not sure where you heard traction problems. you'll probably have handling problems if anything with extra weight but coilovers fix that anyway. either way there is a TON of info on here and fitswap.org or was it com regarding this swap

swap a K24 stroked to 25 or 26. combine that with a K20 head. or just a plain simple K20A2 type-S motor. A K20 weighs 30kgs more than the L15 so it's not THAT big of a concern. Why K24? because torque is more useful on the streets. But you need to upgrade your suspension and tires to actually USE that torque. or else you will be slow because, your tires are spinning like mad. like what happened to me yesterday.

if your not looking to make more than 200hp than K swap would be worthless.
