im doing the T11 swap in my 1 gen, i have motor yet, but i got offered a 13b tt out of a cosmo (same engine out of a fd bat??) i would like to know if a s4 turbo gearbox can handle the 13btt??, im going to port the engine too. Would s4 coils work with this engine??? im going to put a wolf 3d into it as well. and what else would i need to make this work with the 13btt??? thanks 4 your guys help!!!

 

Yes tot he trans question and yes to the coils question, but I recommend going haltech it seems easier to use and install, I heard some stuff about the wolf I didnt like

 

Make Sure you check out the Sticky Thread on top of this Forum:

How to put a Turbo II into your 1st Gen

 

Hmmm, I don't know if I'd ask Mikey-P, he seems to think that a V-8 is a better choice (a la his little quote).

 

Im being sarcastic Anyways, whats in my engine bay? Hummm? Hummm? By the way engine and transmission and turbo are all in there to stay this time

 

The Cosmo engine is the 13B-RE, the FD engine is the 13B-REW. (Just as a heads-up - there's no such thing as a "13btt")

No they are not the same engine. The Cosmo engine has bigger ports and smaller turbos...

 

Yeah true, but what I dont get is, since the W stands for twin, why the 13b-RE dont have a W on it. Since it is a twin turbo Rotary.. Yeah I tossed those little puny twins they were SMALL.

 

mike, i'll be in town shortly and i want to see this puppy now that its put together.

 

Get the Cosmo engine!!

 

W means "double" as in double turbo... apparently it's easier for the Japanese tongue to try to say W instead of double.

I don't get it either. All I know is the Cosmo engine is the one to have... better ports AND the intake manifold looks better
