Default Sierra 2.9 24v Options

I know there are plenty of threads about on this but wanted an up to date version.

in a standard 2.0 hatch/saph which is the best (in your opinion) to go for - 24v boa or bob?

I know the BOB is more tricky to wire but can be run off a boa loom?

What kind of money are each fetching at the minute for a full setup?

Both engines are pretty much the same as you already stated bob is a bastard to wire but can be over come using boa loom/ecu bob is harder to get parts for, if its for standard use or na id say boa if you plan to go turbo bob but boa can juat as easily be turbo'd only real significant difference between the 2 is the bob has a thicker block around the water/oil ways!
I also have a boa in my saph which i am currently gathering items to turbo

For ease it's got to be the boa

They come up from time to time, the biggest issue in fitting is the fuel line's bring on the wedding side if the remove on the dohc

I noticed you are also running the brake master cylinder from the Scorpio. Are you also using the complete Scorpio ABS system including the toothed rings at the hubs?
