im still blown away at the fact that people cant seem to wrap their head around that. An ls swapped frs can weigh almost the same and have the same center of gravity (front to back) as a turbo'd frs. The fa20 sits obnoxiously far forward in this platform.
Will it ruin the cars purpose? That depends on the cars purpose to you. Will it be a momentum car anymore? nope. WIll it handle well? Yes. Will you be able to drive it at 10/10th on the street and ring its neck in corners on public roads? Not anymore. But neither can i with a turbo and good tires.
