It really just depends on what you are going to do with the car. I love my swap and would never, ever thing of trading boost for it.

It depends- What are you going to be using the car for?

I'd say go with the K, but I'm just a little bit biased.

I like my Honda's naturally aspirated, so I would vote K-swap. On the scale of difficulty, the two options are pretty close to equal.

i was also gonna say do both. Going boost will be a little cheaper but going with the K-swap is more costly but also has a lot more potential if you looking for power.
