200sx ser. Swap or boost?
So should I swap my 96 200sx ser? or just boost it (i have a turbo kit on hand). if I were to swap it, what engine should I swap it for?

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".

De is not vvl. False info. You want an sr20VE

what about skyline engines? they seem cheap. around 1.5k. would they fit in the 200sx?

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.
