so its not worth spending the money for it then?

Yeah; 220hp+ for 7 grand will keep me away from this swap for the time being. I'll keep my turbo D and keep on replacing broken parts for way less than that. Would I like to have a K swap?...sure...maybe in a few years when the cost comes down a couple grand. But this is the same argument I've had against swapping a B series, so I guess it will never happen.
