save yourself aggro in the long run and save 2k up
get the engine cheked over, anything that looks worn, replace.
get a proper fitting kit usually about £500 ish
most ppl i see who just stuff a c20xe in end up changing sensors and gaskets etc and it makes it harder in the long run, do it once and do it right,
dont forget that engine is 15 years old or more
