Well I'm actually looking for opinions from people who actually have nad a swap done to THEIR CAR, not just "I know this guy" or "I know that guy"... so anyone else have any input? I know there's more SR20DET's rolling around...

Anyway he took it out to go get the interior put back in and to have the front bumper cut for more airflow to the intercooler. and its going back in the shop after Nisei to get Re-tuned again...needless to say his supercharger unit sucks...he should have gone turbo.

turbo would be the best way for that car so the supercharger suck I was right so is he going turbo or going to finish everything else before he does the turbo

Naoto from Blast did a S15 SR20 to my 97 along time ago when I had that car before the accident I miss that car thats how I know him he is the best around price mite be high but the work is the best I have seen and dont just have the SR20 drop in have the engine strip and remachine I will give you the low low on SR20's
Nissan did a crappy job on the machine work on SR and RB's Naoto did all the machine work to my engine and when I pick up the car when it was all done the engine ran like it was Brand New that and 600HP everything was new

When you blueprint an engine, you basically tear it apart, and compare measurements of each part to the factory specifics, then refinish as necessary so that the specifications of your engine exactly match that of the factory's actual blueprint" of the engine.
I think that's a close enough explanation for you to get the idea
