Seriously, what are you trying to do? Fun daily driver? Track car? Driveway ornament?

If you want a quick DD, seriously consider sticking with the KA and turboing it. A decent KA-T will cost ~the same as an SR swap and will often stomp all over it in the power department.

Or just leave the engine alone for the time being and work on the other aspects of the car. Suspension, brakes, make sure it looks clean and it's in solid mechanical shape.
