I'm at a point where I have 425,000 km on my original 5S-FE motor.
Time for a swamp. So, I ask this. Is it really getting the 3S-GTE swap (instead of a 5S-FE?) What do you think? performance wise? etc etc. (I've got a front clip available) |

If you have the resources availible then why wouldn't you want the extra power. If you can control yourself and keep the boost at stock levels, then I imagine that you'd be able to make a reliable engine. The only reason why I would think that you wouldn't want it is if your car is your dedicated daily driver. In that case, you might want to go for something that is more reliable to be sure that you have a ride from day to day.
