Do what you want. Personally, I wouldn't do either.

You need to decide a number of things.. Goals: is it a daily, do you want to race(drag/auto cross), etc... Figure those out with a HP goal, then people can give options..

Look at a swap first, full LS, or GSR.. Then you can find smaller turbo kits, little more to it, but the LS/v is fine only when done right.. Since you don't know much then get qoutes on a swap first, then turbo.. Gotta pay to play homie!!

Yeah, most times it's better to build what you have, so you know for sure.. In your case you still need a swap to start with..LOL

Do what's really matter. 5lug conversiOn dont make drive any better. Ek front look retarded on the hatch.
I say put the money in engine and paint.

If you are talking about replacement, its easy. If you are going bigger, I don't know what all is involved.

oh so got a few new ones guys: found out the bolts on my exhaust manifold are not all there; two are snapped off, with half of them still inside the manifold. thinking of tearing it down and rebuilding the d15b7, but also debating on gettin ahold of a clean d18. got any info on cheap/reasonable rebuilds, and would it be worth in in power?
