Ooo Ooo Ooo,

and you can even sell me the carb, intake and exhaust manifolds! :armsup:

But seriously i'd have to agree, light boost, g16b efi motor and go straignt to an aftermarket ecu, You probably could get a bare block ex-japan real cheap

Hey
Go the ca18 if u want a motor that is desinged for a turbo or supercharger. Yes there's a bit work in putting it in the car, but there alot cheaper to bye than 16efi vitra. U get the a turbo ca18 for $1500 if u look around, if not get a ca18 de and put one on. I got another ca18de for $500 last week (with every thing i need) and putting it in my brothers 1 L zook ute. THere out there.
