so my friend is selling is type S engine

My buddy has a 2006 RSX type S. Someone completely destroyed his backend. now, he is selling his car peice by peice to buy his new car. anywho, he said he would sell me the engine if it could work in the cobalt. he said $1,500. only has 18,000 on it. Could i put that in? thats 210 HP right there.

Dude, buy the best 4cyl honda you can find for under 1000 bucks. Gut it, drop this in, bolt it, tune it, some dr's and say bye to most of the cars on this site.

don't do it, $1500 for the motor and a **** load more for all the fabrications and labor you would need to make it work. it would probably be thousands cheaper and your car would be faster to buy a turbo kit and some other goodies

see k20's are great and all but I have spent 750 on my D build and have 343 FWHP on my crx , and I have a block guard , vitara pistons , eagle rods , acl bearings , cometic headgasket , etc and I walk alot of **** at the track in KC. alot of all motor RSX-s's I mean they are pretty quick but for less money build a d blow it and build it again for uber cheap and still be damn quick. I love my d16 <3 hell I am selling my balt to get another honda , Ide rather have another Civic or accord , they are extremely cheap to replace parts and fix , and the cobalt just aint doin it for me.

this is not the way it goes.

He would have to gut the entire car and go full stand alone.

It wouldnt even be streetable.
