If you are sitting on a turbo kit, the answer is pretty simple.

As for your which engine to swap question, read this thread. Scan all the subjects that are already written up for you. Including "Engine Swap".

NO. well technically yes, if you spend enough money to buy 20 SE-R's.
Just throw a simple t25 setup on your car and you'll have fun.
