| 1.) Get some motherfucking Pic's up. 2.) Do a K. For the baller aspect it's a win. And i'm sure people wouldn't mind helping you with the swap if you struggled | |

| if u deffo got the money do A K-SWOP as so many have been done these days, the advice,info and parts are all out there.
but if u want to keep it cheap fast and simple any b-series into an EG is piss easy. and think of the potential for a turbo setup later on with a b18?
you could make a turbo b18 K-killa for half of the overall K20 swap budget.
and forget bout baller aspect as the overall objective with any engine swop well for the majority of people is to have a fast setup.
Thats my advice, trust me if i could choose again i would have kept my b18 setup. | |

| Tesh speakin the truth A k-swap would be sick, but for a full set-up its gonna cost a whole lot, for power that you could get out of a b18. A boosted b18 though wins hands down. Run it n/a while you save up for the turbo parts. You say its played out, but what hasn’t been done now?? Concentrate on making other parts of the car different. | |
