Looking to buy a fully built 6 bolt, head, and cams. (I think?)
My 7 bolt has a warped head, and an oil pan leak, as well as a few minor ticks that are more annoying than worrisome.
I have her at about 350hp as a daily, and I love this car to death. I don't want to scrap it and get another and worry about a whole new list of problems. The body is almost ready for paint ( I just need seat adapters and a new hatch) and she's done cosmetically.
The engine has barely 118k on it. New clutch. Big 16g.
I'm wondering if swapping to a 6 is more efficient, or if I should try to fix what I have. I've heard that 7 bolt's can be more expensive to repair and 6 bolt's are a dream in comparison, and they seem to hold up better with higher hp's.
I'm not looking for crazy bragging rights, nor am I going to drag it. I want a daily of 350-400 hp, and I want to do it right.
Can anyone point me in the best direction?
