Either would be fun, bu I think the K24 would be very fun.... if I was going to boost a car i'd look at an EVO I think.
Seriously doubt you can do an engine swap to a totally different make for less than a Miata turbo kit. Maybe if it’s a total hack job. You’d be better off with one of the varieties of Miata V8 swaps, way more power. If you want a K24 why not an early S2k, strip it out to add lightness?
