Looking for some honest advice...
I've been out of the car game for a long time and I've just bought myself my second VR4. Now, I'm looking for reliability first and foremost and possibly a modern spin on a classic. So I'm thinking later model Evo engine swap?
So my questions are:
1. To the best of my knowledge, up to evo 3 is virtually the same engine, after that it's flipped 180º so intake/exhaust is on the wrong side (right?). Then I heard evo x the engine gets flipped back... is my information correct?
2. Is an engine swap cost efficient?
3. Is this just a dumb idea and should I stick to freshening up the original motor?
