If I got this LX head off you and tried it on my ex... I'd have to give up vtec? Although 50 bucks does sound amazing.

Yeah - LX doesn't have VTEC. This would be a good application for those who wish to go turbo.

Well, for a stock LX, VTEC kick's *** - but for turbo, if you want to run higher boost, this will help slightly, as it will lower compression a small amount. But, the real benefit comes from porting / polishing the head - one member (catylist) gained somewhere around 30 HP after a PnP job with his turbo setup, he had around 275 HP around 9 PSI I think he said, his dyno proved it!
