I see the ecotec is way at the back of the pack... Anything with aluminum sleeves should not appear on this list.

John Shep is making an estimated 1300 horsepower from the 4G63t

Mitsu reliability pwns you.
Replace the capacitors in the ecu every 7 years and you wont have the problem's with the ECU frying.

Didnt we already have this discussion before? With the money spent swapping and upgrading the SR, you can have a better KA. Its like that with damn near every single engine swap. "My shit is custom"

...and this whole time i could just run a Lukovich 632, twin 91mm turbos, and not even worry about a b16sr81a01 or any other combination of assinine letter combinations designating some 4 cyl of fury that everyone here thinks they will build for cheap but never do.
