Sweet setup bro! What did you give for it?

I don't know what all you got with the motor such as CAS, Water Pipes, and so on. There are a few links and topics on the swap. Rather than repeat what is already documented just do a search for a six bolt swap.
 
Yea I have most of that stuff like CAS and what not for the install, im not worried about the parts for install im talking more on the side of performance parts that I should get to go along with the setup thats already there or is there nothing else needed.
 
I don't know what your using the car for: Daily Driver, Drag Racer, or Auto X but I put an external oil cooler on mine. I purchased the stock part that allows you to do so and plumbed in a B&M oil cooler core with AN fittings and hose. I also upgraded my radiator to a fluidyne and with that needed slim line fans since the stockers hit the bigger turbo.

Everything revolves around what you are going to do with the car.
 
Yea I have fluidyne rad. also. I am looking into making it into the 400hp range somewhere and be running mid 12's to mid 11's when at the track. But it is also a showcar so I guess you could say it is kinda a daily driver, it gets stored in the winter and is driven only in the spring and summer when its nice out, usually not in the rain unless it cant eb avoided. I take care of it alot so I guess I'm looking for it to be realiable at the track and for the daily drive.
 
I was wondering where you got the engine from and how much did it cost you? I have been looking around lately to see how much they run and trying to decided whether I want to go ahead and do the swap. Thanks
