I was thinking JDM K20A Swap
I'm looking for a light engine, reliable, easy to source parts, no internal mods on the engine just supporting mods that's capable of 400whp...without affecting the FRS handling ???

It's more work than it's worth... But really id imagine the K24a2 would be best because torque. But it well affect handling minutely as the center of gravity will be off. Still very much not worth the trouble and cost

A simple turbo upgrade and E-85 gets you 400+whp/tq easy. As far as how this motor would sit in our car and what trans it would work with I am clueless on. I actually own an SRT-4 too. |

Car isn't much to look at other than the swap, IMO. |
