I'm very close to pulling the trigger on this but want some feedback on whether its crazy ridiculously stupid money being thrown away.
I've been looking to get some Oomph out of my beloved so I've decided to go with the common S5X engine swap AND a 5spd tranny swap as well. Im told the engines have moderately low miles <75k and the 5spd is also in very good shape. My mechanical skill level is limited to light bulbs and oil changes so i'm having this done by the "Pros". Out the door and ready to burn up the streets is going to run me $7000. Mind you this is without my Jewish-ness negotiating skills so i'll try and get some more out of it with that price.
What do you think, too much? about right?
Also, which engine should i go with S50 or S52? OBD1 or OBD2?
Thanks
