i would go for the m2 engine, the calisinda 215 will have more power but be ALOT mroe expensive

i have the money for both engines...i just wanna know what setup would be best to go with besides the fact that the st215 has like 260 hp and the sw20 has 225hp to 245hp...are there any mods i would have to do if i went with the sw20 lsd or will it be a drop in plug and play? thanks for the response

there would be alot of work in either case
if it were me id go w the sw20 one, comes w lsd tranny, if u get teh caldina engine u will have to find a tranny as the caldina one wont work.
youll have to modify the shift linkage and tranny cables as they are backwards on the mr2, then ull have to do the harness and such, powersteering lines coolant lines and all the rest of that. you can send your harness to dr.tweak to get it done, i belive his website if phoenixtuning.com just google dt. tweak or goto celicatech and find him
