N/A build would be pretty cool to see though. I think the tough part will be getting all that power to the ground without breaking the tires loose.
why would you want to do a swap? swaps have been done before. Just like forced induction, that's been done to hell. What you gotta do is something that no one else has ever done... like a built NA.... oh wait that's been done too, just less often because everyone realizes it isn't worth the money.

I still fail to see the logic in spending quadruple the amount on modding a car to get worse performance just to be able to say you were the first one to do it, when in reality a ton of other people have done the same thing to other cars in the past, its just that when they did it no one cared because the performance was mediocre and it cost a ton of money.
