I don't think kswap will cost that much in a FD....

especially since they came with K's to begin with

How many KMs on a full tank do you get out of your fd turbo daily driving Stevil?

David, your car has a K. So don't waste money swapping it.

Instead, if you want to go down the N/A route, get aggressive cams, intake manifold, bigger throttle body, etc. Combined with exhaust and intake good for 30kw gain.

Turbo? will not decrease the life of the engine unless you hoon it daily and boost it beyond 8psi.

Also you can't compare yours to Stevil's because he has the R18 and you the K20. However, my turbo K20 has better fuel efficiency than stock due to the insanely good (and expensive) tune.

Side note, yet another new blow off today due to my old one cracking in the heat.

Contemplating ordering it in.

Never mind, found a post from the malaysians saying it does. sawwwwhhheeeet.

FD2R Bonnet is slightly shorter than AUS FD1/2 & has subtle 'V' shape on front sides. But can fit fine, straight bolt-on.

Ok with the NA route what aggressive cams are suitable for my fd2, also what intake manifold? (would a rbc intake manifold combined with injen intake do? from jdmyard?), and what throttle body would be suitable? and with all this i would need a tune to gain that 30kw ? How much is this going to all set me back approximately and would it be worth the bang for buck?

or would a turbo k20 be a better choice bang for buck? i dont mind going either ways.
How much did your Turbo kit cost+ labour cost and how much was the tuning? and how much extra power did u make out of k20 turbo + tuning

My fuel economy on the freeway is actually slightly better (750km 44 litres) around town its the same as before you just dont rev it as much !! Since I started running e85 this week fuel economy has gone down by 10-15% around town. With E85 20 cents cheaper than 91 fuel it works out the same.
