Engine Swap Advice:
I posted this in the FI forum, but just wanted to see what anyone else thought:
well, after about 5 weeks of "the motors on its way" he flaked and said that b20 motors are soooo hard to get. he can have one in a week he said or i could get a b18b,c,c5 etc or i can just have my deposit back(which is nice to know). i want to make tq so im staying away from the 1.6 motors. what do you guys recommend. do you guys think i should stay with trying to go with the b20(i really like the #s it puts down on boost)? or i could go b18b and boost it too. if i go b18b im that much $wise closer to getting the turbo kit too. gimme info fast please. i want my bone stock vx to scoooooot. Thanks.
