From what I understand the block is a DE with the VE n1 head on top with custom oil lines for the neovvl (vtec) activation. You make yourself look silly when you post about stuff that you have no idea about. My fairly stock sr20ve engine makes about 118wkw but needs better tuning. The only power adders really are the ecu and exhaust.
Why is there such negativity about a nissan making good power. Why is there so much animosity between members of this site and nissans. When I read about egk20a i thought, wow thats awesome ill go check it out. There are plenty of people in the states making over 160wkw with n1 cams on stock sr20ve engines with much fewer mods, its not hard to believe guys.
Im sure chuck had many doubters and people asking him whether it was worthwhile to put the k20 into his old civic.
Maybe wait till its run, then you can have your say, but i wouldnt be so quick to judge.
