Sup everyone,
While I'm still trying to get my stock 3.0 to run I have been plagued with a question. VR-4 or Evo? I'm not speaking about the car I'm talking about an engine swap.
I notice that the Evo engine compartment seems a little to cramped and almost everyone is sporting an Evo block when they do an engine swap. So I'm considering a VR-4, but I'm unsure for the moment. This is where you come in and offer your advice which will be eventually disputed by another member who believes that his/her idea and expertise surpasses yours. Do I go Evo or VR-4?? <<<The heated debate that will never die!
Whichever path you help me follow I'm planning on doing a ground up rebuild in a slow progression. My rebuild will consist of reading you're feedback and recommendations as well as a lot of research to compare notes with yours. I will build this block in my dungeon and hook it up to live wires that run to an antenna on my roof which will be brought to life at the strikes of lightnings, I shall name it Frankenstein! I think I'm confusing my reality with Fiction... sorry I got carried away.
In this rebuild I need every detail that will and can be of extreme help, the most I plan on having has to be between 300 - 500HP only because I want to live to see tomorrow, I don't trust myself with fast cars. I want to know about Honing Size, Intakes, Internal Engine Parts (Aftermarket or OEM) Turbo (No NOS Please) anything you can think of, this will be our project, I will record everything once I decide which route and Block to buy. Also please inform me about motor mounts and anything minor that I can add in my engine compartment that will help with the motor's performance.
Thanks for Reading!
Your friendly neighborhood Noob!
P.S. My car is an 03 Galant ES 3.0, it's an all stock car so the options of tuning it are kind limitless until at least it leaves broke.
