Engine Idea!!!

Would a Small Block V6 twin turbo fit in a 2k2 civic? If so I want to do it within the next two weeks.

WELL, the first thing you are gonna have to ask yourself is,"How much money am I willing to spend?" because to do that, its not easy and its not cheap. You can make anything fit but the thing is, how much green do you have to work because a grand or two wont get it done. Thats something you can try when either you are super rich or an engineering genius because you are definitely gonna have to redesign the engine front engine bay, possibly the suspension, and maybe even chopping the body to get that thing in there, but anything is possible.

If you are going to do a V6TT why not just get a NSX engine and get a comptech SC for it and make it a MR.
