well if your car is stock and uve done nothing to the outside i would trade it in for a srt-4.if you dont wanna go that route then u should do a srt-4 complete engine swap but make it a complete one not a half one like most people.

I looked into it too so i figured thats who you were talking about doing the swap for ya. I ask him random question all the time of what he can get for me. The main guy is pretty decent.

welcome to df... are u looking for a complete motor mount or just an insert? i hear boomba makes a good one, neonon19s has them on his car..

srt swap is good, but remember it is NOT cheap to do it right, with the price of an engine and trans, and wiring harness, exc exc, it will be a 6k swap....
