The question is "Is it worth it to do this swap or build FA20 with V160?"

Built FA20 heads and all if you went extreme 7k , 3k for the tranny, and Idk how much the kit to mate the tranny is but the FBM s2000 kit is 1k so 11 - 12k for a boosted FA20?(This is assuming you already have an FI kit)

or ~20k for the legendary 2jz?

I was giving this alot of thought last night is it that the 2jz is familiar and we know the limits of it. Is this why we gravitate towards it? I mean whats the difference between 700hp on a built FA20 and 700hp on a 2jz? and in before "the 2jz you can go much higher ect" how many of us would really break 4 digit horsepower?
