Turbo 4 Port 13B ?

Currently have a '76 four port 13B in my 1980 RX7. Street Ported with RB header, exhaust & Holley setup. Electronic Dist. Runs extremely well at top end or down low, never could get the Holley to cover the spread. Thinking of going FI & Turbo.

Noticed that the ports of the 4 Port are very close to the TII ports on the 2nd gen. I have the complete intake & exhaust manifolds from a TII, and it doesn't seem to be that big a deal to make an adapter plate to bolt the FI intake onto the older 13B.

Idea is to Fuel Inject and turbo the 13B, using a DIYPNP box to run things.

I am sure that this has been done before, but I haven't seen any record of it anywhere. I would be most appreciative if anyone out there who has tried this can share their experience so that I won't be making as many mistakes doing it on my own

Idea for this is our '86 TII - keep thinking of that power in my lightweight '80 model

Thanks

Henry

Actually, except for vintage applications, I am done with carbs. Since I want to add a turbo to this car, Electronic fuel injection is really where I want to be. Forced induction with a carb isn't anything I want to tackle.

My question really was has anyone else tried to add the Turbo II set up to the previous generation four port 13B's?
