    I've got type R clutch and fly in there already and also a sway bar

    ok disregard my obvious plug.

    But really IMO dont even bother with type r cams. Either get serious upper head work or leave it.

    work it out on paper...the amount of money spent vs the amount of useable power you get. Turbo is better bang for buck vs SC.

    NA work isnt bang for buck. Its a money pit. But you DO know this owning a honda right lol ?

    quoted for truth!!!

    BlaBla - see the link posted in post#2... ask anyone in that thread how much it cost them to get to a certain stage.

    excluding my re-rebuild which i'm up for now my head assembly including parts cost around $3k and those parts i managed to source for cheap or 2nd hand on here....

    honestly... boost it... you have to be the type to appreciate what little NA power can give you for $$$... my motivation was legality and insurance.

    I know that trying to keep a any sort of car na is Pricey. I dont like the idea of turbo if i was going to go with turbo i would of thrown a turbo onto my old engine D16y8.

    Even if i had the choice of worked turbo motor or worked N/A motor i would go for the N/A.

    If your going bang for buck, look at bigger displacement.

    If i recall right, you have all the parts perfect for a B20vtec or B18c Bottom end upgrade.

    Look into Hybrid engines b16a/b20, b16a/b18c

    get a b18c7 - no need for engineering. and a dead stock setup should pull your car to low 14's if not high 13's. proven.
