Take it to a reputable shop and get it done right would be my advice.

It really depends on what you get from the company you're buying it from.

The website you listed seems to list all the major components you need but when they call a MAF a Master air flow, that worries me a bit.

Its always better to have the shop youre getting it installed from source the engine for you too, so you wont have an problems searching for parts.

Edit: and why do you want to swap in an S15 SR when you have a redtop already?

And why are you attaching pics to your posts? They don't seem particularly relevant to the discussion. Or do you not know how to use pictures in your signature?

you can donate your old sr to me if u get a s15 one. but really why not just stick with the redtop and put your money into it.

And more importantly how the hell did you, an unknowledgable 16 year old kid, come into a $10,000 engine-swapped car?

LOL, maybe, just to clarify, some people should add "Rich Ignorant Parents" to their lists of mods.

Q: "How did you get your car to run 12s?" A: "Dad was glad I looked like him when Mom squeezed me out." God knows that'll go A LOT further than a HKS SSBOV.

That or "31psi genuine heifer pewpew."

I'm burning alive for this. Mods, do what you must.

Nah, I mean if I were some rich yuppy dude I'd probly spoil my kids too but I wouldn't go out and buy them some illegal rice-rocket with an engine swap of unknown quality. I can't really hate the spoiled kids for being spoiled because I wish I woulda been spoiled too but it just seems a bit irresponsible to buy little Billy or Johnny or whatever an improvised sports car at 16. =\

Maybe it was just the buying of a good looking car, and fronting the money for modifications that you have no idea about.

Or part of a bargain to keep Timmy quiet about those late night phone calls "to the office."

Engines are cheaper than marriages. LOL.

DEFNITELY wouldn't pay to make my kid's car fast, especially seeing as the chances are it's going to be wrecked anyhow. Just speaking statistically here...
