You apparently did not read everything I wrote. I clearly stated this type of swap and that I myself did a swap at a young age. Go read through some of the threads on the swap he is talking about that were done by experienced people with fully equipped shops and then come back and tell me I am crazy. I also get the distinct impression that he would be on his own with this. Not sure who he would "learn along the way" from. What does having your car for 8 years have to do with this dude anyway?

How true that is. When I saw Jennifer Connelly in 'Career Opportunities' back in '91, I 'planned' on meeting her one day and making her my wife. Guess how that turned out?

Turbo or supercharge the FA20 first. Most likely you'll drive it for five minutes and forget about wasting 30k on this swap, which by the way is a MASSIVE job even for the more experienced among us. You'll be surprised how mad these little cars can be with just an extra 100 horsepower..

As some legit advice, learn to drive first with a relatively shitty car first before buying expensive, fast things. Work your way up over the years and enjoy the progress, a miata would be great truthfully. As much as I didn't want to admit it when I was 16, yet alone 14, teenagers will get dings, speed, be careless, and likely crash cars. You are learning too, keep that in mind. You will probably crash at some point too, so get a "beginner" car and work your way up before buying a 600whp car. I know youtube and the internet makes high hp crazy cars like "twincharged" seem easy and fun but there is so much time and complexity in these builds you can't even fathom. You will likely be glad later, and the progress is what makes cars fun anyway!
