if you want serious power and a cheap price. by a nitrous kit. it is very good for the person who wants there car to be fast when they need it. i use mine just for the track so its great for a daily commuter. oh yeah if your wondering if i have engine problems no and i have been shooting nitruos into my motor since 2003with no problems with the motor.

Well i would say swap it and build it. I have a friend with a GSR swap built that will run 12's all day. I want to build my up soo bad but i don't have the cash at all.

I'm planning on doing nitrous eventually. Are better pistons and such required to not burn up your engine?
An engine swap is gonna be really expensive. Between the swap and the parts i'd need to make it work ur talkin 6 grand or more

not necesarily... depends what engine your gonna get.... and my suggestion is to just get a small turbo and run low psi on a somewhat stock motor.... it will give you a good 60-80 hp and will cost a little more than getting i/h/e... im gettin a turbo kit and installation for a little over a grand so thats just my opinion.
