I'm interested in dropping a S5 13B into my '76 tx coupe. I would really appreciate any info from people who have done a similar conversion or have any advice or precautions to take. also what sort of gearbox/clutch/differential combo would suit. I inteed to work it up to 300+ horses at the wheels. any info would be great.
could you please email to henis66@hotmail.com
cheers

Depending on which state u live in, the 13B with forced induction may not be permitted. Some of guy's here have run into head-aches with the Department of Transport approval. They end up sticking to a 12A turbo... Check with your local D.O.T to see if the swap is allowable before you leap into the conversion.
