The car is amazing with the new motor, and I'm sure you'll like it. It also has been very reliable. I've actually driven around in eastern Ontario all day on Sunday, and the car never had the slightest hint of trouble.
By the way, on the lapping event I went to, only two cars were faster than I was, and these were a modified STI and an M5. All others were biting my dust, including a boosted Miata, an S2000 (w/bad driver) and a few 944's
Maybe the B15 is a bit overweight for the VE, but it still hauls pretty good. It drinks a lot of fuel on the track, however

I'm glad your diggin' the VE. I don't mind the swap at all, it's gone pretty well with all the great help of the forum. So far everything looks pretty clean, I'll get some more pics up soon.
