While it's cool, I'm sad to see a 1/1000 limited run vehicle be ruined with a turbo

good build idea, and could have been a good idea to buy a different k20 and keep the mugen addition stored

I don't understand why you guys are so distraught about this…*the motor is no different than a regular Si…*just the car is "mugen"ized

You have a limited number production car, what motor is in it is not the reason I wouldn't do it myself.

Years down the road you could have a completely bone stock vehicle where only 1000 exist in the WORLD. Instead, you installed a turbo kit and put increased wear and tear as well as modified the chassis to accommodate it.

nice....

IMHO even if I had a mugen SI, there's nothing wrong with modding it so long as you can reinstall oem parts.

Personally i would of swapped out the stock motor and installed a built k24.
when i get board, just swap oem motor and parts back. that's just me though.
