how feasible is this swap? im looking into the BP or BPT swap...but how feasible is a 6cylinder swap into my RS. Keep in mind i need to swap the tranny as well cause my car is automatic right now and i need it standard

Go a spare GS for parts? if not, go with a BPT.

I think it depends on your goals. If you swap in a bp, it will be alot easier, but only about the equivalent to having the k8 in your mx3. However if you boost the bp you will easily surpase the hp of a klze. So it really depends on your goals for the car, and your budget.

Ill be nice and save you the search... anythings "feasible" with the right budget. Barry is right if your looking to swap it in youll pretty much need a GS parts car for wiring and other odds and ends.

The more i thought about it. For the money you would spend converting everything over to the v6, and getting your hands on a klze, you could easily swap in a bp and boost it, and be well ahead in price and hp.

thanks guys. that was my original plan. to buy a BP and just boost it. and as for a budget...not including a turbo...i'd be trying to get a stock BP and muanual transmission+ tranny conversion neccesities + installation for around $2000
