Yes maybe he should have, but if you got the money, why not the R motor?

Would your response have been the same if his car was a gsr and he swapped an R motor? or are you just a fan of turbos?

Lets not forget that just because it's a DC5 doesnt mean you cant swap the motor......btw what happened to the rsx motor?

It was a base model, K20a3, that was boosted on a custom turbo kit i put together. The oil pan gasket got a leak and blew on one day on the interstate. I broke a piston ring so i just sold that motor, the kit, and other supporting mods i have and bought this motor for a 1000$ difference.
