Yea man I feel you on that end. I just want better throttle response (Headers, Intake) exhaust if it isn't to loud/makes impressive gains for low noise system. Some kind of DBW throttle response system.
Cheap on the engine, all the money is in tires, pads, suspension, rims if stock ones are too heavy.
Now a great engine to swap if the weight wasn't too bad would be a H-6...can't do a prosche engine, but a subaru flat-6...E33? something like that.
I think stock will be the best though honestly. They have the low CG down. Direct injection (torque!). Light weight front end. High revving, hopefully more guts than a s2k..no offense...
Who wants the engine swap headache now anyways? Wait till your 7 year warranty is out..
Unless you are a racing/drifting team a bigger engine will most likely be impractical in terms of money and benefit.
Just my .02 cents
