How big of a turbo are you going to put on it. And I've heard good things from Tii motors plus room.
The TII motors can make good power. There are plenty of people making 400+ RWHP with them. I was going to use my old TII motor in my current car, but I didn't want to ship it from NY, and I found a good deal on a Cosmo 13B RE. The Cosmo motor seems to have the potential for more power, but it depends on what kind of power you're after.

That sounds like more work to me!



But seriously, how much of a gain could that be, because it doesn't sound like much to me.

So many people vote without an explanation...



So I'm supposed to go look at the car not this weekend, but the next...long story about why it's taking so long but that's not important.

Well I have a car now, so I still haven't decided the best route to go. I guess it comes down to the availability of parts.



When something breaks on the Cosmo, will I be able to find the parts needed to fix it? Would this be any different if I had the TII motor?



In all seriousness, I want to go with a T04R.



My only other option would be to turbo my existing 12a...now what I'm wondering is if I can run a T04R blow-through setup until I feel the need to do the swap?



I don't know, just let me know what your professional opinion is...which engine would really "fit" me.
