EJ20 Build Cost? Options

[LanceW3544]

Good afternoon!

First of all let me start off by saying thanks for all your help. Over the past decade I have been on several different car forums and this has been by far the most supportive and accepting group. Thank you.

I come from the honda wordl where we are rarely putting in engines from different makes. I grew up on Porsches watching my dad road race in his 912. This is my first porsche and I am stoked to start this project. I am a boost adtict and I am quite confindent that the ej20 it the motor I want to move forward with. I have spent the past 2 weeks searching different builds. I think the hardest choice is detirmining weather I want to use the stock trans or use the subi trans. I am hoping you all could help me sort what options I have in regards to conversion kits kennedy, renegade, ect. Vs. conversion craddles that allow for the subi 5MT. I will most likely purchase a donor car or complete engine/trans/wiring harness ect. So let take the cost of the motor out.

Coversion Kit / with stock trans
Renegade has their kit priced at 2000
What is the cost of Kennedy Perfomace Kit?
Used conversion Kits- Are they round and what do they go for?

Conversion with subi 5MT
FWD conversion 100-200
Internal Dif delete -75
Craddle Options?
Is cold water sill in business
Does anyone else make a custom craddle for this swap?
Axle Options and Cost?
Shifting options and linkage?

Thanks in advance. My gut is tellingme to do the full 5MT swap in the process but all the custom craddle fabrication intimidates.

Ant reason you don't want to go w/ a NA 6? EZ30D will get you about 220hp; the R series 242hp; EZ36D 256hp. The later to are drive by wire and require an emulator ($900) to controller the CanBus circuitry. The later 2 employee ALVS, AVCS.The 30D will be the easiest to install. There is also the EG33 which preceded the above mentioned engines but the availability seems to be drying up. Turbo 4's will naturally be faster as the HP will be 75-200 greater. However, the six has a very nice sound when compared to the Turbo 4. Without a doubt run the TY754 series 5MT transmission. You can convert the present pedal cluster to hydraulic for < $80. There is a lot of info on Subaru conversions on this site. GL which ever route you choose. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
