Some may like… no wait love the VQ swap, but call me a traditionalist I’ll stick with what my car came with, and then eventually boost the piss out of it maybe that should eventually be my license plate: VQ WAT?
There is a guy in Saskatoon selling a VQ35DE here is the add. I think he wanted $1100 for it

Travis has had his issues, but trust me there’s more to every story than what you hear. I know him and know a lot of stuff that other people don’t know about him and abuot a lot of business he’s done. He’s made some mistakes there’s no doubting it, but anyway, he’s got good intentions.
Anyway, the VQ swap, evn though they are trying to offer a kit for it, isn’t going to exactly be somethign you’re goign to do in your driveway if you don’t have any experience doing this sort of thing. A turbo kit can be installed fairly easily if you have even limited know how and can turn a wrench and read directions. Also, this swap needs a few thousand road miles to show it’s true face… whether or not it will create other problems etc.
Great job on it none the less. I wish those guys the best of luck. Nothing wrong with a high 12 sec run that’s for sure. I’ll be sporting 400 whp by spring though, so the VQ will still eat a little QR dust.
