I've read about some nightmare stories and Im kinda leary about the whole thing.But I would love to see what it could do!

Originally wanted a 4 rotor monstor but I think it would cost way too much
adding another rotor,coil,and wiring shouldnt cost an extra 10-15k
To do it right you will need 30k for shure. Motor cost + rebuilt, turbo kit, fuel components,tranny ugrade, twin plate clutch, diferential and axle upgrade.

Might be some that i missed. You will need all the right components that cost alot of $$ to have a healthy 20b powerd car.

You welcome.

You could put a stock 20b with its twins tuned to make 300-310 whp for about $15-20,000. Going to a 20b with a single turbo is going to cost at least $35,000 done well. (It can and has cost people $50-75,000 and possibly more to do what they wanted with a 20b single...) I have a 20b NA and a 20b GT42R and have some idea what it takes to do these.

Knowing what the parts cost doesn't mean anything at all and I wouldn't listen to anyone who tells you that $30,000 is f'ng ridiculous. They either have no idea what they're talking about or are planning to rip you off.

If you are anywhere near Ohio, Logan at Defined Motorwerks is your guy, imho. If you are further east, Dave at KD Rotary does a great job. If you are close to Florida, Jesus Padilla is the guy. Those are the only guys I know to recommend, but others can chime in from other parts of the country.
