And a load of more problems to deal with too ... Good luck with three or twice the power making the car do what you want without swapping ends all the time .. I wouldn't think that you could really get any worthwhile info on any engines from those tuners over-there , like a lot of there information on web sites , in books like the trd bible etc , gives you lots of specs , but not really any info , Like springs on in the trd bible , it gives you specs apart from heights , so you cannot work out the spring rate over the spring travel , so how do you adjust the shock to suit , measure the spring yourself . I will not even start on the useless engine sections ... If you really want to see a lot of specs that doesn't give any secrets away have a look on the tomei site . hours of reading which tells you shit , just give money and there will do it for you .
Since you have seen the Drift Bible , can you read Japanese ? If so i think you should maybe watch the ae86club instead ... Hot version etc . To see lots of different engines against one another . And i wouldn't go discounting a engine from another manufacture for some cheaper power ...
