need motor - reman/rebuild?
hey finally getting the engine bay i've wanted for a year, single turbo (probably GT35/40), PFC, new intercooler, radiator, fuel pump, injectors and intake/exhaust. phew.
I need an engine tho so i'm trying to decide whether to rebuild my existing (and do mild street port) or get a reman engine.
The reman option would be cheaper for me but I haven't heard much about their quality other than some unquantified negative opinion. Anyone have experience with the reman engine and do they hold up with the single turbo setup (thinking of running 10-12 psi and my goal is 340-350 rwhp.
btw, despite my screename i'm interested in keeping it a daily driver and i'm not into dragging so i like the low end.
