Well guys ive been saving my money up all winter for an engine swap and im getting close. I have saved up 1700 so im about 500 dollars short. I want to buy the sliver top engine but im not sure. I want something that ill be happy with as far as HP goes. Now im a novice driver with it come to driving fast cars. Im use to driving my slow 7afe around so I dont know what its like to be in or drive a fast car. The fastest car that I have driven was my sisters V6 MX3. My engine have over 200k miles and I know it will last a long time but I want something faster. Ive only heard one person complain about the performance of the sliver top. I orginally wanted a 4agze but after reading about it seems to be a real pain in the ass to manage but after reading about the sliver top I kinda like it. 5 valves per cylinder, individual throttle bodies seems pretty nice to me. I also plan to get upgraded pulleys and other things as well. Do you all think that I'll be happy with the sliver top? please give your honest opinion.
