I am considering an engine swap. I see the 3sge and the 3sgte are both more powerful than the 5s. I can understand the turbo one being faster, but why is the 3sge?
I was reading where the 5s was basically a newer improved version of the 3s, but it looks like it is not as fast, is anything about it better? I have the 5sfe now with a manual. I value reliability, low maintenance and fuel efficiency. Power is great but not the main deciding factor. Thoughts? |
