For the most part, no.


Also depends on what you plan to do to this car.

If you want to do just be your daily driver put a 2200 in it, if you want more performance, search for your options...

yeah found a 2.2 for my car at a salvage for $650 with only 23k miles on it..
yes this is my dd
sorry but don't want to waste putting a turbo on a car that isn't worth it.

Direct swap = 98+ 2200

If you don't mind also swapping a few accessories including your trans, than an Eco swap is a feasible option...


Cheapest/easiest... drop in another 2200.
