Default Engine Swap Possibilities

I'm bored and reading and helping people discussing swaps has me thinking. I have a few different swaps in mind. So vote for what you think I should do. This won't be for another year or so, but help me try to decide.

I currently have a '96 ACR with a stock SOHC engine in it, just so you know.

Vote now!!

Thats what I am strongly considering. Especially after talking to JoKeR6 about it.

if you need it to handle, and want a lot of power, use a 2.0 DOHC turbo, less weight and more power than you can get out of a 2.4 for the weight addition

however, if its straight line power you want, nothing will compare to a 2.4 turbo'd

I tried to vote and it won't let me so. I'd go with the magnum swap N/A. Just cause i always hear of the DOHC swap or the 2.4 do something different and go all motor with the magnum. But thats just me cause i thought i had a magnum head today but i lost it
