vq30de to vq30de-k swap

Hey what's up...I'm new here, but I'm a regular at the FreshAlloy.com forum. Anyway, just wanted some feedback on putting a 5th gen VQ into my 95SE. I heard it's a super-direct swap, and that I could even just change the muffler and the intake manifold to get the 32HP. Sounds too good to be true though, so I dunno. However, 40+HP(the aforementioned mods + an intake and possibly an ECU change) for less than $1.5K doesn't sound too bad...

But I dunno. Let me know the truth about it.

the reason they say use the search is because it saves time and bandwidth.

And, to help you furhther look for the guy by the screen name of RoadBeast. Also, look at posts by MardigrasMax. He succesfully installed the "middle east intake manifold" on his motor. It really works.
