Is there a different head i can put on this car to make it more powerful? and give it better tunability? 5s-fte or 5s-gte don't really know the difference between the two of those but any way could i change the head on my engine with another head so that way later on down the line all i'd have to do is get a turbo kit? i don't know alot about cars so as much detail as you can give would be greatly appreciated.

the biggest thing everyone here is forgetting, or seems to forget, is to get a 5sgte to run, its basicly a 3sgte swap, and in actuality, to use the extra displacment of the 5s bottom end, you really want to be running a full standalone engine management system.
its DEFINETLY not a "budget" setup by ANY means...unless you have all the 3sgte parts, custom pistons, and someone to machine the 3s rods for free for you... -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)
