    Depends on your budget, and how much work you are willing to do. Are you only interested in something that will just bolt right in?

    The holy grail is the o2m as far as I am concerned. You can try to strengthen an o2a but at the end of the day you are better off upgrading especially if you are putting out significant power. As a bonus you usually get another gear as well. Only drawback is that is is a lot heavier than the o2a.
