turbo is the only way you will really beat other cars.
its the most simple way to get shit loads of power. other mods arn't really efficent.
just my opinion

i'd have to agree with that. an engine conversion is easily do-able for 5k. if you want change you're probably better off going for the ca18det because you'll need engineers cert for the engine mounts n shit. otherwise the 4zci piazza turbo will bolt straight in. depends on what power you want.

the 4Zc1 does NOT bolt straight in. engine + g/box mounts need to be modified.

ok, but how much will it cost me too replace the standard 1600 with a CA18DET or SR20DET..the half cuts of these are about 2500 - 2800 and then how much will it cost me to get it installed with everything that needs to be done, done???
