Well look where this has all gone. I am going to say this, I am not going to quote anyone to directly target their statements.

First off the LS1 is indeed a very awesome engine. Is the install cheap in our cars? Yes if you do it back yard ghetto style. If done the right way? Its expensive, LS1 car owners know this fact.

Second off, Whoever thinks the VQ series of engines does not have potential or is worthless expensive swap has really not done their research or seen a VQ swapped car in action.

Fact : a 300hp stock VQ engine can be had with all needed components for the swap for,3k! How do I know this? I own one, a 2005 Rev Up engine complete with the goodies and modules!

Fact: the VQ35HR aka the 2007 engine was redesigned with boost in mind. The block was reinforced the stroke was shortened for higher revs and it got a symetrical intake and exhaust.(This is the engine I really want hehehhe)
Get one of these and it will hold boost should you decide to Turbo.

Fact:Nismo's engine of tune is the VQ30DET

Fact: Formula Renault in Europe is run with VQ30DET engines.

Fact: Nismo is heavily involved in Renaults Formula one efforts.

Now the only reason I state the above info is to stop the people that trash VQ's from trashing them without a little info. I am not saying its the all out shit. I will say its one of the better V6 engines in existence today. The VQ series is what Nissan is basing all their top performance cars around and its not shabby.

For a little history lesson to the Nay sayers. Their once was a RB20 a pretty standard Nissan six cylinder it was in a lot of their cars. They decided to make it a little better. The 25 was born, more of a performance engine but still a cross platform engine. Then they developed the RB26 aka Godzilla for the sake of all out Performance and racing.
Point being when the RB started it was no great shakes of an engine in a lot of peoples eyes. Now people worship the ground of RB25's and RB26's. My how things change over time.
Nissan is going the same route with the VQ series and the engines are monsters in sheeps clothing.

Is the VQ swap into our chassis's really expensive? The current offerings out there make it seem that way. There is really no reason for that in my opinion.
Your looking at getting all the proper pieces and doing the wiring. The install process itself is not that hard. Your wiring is probably the toughest part. Does that mean the swap should be expensive? No. Do current people that do it make it expensive? Yes, because they are in business and want to make money off it.
Is a LS1 swap done right more expensive? In my opinion yes. Do I not like or appreciate a LS1 swap? No.

Now to the OP if you want to try to put a Titan engine in your car go do it. I personally think the engine won't fit well and do side with the LS1 people on the choice of it for a V8 install.
Though anyone who says the VQ is shit and is not worth it, really does need to more research on the VQ series before posting.
