O.k O.k O.k.... Now I have been reading these posts for the past year. I dont say much but I noticed... whenever someone talks about moding there car we constantly come to the 3s-gte swap whatever ever gen1,2,and the almighty 3. Now take that number of recomendations to the number that have actually done the swap, now take that number to those who can actually AFFORD the swap. Given its a good recomendation but lets get real were all pretty much stickin with N/A. Now before I get bashed I love i mean love the 3sgte but its more feasible wallet wise to get down on some serious AFR nology plugs and maybe some cam regrinds. It would be in alot of peoples best intrest to hear some serious knowledge on N/A tune ups. But thats my opinion I could be wrong.....
P.S. I love you guys, dont shun me out

BINGO!!!! i fell ya bro..I work for best buy too (home theater wooo!!!) and i go to college full time and i'm on my own and have no money and as we speak i am close....very very close to a custom CT-26 turbo job on my 98 GT (with the help of some buddies on 6gc and at a shop close by) and I too am sick of the way that as soon as a new member or any member starts to mention any way to boost power, whether it be exhaust, header, sparks, plugs, internals whatever....the very next reply is..."you're just throwing your money away just get a swap" lets face it....swapping engines is easy to some and others are dead in the water when faced with such a feat. Guys who have talked about doing a swap (any engine) far outnumber those who have actually done it after the turbo i'm done with performance....i want the best bang for my buck and i'm getting a killer deal on an entire kit and i bet you anything i can womp plenty of kids around here and down at the track....granted with a 3sgte or 4age or something i could kill a helluva lot more people but i just cant afford that bottom line-----a swap is suitable for some and not for others....so please stop shoving the idea of a swap down the throats of ANYONE who starts asking questions about performance lets face it....jdm engines of any type are not readily available to some and ordering one off ebay really cant be the best idea (i got something about putting that much dough into something i cant put my hands on at time of purchase) there.....i'm done |
