Who can do my Turbo Conversion?

Upstate NY area. Trying to find somebody to get my RX-7 up and running again. If possible give me soem quotes if you provide the parts and if I do. Looking for an S4 Turbo II conversion into my 1988 Convertible. Rebuild the engine and do the whole driveline. Wanna get the RX running so I don't have to drive my crappy VW lol.

Don't think I don't see all you viewing this post lol. If you don't know of somebody ask a buddy with a RX. Maybe they know. I was going to take my RX to Kevin Landers in Tennesse, but thats alot of money to ship the whole car and then go pick it up. Plus I don't think he is doing conversions right now. I know Xtreme Auto in Newbergh on 9W, but they want alot of cash. Any help would be great.

Why don't you try and do it yourself? There is lots of information on this topic. I can tell you, having turbo'd my 88 GTU, that it's not really that hard. If you need help with the swap or building/porting the motor, feel free to PM me, I've done it all before.

The problem with doing it myself is I do not have the tools nor the time. And no, I do not have any of the parts. The Engine, Trans and ECU are easy to find. The rest of the driveline I find difficult to find.
