    4age.

    dont waste your money and try take shortcuts, it will always cost you more in the long run. especially considering u are after something indestructable.

    i was tossing up gze turbo with w series. its to dear when you add everything up. i dont really think its worth it. the gearbox setup alone is almost $1k. plus engine. plus rwd inlet. turbo.
    i dont think its worth it if you are starting from scratch.
    reason i diddnt go down this path in the past.
    ca18det engine gearbox package $1200. same amount of work as 4a turbo. same power out put. gearbox is strong enough.

    as said above 4age. better option.
    i decided on beams over 4a turbo. i dont think it will cost much more than the 4agze turbo (done properly)

    nope. if you want power and reliability then just save some cash and go ca18det. like steriods said.

    4agte's cos alot of money to build, not to mention the supporting mods you will eventually have to do.

    a 3t gives good torque and should be about the same cost as 4age.
