Keep the RX when its rebuilt or swap for the Evo?
This Evo BTW 335Bhp



When the RX is back it will be 400Bhp+
If 'twas a 6 i'd say yes but it's a little long in the tooth as it's a 4 and nowhere near as pretty as your lovely 7, so i'd keep the lovely RX

What a waste of a rebuild if you swap. Keep the RX, its the only sensible decision that can be made, other than giving me the rx for nothing, but i cant see you doing that
Whilst you have a warranty on the engine, make the most of it and enjoy it while you can. For all you know, you could swap and 20 miles later the evo engine could blow up. Nice big bill and you will forever regret it.

Decided im gonna keep the T-REX.
Evo is nice but its just not got that raw appeal 
Gonna give the RX a makeover as soon as its run in to look similar to this

Its crazy though. The Rex looks about 10 years younger than it is, especially compared to the Evo, that just looks dated compared to the latest ones.
Only thing the Rex needs to bring it into the 21st century is a headlight conversion to get rid of the pop up lights. Then it'd be fully ace
