Why spend 8000$ on a f’en 2liter junkyard turbo motor from japan when you can get better usable power and more reliably long term for that money… honestly shouldnt cost 8000$ if you do your homework more like mid-6000ish… and if you start modifying the LS, you’re looking at 400-500whp+ to start (NA, supercharged, twin turbo, pick your weapon)

Um the reason we own a japanese car is to stay away from garbage american engines and electronics, I personally dont know shit about an ls1 and dont really want to learn anything about them sooo yea.
