My buddy had a Z6 swapped EF hatch, and he EEPROM'd the ECU. It was race stripped, curb weight 1800 lbs. with him in it and full tank of gas. And he's 200 lbs.


For having no torque, that thing MOVED.

Mine is already 2 inches lower then stock with skunk2 coilovers and iluminas adjustable and a skunk2 catback. She handles nice and sounds decent, but gets blown away by everyday cars. I only bought her as a work commuter since the price was right, but one thing led to another and she became a side project.
Not to be a A$$, But you mean coilover sleeves and adjustable struts....

And no, I'm not going the LS swap AKA poor mans GSR AKA dime-a-dozen swaps...but thanks for lumping me in the stereotype mr. know it all, last I checked I could care less if I earned respect from someone who has a Ford on his avatar.

Lol wow you two need you get your panties unbunched, there was no disrespect involved, just simple probability which you all agreed to. they are great cheap 2 hour swaps end of story. LOL seriously boys. Secondly not a fan of the returns on the K motor, I still believe the H22 is where its at. Oh and wagonis I have a ford in my avatar because its my DD and a great car so maybe your retarded fish picture can blow its ball mmmkay?!

You came on here saying "I will actually show some respect"...And don't ask me to get my panties unbunched when you obviously got yours cramped when I poked at your Ford. And that "retarted fish" that my 6 year old son drew for me probably has a better reliability record then any Ford POS.

On that note...the K motor is a nice swap because it provides a pretty nice HP and torque that actually match that of the H22 but with more potential in the long run. With the market shifting more towards the newer K series, it makes more sense to go that route. Sure, it's not as easy of a swap as your average B series, but the long term gain is worth it. Honestly at this point though, anything would be welcomed over my current slow ass d15b7 that can get spanked by a stock Hyundai Accent.

I've had 2 Fords and had nothing but trouble with both. I'll give for credit for building better products lately. Their new SHO is a winner in my book and the new Mustang is pure sex. I just wish they built better products 10 years ago as they do now.

I'll be the first to admit of having a mild case of ADD...no doubt.
