What should I do?

I have a 95 GS. I want to keep this car for a while. Droping lots of cash into it. I was thinking about droping a turbo in the car this summer. But I realized that my engine was not made for turbo. So I was thinking of putting in a new engine. this I am thinking about getting one of those. What do you guys think.

Re: What should I do?

If you dont want to get a GST or GSX then you could just turbo your 420A (the engine you have now)

But if i were you i would just swap for a 4G63...they look nicer then the 420A's and the 4G63 can take alot more then the 420A.I'm not sure how much 4G63 with tranny and every thing you need to install it cost.But its really up to you.

About SRB's short block's.I dont think that comes with a head and i dont think it comes with the turbo and everything.Then again...i could be wroug.

Dont ever diss the 420a's again. They can be tubroed did you read the sticky at the top. The 4g63 swap would cost over 5 grand go for it, if you want.

The 420a does have potential that is unrealized by those who don't have one. Doing an engine swap with the 4g63 would be expensive and it would take a lot of time. The engines face opposite directions so most of the engine bay would have to be repositioned.
