yea I was kinda hoping to not have to change much... if that isn't realistic than ill just have to live with that and sell what I take off... technically it is my only car but I don't DD at all.. hasn't left the garage in 3 months lol.. I just use my moms car so more of a weekend warrior.. and right now im looking at ALL options... don't plan on making moves if any for a couple months.. got a million different things I want to do... budget I would say is under 5k? lol but just idk... not worried about that part just yet.. just want to know all options
Ok makes sense. A 3550 is commonly accepted by most to do well between 400-500 lb ft of tq although as I previously stated some will argue. It is also a near direct replacement given you acquire a bellhousing with it. That said, you can find complete swaps for around 1k all day. I am always a bit picky about buying used parts, but that should give you an idea. There are also many options for sturdy t5's but I dont not believe any are rated for nearly 500 at the wheels. A tko500 is another option but I have to admit I am not sure about the input shaft spline count.
