if ferdine is going to put down 350k on a K20a engine, then obviously he is emotionally invested in the belief that "VTEC is da best!"

therefore any further discussion is useless.

*alwayz_yummy, regarding engine choices.. it depends on your application. i think the cheapest high horsepower you can get is always gonna be a 4AGE. ang alam ko sub-50k ang makina nun. the 20V with VVTi can do 160+hp already (or is it 175hp) pero very rare. mas common yung walang VVTi.

although the mazda B6T can also be had (quite a few people on protegetech did the transplant). i forget the exact cost, but it's nowhere near 350k! (or even 100k) well it's "only" 180hp so i guess hindi masisiyahan si ferdine dun kasi 180hp "only" tapos turbo na yun..
