So i am now leaning more towards turboing my 5sfte instead of doing a 3's swap.
Wouldn't the 5 have a great power potential over the 3's because it is a 2.2L and not a 2L? If i do all the work to turbo it myself, i can use my extra money to stroke the engine, but if i do that would that maybe be to much horse power for the motor? Has anyone stroked thier engine and what was your gain in hp? I've seen some posts say for around a $2,500 it make your engine put out around 300hp... Thanks for the info...

Dude Lagos is just stating the facts. If you were to take your car to a shop to get a 3s swap done and its your dd. Wouldn't you want to press on it getting done fast?
