#110442, "Which is Better? 420a(built for boost) or Srt-4 motor"


          

I have been looking into getting a daily driver and i think that i actually might be getting a 3.5 altima. So, i have my car nicknames Shamoo (b/c) of the faded black with white everywhere. I am looking at either turbo my 420a and build the block some or to swap in a srt-4 motor. So, i guess i am wondering what i would have to do to get my 420a motor ready for boost b/c i know the srt-4 motor can hold a lot of boost.

I am looking to be cost effective.
Please don't hate on my post and just say by a turbo eclipse i don't want.
Thanx

If your a fabricator, put the SRT-4 motor in. If you cant weld then put the 420A in.


The GST exhaust DOES go under the axle. Wanna see mine?

Edit: you guys are talking stock exhaust.....my mistake. I was referring to aftermarket 3".
