Looking for advice, building my first car which is a Honda civic ek hatch. I’m somewhat in a different position because I wanna get into the car scene but have no idea what I’m doing, I’ve built engines for motorcycles but cars is a completely different thing. I’m looking at 2 different options 1 is a complete swap that’s making 270hp but capable of 340 with high boost map that comes with literally everything I need basically plug and play with mounts, wiring, fuel system, exhaust, turbo kit, engine and transmission, gauges etc etc for 2k which I think is pretty cheap but also made with cheap parts. Or option 2 is just getting a forged built engine and buying everything separately also building it over a long period of time in the hopes of making 400 ish whp but that’s 850. What do you think I should do?
