How would you do the B20A swap if you had the cash? How much do you think it would cost?

I would think that the average shop woul dhave no clue what to do to install the B20A since it's not a straight drop in (wiring changes are neccessary depending on what ECU and stuff you decide to run) so you'll probably get burned on the labour unless you decide to stick with the A20 ECU and Teg ignition stuff. Maybe the shop b20aturbo mentioned that's in NY that helped him with his would be able to help you out.

Do it yourself and rebuild from the ground up. You will enjoy the experience and get a better appreciation of you car and work that you have done to it.

Even though I had the chance to run and drive my B20a parts car before I pulled the engine I still rebuilt it with new parts.

:( I wish someone that knew how to swap a b20 would help me do it, I can get one but I dont even have the right equipment to swap an engine and most people dont even know how to do a B20.

I voted for a full rebuild, but if $$ is an issue I'd vote for a shop to do it. Luckily I'm only 2 hours away from Openloop Motorsports, and about 8 hours from Justin.
