It might be the same thing with the M2. Keeping that in mind, would you swap it? Or even drop a turbocharger in it?
So what's the purpose of the swap? More HP is the pro. What's the con?It seems like one con is unbalancing the car which it seems against the whole reason for going to an 4 cyl. If you don't care about that, can't you just do an engine swap or supercharge a 1M?
