i had FE-DOHC (the 10comp alloy sump) in my GD 626.... microtec ran the show so no need for the AFM and i had just the cone on it.... the sound was INCREDIBLE.... damn (makes me drool just thinking about it). pulled like a mongrel all the way to 7200.
really good motor, however not a holy grail as it is seen on mx6.com/probetalk (but it is best you can get for those platforms, myself i think the BP-T even through 1.8 is a better motor)
for the ease of things i would go:
F2-T (from 626/mx6 GD)
Microtec (or similar)
easy sourced, once you get it going can drop FE-DOHC in it easy, will have better brains for it and ready for anything (microtec)
i think the F2-T is a great option for RWD, torque is fantastic....
btw, here is an interesting build up
