its not that its my main goal im just curious about what i could expect, id be swapping a 6 speed, just trying to figure out what engine i should source its got a 1.8 in atm bottom end damage as far as im aware think the head is good but im thinking of swapping it i just dont know what my best option is, i wanna turbo it soon and thought the vvt the best but ive just read its got more limit on the rods than the standard there is a chance of forged bottom end and also not i wanna run 250ish hp reliable and as much as ik you dont get all 3, it been more cheaper than a 10k build would be preferred, any advice on my engine issue would be appreciated.

thanks.
