Need to make the final decision soon cause I have prices on all three types of engines and winter is almost here. I have to choose but since I already decided to go with the 4a series engine I'm having trouble choosing which one. They all have aspects that I like. Just need alittle nudge in one direction. Post why you would choose it and hopefully some one will strike a nerve and help. I know all the horse power/torque stats just need the humanistic reasons. Like, more low end torque or better top end or just a well rounded engine. Got a couple weeks to make a final choice. Piggy banks open, ready for those two cents...

I voted for the black top, but that's not what I would personally do.

A while back I posted about getting an old MR-2's 4agze (89 model).

For about 3k, you would have a turbocharged, re-built 4agze with propper pistons and HKS head internal parts. We figured you could boost it to about 20 PSI and be good to go.

If you start cheap, you can get expensive parts to make it better. But if you start expensive,,,

Just my .02
