I am currently building my turbo 4 cyl motor for my other car again cause its addicting but if I had it to do again id build a fox body.

I understand that. Im not doing it just to be fast. If I wanted that I would of got a V8. I wanted something that no one had. do you know how great it feels to pull up to a ZO6 vett and know you can rape him. My car makes over 460rwhp on low boost. Everyone has a fast Civic and a V8 is easy to make fast. I have had 5 motors in this car. I have spent $40-50k + the car. The car is not really built for drag, it works well there but it still has all of the stock susp, only springs. If I wanted to run SCCA all I would need to do is change out the tires and put some good susp on it.
Building a 4cly may be a waste of $, if you only want to go fast. But it is worth it if you have a car no one else has. If I can have one of the top 5 fastest s2k in the world then it was worth it. Right now there are only 3 faster known s2ks
