Yeah your second post should definately address the comparisons between a turbo install and engine swap. I can't stand the over abundance of trolls which plague this site. OP go f#*k your dog!!!

I think kill yourself would be the best option.

Let the record show that Rx8club does not condone cruelty toward animals and encourages trolls to instead go f#*k their blender.

just add a turbo to your 8, no need to swap engines. 20B engines are too expensive, unless you have the money and the time to work on it. 20B is mainly for show. you're better off with adding a turbo system. And also never get swap a 8 for a damn civic
