My 08' Fit.

I bought my son a 2008 Honda Fit for his first car. The plan was that I was going to drive it for two years until he got his L's. The truth is, I fell in love with it so i'll be buying him another car-can you blame me? I have some money i set aside for a Pool, and a few other fairly expensive things for around the house. I said screw that, i'm going to work my fit!

The things I am looking for are mainly-
1-Motor Swap(I hear good things about the K20A)?
2-Header back Exhaust(No idea what kind)
3-Turbo Kit(No idea what kind)

I currently have-
1-Blitz Throttle Controler
2-Cold Air Intake
3-Short Shifter

Can you Pro's give me some tips on what I should/could do? What are good brands of the items I am looking for? About how much will it run me up? Thanks in advance guys!!

*PS*If there is anything else I should buy/buy instead of something on my want to buy list let me know! I'm sure you know alot more than me=D

swap = k20 is massively expensive but would be dope
exhaust = all depends on what type of mods you do
turbo = do you mean swap + turbo or l15 + turbo? if l15 + turbo, https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/sale...turbo-kit.html buy that, you'll have more power than a stock k20 for about 1/2 the price

also make sure you upgrade your stock suspension with some decent coil-overs i recommend skunk2 pro-c's personally

if you went with the j's 50rr your exhaust would definately be holding back a lot of power, with a k swap And a turbo you'd need a custom exhaust set-up

if you get a k20, do k20z3 from the new si.

and a kswap with parts and labor would be around 8-10k
