Mad4it,

It's not really realistic to convert an EJ20, into a 2.5lt, there isn't enough meat in the block to do it safely.

There are of course ways to achieve it, bit it's not cheap to do it correctly.

However, it can be done, and there are varous other options worth considering.

It really depends just how "mad for it" (sorry you are, and your budget.

Mark.
