I have bought motors from both, and wasn't let down. I recomend rotaryworks, as they are a rotary shop, that uses the bad jspecs as rebuild cores..greatly reducing your chances of getting a bunk engine.

Is the S5 Turbo really that much harder to find? I keep hearing that it would be more straight forward to swap s5 na to s5 turbo, plus the extra 20 hp would be nice. I feel that if im going to go thru with the swap i might as well get the best option.

The most bang for your buck...
Try looking here. www.atkinsrotary.com I've bought form them a couple times and they are true to their word. All engines run without problems.
Warranty is great, 2years or 24K miles!! That includes all the mods they do too.
Can't find another distributor with at least the same if not better warranty.
You can't go wrong with these guys. Shipping is only to your door and they pay the rest. Plus you get a refund once you send your core to them, it’s around $400. Hope this helps.
