yea it will be alot of money if you do the ITR swap but thats what you get if want a good motor. and for smoking type r's you would have to spend good money on the turbo setup to get good times cuz his car is automatic, which i would change to manual and all you have to add to the ITR for safety measure is some nitrous which would only cost about 500 bucks compared to 3000-5000 for a turbo setup with no problems, so it really boils down to what he wants, personally if he already has the car with a good running motor then just turbo it now if cash is no problem then go with the ITR motor. but thats just my opinion.
