13bt or 13b-rew

Hi guys I'm new to this site and also to the rotary engine. I was wondering what engine I should work with for a 1991 RX-7. I have heard that it is possible to swap in a 13b-rew with a lot of work and this is what I would like to do if possible. I want to do this only because not many people would take the time and effort to do something as unique as that. However if you guys think that I would benefit just as much performance-wise from a 13bt I suppose that would do as well. I want to aim this engine setup toward drag racing so I was just hoping to pick up a few tips along the way and I heard this site community was very resourceful. Please post any suggestions that you may have for me and especially let me know if you or someone you know has done this swap before!!!

Are you talking about swapping it into a NON-TURBO???
If so, I wouldn't recommend it.

The 13B-REW is a pain in the ***...

Read that and just ask yourself, how much do you want to spend?

RETed's site is probably the best place to start when researching swaps. Ive found his articles (including approx. pricing) indispensible.

Im still waiting on Ted to question my 13B-RE into S4 TII swap strategy
