there are so many pros and cons to both the 3sge and 5sfte. although the 3sge is cheaper, im not sure i have the mechanical ability to swap the engine successfully although it would probably be more reliable than the turbo setup. however, the 5sfte makes more power, i can put it together, BUT it also costs more and is less reliable. the 3sge is also a tough motor to find. what do you guys think?
edit: i have a 5th gen, so if anything id prob. be swapping a 2nd gen 3sge This post has been edited by ummmx2: Oct 13, 2005 - 11:34 PM |

ok well imho dont get a 3sge unless its a beams...only gonna be like a 30-40 hp gain over ur 5sfe...i dont think the wiring hassle it worth 30-40hp with an engine that doesnt have much more potential....if ur gonna swap put in a 3sgte so at least you have some aftermarket turbo potential and over 200hp
