A little background information.

r32 gts-t with ebc, fmic, full 3" exhaust and a turbo that hits full boost at 5000-5500rmp(laggy as hell).

wanted more power so was loking at a second hand power fc but a new one tuned is like $2000.

now it seems im loseing water and oil so i think my engine is about had it.

ok.

with all the above factors i mind im considdering a rb25det conversion since i should be able to keep fmic and the turbo should work a lot better on the biger engine.

how much would i be looking at for a full install at a good mechaninc (engine sourced and installed)?

what places do you guys recomend in the cheltenham area that wouldnt take more than than a month to do it? (ice always seems to be closed).

any other insight from peope who have done this or at least researched it would be appreceated

Predator has just done this conversion, a search of his posts will reveal most of the parts/time/work needed.
