six speed tranny, they also took the middle plate from a renesis engin and block all the exhaust hole then rebuild it with all the other parts from a rew, so you could use the same engin mounts from a renesis.

i was watching the hot version rotary rocket dvd and they showed JIC's 13b-rew powered RX8 and that thing was very impressive (D1 quality). the 3 Japan D1 drivers said that car was a great design of power and control.

i thought so thankz man just needed to know for sure

that info is from the hot version video too, they say how it was built.
got to watch it again to make sure

rx808boi

just buy an FD its cheaper and easier. if you want a turbo buy the greddy kit.

like i said im just thinking about it. i already have this car and i worked hard for it. i just wanted to know what i would need if i wanted to do this swap.

I think it's more cost effective to customize a larger turbo on the Renesis, no?

it's more cost effective to wait a bit for the new FI kits to come out. Mazsport has one that's pushing 400 hp with a cost of around $5k (estimated). There are about 3 twin screw supercharger kits on the verge of being released too. Including one that will be bolt on in about 3 hours and be basically plug and play (Estimated 60-80 hp gains).
