I currently have a st so i have pretty much desided i want to so a 4A swap, but i'm not sure what one? or should i rebuild my 7A-FE and either super charge/turbo it. I don't have to have a super fast car, just tired of the car being so slow. Any insight would be helpful. thanks

Like Hanyo said, If you want to stick with a A-series engine and emissions isn't a problem for you, then suggest getting a ae101 4agze. At stock it puts out a good amount of HP and torque. And like all swaps, you'll run into some trouble besides engine replacement would be like making a wiring conversion for the car, routing your vac. lines, getting other essential parts to get the engine to run properly, and redoing the exhaust system. But with the 4agze, you would need to make custom intercooler lines and run a front mount intercooler if the factory overhead intercooler doesn't clear the stock hood. And since it's a 16v, you can definitely find maintenance parts alot easier here in the US compared to another JDM engine like a 20v 4age. So consider going down the 4agze route, I think it would benefit better if want to stick with an A-series engine. And you can always boost it later in the long run when your up for it.
