Default to engine swap or not?

so i got a 2001 dx with the 1.6L engine, now my question is should i spend the time and money to swap it for a 2.0, or just start building up the 1.6? i do plan on spending alot of money on my car both way.

thanks,
matt

Default RE: to engine swap or not?

I think you should just hook up the 1.6. With the money and timeyou spend on getting the engine and putting it in, you can get a turbo kit from hiboost.com. . with a stock exhaust youll get 150hp so imagine how much more you can get if you get a bigger turbo and intercooler. Heres the link for that http://hiboost.com/TURBOKIT.htm
