Is that the original motor from your car?


I would not trade my fully built B18C5 for a stock K-R! My fully built head alone is worth over 2g's, add the money that it cost to build the block and put it together Im looking at another 5g's plus what my stock B18C5 was worth....u do the math and tell me if his K adds up. At the end of the day you put money into a motor to make your car faster. Ur motor can make 600whp. What more u want? If ur looking to maybe go a NA route and make MAYBE half of what u can on the boost then sure trade. If you want to get the K to the level your B18 is at it's going to cost u MORE money then what you have spent already.

So, my answer would be no. But thats just me...good luck either route brother.

thanks. i was just figuring that the k swap alone was 6k range yea for stock. when thats already put that into it all... i was just going off of the awwwwhh factor that its a k swap.... needless to say sticking with the B...
