Yes this is true but none of them look like the fto and no other variant is unique I see heaps of gtr's/gts-t, rx7's, supra and more that I can't think of
Although I would like a gen 2 mr2 that's different I think

Bang for buck id say the 6a13 for sure. Straight bolt up, only slight fabbing needed and gives a solid gain, even when left stock

Don't take it personally lol i'm a dick in general! If you knew me well i'd do anything for anyone! haha
There's a guy on here by the forum name of "syntax" he's putting a 4g69t engine in his fto and it will see pretty good gains of torque and power its a straight bolt on with minimal modifcations needed to fit
or theres the 6A13tt which again mainly bolts up and requires a few modifications... all good options if you have the dough

Roughly what sort of mods for a 6a13 are needed? DIY things or no?
What's is the price range for having a new engine installed?

By my understanding you need a new intake manifold so that the rear turbo will fit and not hit the firewall? and a few other ones that i don't remember...

Yes, because the turbo hangs off the intake manifold...
