Default P1 2.5 conversion!

Hi I'm new to ther forum, last Saturday I bought an rb320 110# after owning the car for this short period I love it! So immediately I want more power but I can't justify modifying a sought after car like this.. So I'm thinking if buying a P1 and getting the more power out of that, I understand that the P1 and the Rb have near enough the same 0-60 and even the p1 maybe slightly quicker, to get to the point I want to purchase a p1 and thinking of converting it to 2.5T.. I'm sure it's possible because anythings possible but just reading that the ej20 and 25 are basically the same just a bigger bore etc.. Please help!!

Both cars are limited cars, so why bother with either, as technically if they are both mint you may devalue either car by modifying in my opinion. I'm not saying putting a 2.5 Forged engine in a P! wont add value, but it will take it away from the car it once was.

Personally if you like the RB320, then Id go Hawkeye 2.5 fully forged for the same kind of money. Run say 450/500 and enjoy!
