fuck all the custom exhaust bullshit, get an electric cutout and use a (relatively)stock exhaust 300
so those plus labor and a turbo will get you more hp

you need to just get the specs and have comp grind you one for bout half that cost. import shit is so expensive but uses so much less material it freaks me out.

what?.....he already has the type r motor, how would it be cheaper to buy any other motor and rebuild it when he already has one........and he has another car to drive every day so the car can be down for a while......

Re: b18c.. now...what to do with it?
theres alot of stuff in type R's that doesnt appeal to the idea of boost, the cast pistons being one item. i mean ask arnel (thermafi'd16)...he boosted his typeR and wishes he wouldnt have...even though hes 300+whp
