just switch to a header when doing so, stock mani is a pain in the prostate.

22r's are excellent motors, but why the ---- do you want to ruin a car with a motor that is made for a truck, has 95hp at 4800, and won't reliably break 6k on the tach?

they're made for trucks. end of story. unless you buy a comp cam in the 280 and up range, complete LCE head, 12.5:1 pistons, stroker crank, bore the ****** out 2mm, to make it a 2.7-2.8, what's the point of enjoying a carbureted motor? also, have fun with a $400 replacement ignition module...

i'll tell you the secret tomorrow

No but on a serious note, the quad 4's put out decent hp numbers, but I heard that they tend to explode a lot, that they aren't reliable engines at all. I didn't doubt that information for obvious reasons. I owned a 93 beretta w/ the 3.1 v6 and someone would always talk about their beretta with the quad 4 that was soo fast until the engine rattled apart

It doesn't say honda.... it cant be good. honda engines are cast in japanese steel by hattori hanzo.... utterly undefeatable.

it would depend on if it started as a d15a2 (carbed) or a d15a3 (fuel injected) if it WAS an si with a fuel injected motor, i can absolutly gaurantee that a $2,000 budget for boost would be more than enough to own that auto gm swapped bucket, a d15a3 with a 60 trim t3 and an fmu for managment would destroy that car....and cost less than $2,000...
