I want to do an engine swap on my 2009 Prius. Why? Because Prii are boring. I don't think it's actually possible... But it'd be sweet if I could. Imagine smoking a Mustang in a Prius.

You can just go on the prius forums and tell people you beat a mustang in your prius without the swap.

Given enough dedication, work, time, and money, nothing's impossible.

Cummins diesel swap. For all the street cred.

Lots of things to remove... Take out the batteries, recharging systems and you should be able to get a bigger engine in there...

That or see if you can swap / tune the hybrid system to give really short and big releases... Say 90% electric power for up to 20 seconds for a drag race...

Imagine smoking a doobie in a Prius. Oh, wait... I'm sure that is done on a daily basis. :)

I saw a guy in a turbo'd prius with some sticky rubber at an autox and he was faster than most of the grid in fast cars.

What possessed you to get a Prius in the first place?

My dad... It was his car.

Well in that case I'd suggest you save yourself all the troubles associated with an engine swap, sell the econobox & get a proper car instead.

Drop a Ford Racing Coyote crate engine in the bay. That's pretty much what the recent Mustang 5.0s have had in them. although you are looking at $14k for a nice one.
