sawp, nitrous or boost. only three viable options for a em2. my ex with aem cold air, dc header and catback only made 113 whp on a dynojet. nitrous will only take you into the 14's if your a good driver. maybe 13.9. but doubtful. boost without forged internals is limited to about 9 psi reliably. swap opens up alot of doors but is expensive.....wanna know what i did. sold it and bought a eg hatch. put a b16 in it, jdm dc header, rsr ex mag and 9l lb flywheel. and i dont have a car payment anymore. and insurance is much cheaper. and im much faster.

If you have 7k, don't waste it and your precious time doing the swap.. Just trade your lx/ex in for new 06 si.. You'll be much faster and definitely much happier...
