Do alot of research take your time, once you have the money find a good shop that you can trust and let them do all the work.
Agreed for the most part.
However there are two sides to this, not every mod is the best idea under the sun. I mean i knew a kid that wanted to turbo his stock honda civic motor that had 75 hp.
Could you swap in an SRT-4 motor? Yes. For the price of the motor and the work to have it done could you almost buy an SRT? Probably.
Cost wise its not really the greatest of swaps (other than maybe insurance). But its a badass little motor. Car and Drive dyno tested the new SRT-4 stock and they said they got 227hp ... at the wheels.
