Exclamation Emergency engine question

sup everybody.

my engine just blew something somewhere and i'm going to get some work done, but if it's going to be more expensive than just getting a new engine and dropping it in then i'm going with the bpt. my question is:

1. does the wiring harness match for the bpt from the sohc?
2. how much and where can i get an ecu for the bpt?
3. what from my engine now will bolt on to the bpt? what doesn't?

just asking cause if i'm going to get $1000 dollars worth of work done or whatever, it might as well be to get a new engine instead of to get something fixed.

thanks guys. later

1. no, you need the GTX harness, you could probably get away with a DOHC harness and will have to get creative if you re-use the SOHC harness.
2. Not sure exactly what price, but Braden (turboge) on this list can get you all you need, engine, harness and ECU, you'll also want a new tranny. Oh and also a B code RX7 VAF. You could get away with using a DOHC ECU, but will need some extra add-ons to trick it.
3. throttle body, distributor, alternator(?) maybe a few more, but not much.

so you may see a a much lesser repair price, than a swap price. but no match in the power department

GTX Motor $750
GTX Ecu/Harness/VAF $500
Shipping to east coast $275
Shipping to West coast $175

This will drop in and run, I would recommend a fuel pump upgrade, along with a clutch and tranny/flywheel, intercooler...etc....

i know youve prolly been asked this a million times already bro but when you say GTX motor does that include manifolds? If not what is your price for a full gtx setup. im talkin everthing except the tranny, fuel pump, water pump, and vaf.
