Ok I have the money for an N/A setup. Then i realized (hey I can do the swap!!)
So like a good boy, I have decided to do it. Well now that my hearts and wallet are in it so I have to be 100% sure of EVERYTHING. I went to Altered Atmosphere (east coast) they quoted me 1100-1400 labor and the car out for a month. But the downer was no one there could do the wiring and recomended a stand alone ECU thats like $1700!!! so im trying to Qatar11(aol) to do this for me.
Now I have an auto im sure we know.. so Im hoping-no praying with the rebuilt T.C. that it will handle the power of the motor (1st uncertainty).
Would it be aight you guys think if I had a friend who has done 3 swaps just put up the engine alone, since she bolts right up and have the wiring done through Qatar11? So what Im saying is, is it easy enough for a guy with enough knowledge to simply put the motor in or is there alot of cutting and extending lines, hoses and such? Please put forth any information or advice you have or thoughts (+/-). Im very close to it I just need to be a 100% sure on the basics and all cuz this is a major investment and gamble.
