Long rod 2.0 here as well. I drag a lot and need the rpm ability.

lr 2.4 based on what you want. you can rev it out to 8.5k. the Turbo choices you mentioned wont make power past that.

If you don't like lag, than your turbo choices are completely wrong... Regardless of 2.0 or 2.4L or whatever..

Personally I'm going with 2.3L cause I like low rpm torque over high revs. (stock appearing turbo)

LR 2.4. More displacement while keeping decent rod ratios. Big power, good reliability, longevity.
