Just to let you know bro I took a ride in Chefs car and all I can say is WOW!!! It was truly amazing to feel the pull on that car. I would recomend a SR20 but I will not shoot you down on hooking up the GA16!:cool:

Thanks for the props Rob!

As far as my GA16 goes, I love it. At first I wanted to do the engine swap and I have a sr20 sitting in my garage that I could do the swap with but I wanted to be original. Almost everyone has done the swap and I was like "I need originality" and thus a turbo charged 1.6 to me was original. In actuality BEE-R performance has a turbo charged 1.6L and I was like well why can't I do that so I did with some awesome results. It's fun to tell everyone that its a 1.6L under the hood and watch there mouths drop. Even more funny when you take them for a ride.

personnally... i think having all motor is a better braggin right.. sure its popular sr20 drop. but imagine having a m3 guy seeing that you have rear drum brakes and you whoop on him... yet he thinks to himself.. hmm.. no BOV, that 1.6 is fast... lil did he know you have a sr20 N/A

actually, alot of people think that I have the sr20det under my hood and I tell them, nope a 1.6L. Of course no one believes me until I pop the hood.

Hmmm, which would you feel more embarrased to be beat by a sr20 or a ga16. I know I would be pissed if an underpowered car beats me.
