The B16 in my EM1 is on its last leg. Since ill be replacing the engine I might as well go bigger. This car is my Daily Driver and it see's auto x a few times a year. I have a $3000 budget to get started. For Drive-ability, reliability and Ease of swap what setup would be ideal?

Not another one of these threads.

Not to be rude. But if ya dont have anything nice or positive to say. Then dont say nothing at all. This is a place to find info and opinions not a Forum of criticism.

Do you have a specific tech question or are you just asking people how you should spend your money?

I said Daily Driver, Auto X, driveability, reliability and "Ease Of swap" with a $3000 budget.....what application would best suit the previously stated criteria.

Either. Ease of swap is relative. No one knows your level of mechanical aptitude. Reliability is also relative since it all depends on how well the swap gets done.

Maybe you should look more at the availability of each and the specs of each and then decide which best meets your criteria.

seriously it all depends on what you want it, what manner you want it in and how much your willing to spend getting it (not just in money but time, parts etc.)

ITR sits around the same HP as an h22a4/JDM h22a
Torque is where its different with the h22 packing more.

either one you will have a closed/flush hood.
