Ok, I know with the 3s-gte everything has been coverd, but i dont think this has.

My question is, Are you glad you went through with it, spending the money the time the head ach and such. Compared to buying a stock car with more power and going from there or somthing else.

I personally think the swapping process alone (assuming you're gonna DIY), the learning process, is well worth the investment. You not only come out with a faster car in the end, but you gain more experience, more hands-on knowledge, more insight, and that's really the most important aspect of working with cars. Building something you can be proud of...

In all honesty, if speed is all you want, there are cheaper ways to get there. Only do a swap if you're willing to dedicate yourself to it.
