4a-ge swap, to do or not?, power benifits? Options

[Digndoug]

ok, i came across a fairly good deal on a 4a-ge engine, as far as i know its only th engine, no ecu, trans orv anything else. i have an st and as iv read so far its closer of all the swaps for an easier project, im planing to do this myself, iv been working on cars and engines for the past 10 years. so im just starting off, but can my trans fit direct up to fit, and is this even worth doing?? like what is the exact power ratings?

well, it also matters which version of the 4a-ge you found....

the 20V's are going to be a bit harder... you will need the ecu and wiring.... all previous 4a-ge's and the 7a-fe are all non vvt/vvt-i......

if you found a bluetop (first gen) 4a-ge, then you will need an ecu as well, disconnecting the t-vis doesn't do the engine any justice... it was designed to use it.....
