LS1 Miata swap. Bossfrog vs V8R kit.... Put bluntly, which one will cost less to do by the time you finish the swap. The actual labor is not an issue as I will have a second car, etc, but I would like to know which one has the lesser cash investment. Im not worried about the cost of the motor, got that figured out, just worried about getting a stock LS1 with a T56 running and driving with exhaust in one of these cars?
Also Can you use any factory exhaust manifolds on either of these kits?

About the same. V*R has you hack the firewall and labor hours will be tons more.
BF is almost bolt in.

For just hardware BF is cheaper, not as much anymore since they raised their prices. You also don't also don't need to modify the oil pan. But there's a reason most still go with V8R.
