I don't think there is anything to be gained from a p&p job. You could put in the hondata insulator gasket. Do a search to get the pluses an minuses of that. I think what would suit your purposes is getting a ported throttle body but even then the cost to benefit is pretty slim.

I agree. There were some earlier theards in the UTH forum on p&p jobs and I think the consensus was there wasn't much to gain. However, I think Science of Speed will do it right if you want it done.

not necessarily... you can run a comptech or vortech kit right out of the box without any internal owkr.. including inlinepro, lovefab turbo kit as well.

you can even run the 10psi pulley on the supercharger kits as long as you retard the timing and get aem EMS and you'll be safely at 380whp all day long.

with the turbo kits run a 3mm headgasket and you'll be at 400whp all day long with no issues with an aem EMS.

unless you want 450plus whp, you dont have to change your internals.

^^^ thats true..but how realiable is ur engine ganna run...me personally i just would feel so much safer wit a little internal build....

cuz i want a full race turbo kit...and i know a someone that had that on..and he just ran that kit tooo hard..and blew his motor in like 1 month...i dont want that to happen to me...

and blowers r dope as hell.but i just love the sound of a BOV...soooooo sexy...
