Rebuild Kit $200

HP - About 200-210
Longevity - Moderate

Match it up against an equal weight 200-210 hp Turbo car, I don't even have to guess which one wins.....It's a foregone conclusion.....

Spending money wisely is the key. Know what parts you need, and what parts you don't.

Mine will have more parts, because I'm looking to get to a higher power level. Thing is, the times I'm looking for....most turbo cars won't reach....

1. Block prepping and installation is going to run you more than 1700 dollars..so that blows that idea out the water.

2. thats the dumbest shit ive ever heard. An NA car vs a turbo car with the same power would be a drivers race. Both setups have their pros and cons.

3. Once again,the dumbest shit ive ever heard. A NA honda making more "power" than a turbo honda? please get the fuck out of the thread,and go blow smoke up someone elses ass.

only problem with that is ur buying into other peoples problems at times, alot of people aren't 100% honest, then again, sometimes the buyers arent really nolidgeable when it comes to looking over problem areas, i've always been a firm believer of Building not Buying...just my opinion tho
