Where's the "hotrex has herpes" option?

I personally don't like H22's at all. Not only will the ringlands go, the sleeves will probably crack since they're FRM or some ----.

finish the 1.6l sohc, or go B.
h22 are pointless in my opinion unless you have a lot of money to build it solid

$2000 later you've got a solid motor, right?

Not worth it, in my opinion.

I'd keep the car how it is, save some money, and work on whoring your boost controller out. Oh, want me to prototype one?!

h22. 2 grand later you have a bulletproof engine that will take boost like a beast. 300hp+ wont be very hard to reach.
