Im a soon to be ep3 owner who is trying to figure out what would be more beneficial in the long run. Im going to be buying an si (2002-2005) i kno it has a k series but im not sure what the actual model is. I know the type r engine has different specs and a lil more hp than the si, but since i want to start tuning right away after i drop the 7 grand to pay for this sucker should i try and swap the si engine for the type r or does it honestly matter? Will i get the same result even if i dont swap it? O btw dont kill me if i posted this in the wrong forum spot plz, im new here

 

What are you looking to get out of the car? High HP or TQ?

Where do you live?
