But would it be cheaper to just build my 2jzge engine or just swap the 2jzgte vvti. I found a complete 2jzgte vvti engine with the Ecu, wiring harness, trans, and the stock turbos. The engine has 55,000 miles and all of that is@ 3,800. What you y'all do build or swap?

welcome to CL, please read the stickies at the top and do a search there is tons of info on this stuff on the forum.
there are tons of members that swap, and there are tons of members that go na-t.
it realy comes down to preference and your skill level na-t usually requires alot more DIY attitude.
also check out the build section there are tons of gte swap builds and na-t builds in there, including vvti.
if you want to get more info please search and post in one of the existing threads on this topic, or start a build thread and you can ask for help/opinions in there that are specific to your needs.
we have too many of these general can I put a gte engine in my car threads, the answer is yes but cause its vvti the harness will be the hardest part (or most $$$ if you are buying one), otherwise its just like a non-vvti but much fussier due to them using maf's etc.. its slightly trickier than a non vvti swap that is for sure but with some research its doable.
