unless you're running some tracks where you really need to dig out of corners, i'd skip the inevitable shitshow of swapping blocks (unless you can find a guy who runs out of steam mid-project and you can grab a fairly complete engine) and just keep improving the 2.0. you've got a great torque curve as it sits and its been reliable for you.
what is typical driveline loss for these? i think your engine looks strong particularly given the dog-day temperatures out there and at the core of things its a very lightly breathed on engine with simple bolt ons. you haven't even touched cams/injectors/throttle body/port work yet.
have you pulled the A/C system yet? i don't know the ins and outs of TT allowances but i'm sure there's weight to be dropped there.
