951's 330i is an unknown quantity at this point
Close to RB20DET OR RB25DET...But...

Ok so like the title says, close to getting either. Well more like ready for the RB20 but might just get the RB25 instead.

Question though.
1. For a car that is going to be a DD and maybe start some drifting, should i get the 25? Or would the RB20 be enough? I am not really looking to get extreme numbers, maybe try for 300 plus to the wheels? Or untill i feel satisfied with my butt dyno lol. I've searched as much as i could by also visiting other sites for info. Just would like the feedback of someone who has experience this swap already.

2. Where can i purchase either one? I know there are vendors on here, but has anyone had any experience with them, or have found greater deals on other sites? Feedback on that would be appreciated as well.

3 If bought from a vendor, which either one sells a complete swap, what is the major differences between them? Is it just their own pricing because i have seen RB20's from 1000 to 1200. And then theres the RB25 between 1800 to 2400 before shipping on their advertised threads? Is it just plain mark up price? I know for the RB25 sometimes the difference can be whether it is a SI or SII.

4. On the Rb25det, i have read both sides saying the SI is better then the SII, and vice-versa. What is the real difference between the two besides the turbo? Or is it just all personal preference?

5. With the swaps that sell the uncut wiring, that just means i have to do the cutting and wire everything up right? But is this very hard to do? Where can i fine a wiring diagram for either swap? Or better yet, when i get started, can someone in socal help?!

Thanks to all who input on the questions asked. Hopefully i can get started on a swap very soon. By the way, i will be swapping it into a 95 s14.
