Now, sweetheart, what makes you think that you can spend very little money and have a reliable car that runs 12 second quarter mile times? You can spray a 200 shot on your D16 and pull a 12 maybe one time or you can slap a GSR motor in your car and run a low-14 on street tires with a great launch and good driving.
There is no "budget 12-second EG" formula that gets you 12's for cheap. Think before you post.

Re: best engine in an eg coupe? (Archidictus)
Following up with what Arch said, it's just not realistic. In order for you to have a fast car that is reliable to get you the times you want it's going to cost a pretty penny. If you want to have a fast car, it's not going to be cheap, period.
This is with anything in life, if you want to get a respectable (keyword) well paying job you need to attend a good college to get that education, chances are those schools aren't going to be cheap.

"low budget"-boosted ls with stock or even gsr tranny. tons of ppl ran mid to low 12's with slicks making 300whp on stock block. ls swaps come a dime a dozen.

Re: (EkSi)
Cheapest would be turbo d series for sure. And you would have money left over to make it reliable compared to a B series turbo setup that's going to put a deeper hole in your wallet. That's not taking horsepower into consideration, you can make a hell of a lot more power with the B series, but it will get you into the 12s.

Re: best engine in an eg coupe?
if you dont have money why build a car what is the point in only building a car part way? why dont you just save up some money and build the car to be exactly what you want it.
