2 grand's a pretty noticeable difference. **** thats an exhaust and new cams. or half way to a very complete very nice tuned turbo setup. however watever engine u pick (even if LS) u should at least try to get an ITR tranny

a type r motor is basically a suped up gsr motor
the bore and stroke is the same
the itr has high compression pistions, bigger cams, dueal valve springs on the exhaust side, lighter intake valves, pp head, single stage im
