How to get a faster car out of my st. Options

[Apevely]

Ok so i have a 95 st. I just rebuilt the 1.8 5000 miles ago as soon as i bought it. Im 16 and this is my first car and ive been driving for a couple months and am already bored of it. I simply want something faster. I already have brand new rims, c-one body kit and racing fenders and a new paintjob so now im looking to get this thing moving. I havent read much but ive read about the beams engine. So my question. I either want to A.) Build my 1.8 and turbo it. B.) Buy a 2.2, built it, turbo it. C.) Buy a jdm swap beams etc., and possibly turbo it. I just want some suggestions on what i should do. Money is not an issue but i dnt want to spend over 2500. Thanks to anyone that trys to help.

for any swap you're looking at spending at least 6 grand minimum... from what im told.

do some searching buddy, ALL the probable, possible, and impossible motor swaps for a 6gc have been discussed too many times.

also some great build threads to follow.

edit: anyway, no disrespect but at 16 id be more focused on becoming familiar with the car and becoming a better driver, driving techniques, etc.

Ok maybe im just not understanding but a beams engine is 2500. My dad can do the swap. therefore not being a smartass just simply asking for someone to expalin how its gonna cost another 3500 to put the motor in?

this guys had his family mechanic do his but failed
