Don't have anything to add to the argument? Don't step in then. That's that

I think their k20's do just fine.

On the contrary, what you said right there is ironically dumb. From what you've said, i can only conclude that you think that the D17 has more potential than the k20 when it comes to boost. Firstly, compare the two engines. 2.0 DOHC I4 > 1.7l SOHC I4. K-series engines are superior to the D-series engines...care to prove me wrong?

Well I haven't heard anything new but I know that NashVegasEX installed his regrind cam with a P&P and a 50 shot and he says that the power is unbelieveable also he spoke to crower and they said early 'Jan 05 but my prediction are late 'Dec 04 because they already have all the parts (valves, springs, retainers, cam gear, pistons, rods etc.) except the cam itself which they are now making..... 
So as I said I have my finger and toes crossed because I need power soon....

Just got off the phone with Brian at crower and yes we at looking at a late Dec. very early Jan. release of the entire package. However he did mention to me that for pistons we will be looking at JE both high or low....... (not sure on price yet)
Right now Brian is sending me "CROWER" decals to put on my vic so that it's gonna be all out crower..
Eddie keep your fingures crossed, I know that your gonna be the premiere dealer for crower's product line for the D17 on this site (so far good job on the hookup
)
