Yes, but not worth it. If you really think you need to know why, just ask brock.

Yeah not worth your time. the 2.2L swap is a huge money pit, and the gain is only 20hp over the BP swap. not worth it. besides the F2T is an interference engine. a GTX swap is more powerful and cheaper, (no customer parts are needed)

Custom engine and tranny mounts, axles etc........
That **** doesn't come cheap.
Grafting the F2T wiring harness to work with the protege chassis harness.
