Hey guys, Im looking into an AP1 build.

Just wondering what the cost is INCLUDING ALL PARTS AND SHOP LABOR, DYNO TUNE, etc to get to 330-350RWHP with the F20c......

I'm comparing this vs. a one-off engine swap that a shop owner I know would do in his spare time for cheap (I would go to a diffrent shop to do a turbo kit though). Just trying to weigh the pros and cons...

thanks!

 

uh.. supercharge it.. 6k ish if u canf ind alot of things used

 

There's a SC for sale in classifieds for great price. Get it =)

 

used IP kit or similar $3000
aem ems & injectors $1400
gauges $200
clutch $500
labor $1800
tune $500

you're looking at right around $7500

Thx guys for the info!

If I decide to do the swap (to a BPU++ 1JZGTE) then Ill be sure to post lots of pics!

The swap would be cheaper and put out the same power, but it would be +150lbs (yes only 150lbs, i did a LOT of research on the 2JZ swaps ppl have done) and worse on fuel.... also i would have to be bothered to sell the F20c and other stuff. But it could be cool having a totally unique s2000.....

 

Save yourself a headache and fork out the cash to get a good S/C or turbo kit.

 

What about throttle response and torque?

this is also a concern for me, the 1JZ has lots of tq and great throttle response....

It wouldnt be me doing any of the work, so im not too concerned about the 'headache factor'... except having to wait for the winter for him to get the project done.

 

It'll cost less than any engine swap...
