I knew I should have taken my vacation days

It's amazing how some people will close their eyes, stick their fingers in their ears, and pretend reality doesn't exist whenever they don't get the approval that they're looking for. God forbid they admit that their brilliant idea is actually a complete waste of time, money, and energy. No, lets die on that hill defending the idea and personally attack anyone who doesn't fall in love with it.

Not about anyone in this thread. Another thread that keeps coming up occasionally.

An LS swap makes sense, so let's not do that. Let's swap in some random fucking V6 that makes barely more than the OEM block makes and weighs a lot more and doesn't fit under the hood anyways.

You know what ours can do? Fit in the engine bay with the hood down. But that's ok. 300 hp. And it works in a Miata, so it must be good.

Let's drop a Ford 5.0 in it then. Those work in Miatas too. There are even kits for that.

Bolt in! Is there an off the shelf adapter for the ECU?

In scrolling I somehow originally missed ichi's post and these two were in succession. I was baffled how they were related until I scrolled again and saw what was between them.

PTuning's kit has at least three hamsters. It's high quality.
