Although I'm a Toyota nut, realistically the Datto 1600 will have better handling any day but will be more costly if you go the SR20 way ...

if you're going to go the SR20, go the DET
sure the insurance will be a bit more, but they'll put out 250+kw on stock internals all day every day and never break

go sr20det in ke25 corolla...
A Dat 1600 in good condition will be hard to find and most likey cost a bit aswell.
SR20 is one of the strongest 2L turbo engines around. The toyota equivalent would actualy be the 3sgte not a 4agze

Im goin with the 20/25 idea aswell. 13bt/sr20det/4ag-ze (4ag-te) etc. Although i do have a soft spot for the 1600!.
