Default Re: rebuild or replace

Depends on what you are looking for in power goals. If you are happy with a stock d16z6, then rebuild it.

If you are looking for more power, you might as well buy a swap anyway, since you would be having to pay for the price of a rebuild, and then power adders, to make the same power as a swap you can get.

Just all depends on what you are looking to get.
