3v way better imo. almost half the price to port and you can get close to 300 cfm, alot less moving parts, you can get a way better tune with it and the parts are more reliable and cheaper also. Its a no brainer, esp. for that power goal.

its actually 3v and 4v. 4v would prob be an easier swap. i'd just sell your car and buy a cobra for the money your gonna dump into your car.

the motor alone is going to cost a decent amount of money and be quite a bit of work. 3v swap requires a kit (to adapt to 2v exhaust) and a complete motor with ECU and wiring harness then you'll still need a few odds and ends i believe like AC hoses and **** like that.

so after spending a couple grand dropping in a stock 3 or 4 valve motor, you still need a supercharger. that will set you back another 3+ grand. but that brings us to the next problem

you want 600rwhp? won't happen on a stock 3 or 4v motor unless you get a terminator motor or some other already built motor. termi motors are selling for like 6 grand and a MMR or similar shortblock will cost around the same amount.

THEN assuming you get your motor able to handle 600rwhp, your entire drivetrain from the clutch to the axles will need to be beefed up.

all said and done getting your car to 600 rwhp will be alot of work and probably over 10 grand.
