pretty pricy. its like half price of a custom turbo sorta.. almost half..
and u get about half the poonies too I guess. thats rather a lot for a P&P and TB job. (especially for our car)
hmm. i guess there's other a/f mods, since how else did u dyno tune it. heh.

hmmm. I dunno? His Max Power is at 5700, is the engine still making good power to 7k? Need a proper full Dyno image.
So if I were to get a P&P job with my mods and dynoed again
what HP increse would I be looking at?

Rep Power: 0 I am seriously considering this. 20whp would put me deep into the 14's and if a Cam ever comes out(assuming a gain of at least 10hp) that with my stg2 
(been playing GT4 too much) weight redux, clutch +Streetlite Flywheel and tuned with SAFC I might be able to get pretty close to 13's NA. 2100lbs low 14sec NA civic would = fun as hell to drive.

Rep Power: 0 It's all wishful thinking for the moment, but yes I was thinking the same thing. Just a 35 shot probally would do it. If I do go this route it's not gonna happen overnight. Now that just about all my bills are paid off I plan to save/buy something each month or so. But after this dyno it does look promising and gives some hope.

let's not rag on the auto guys now. people have their reasons. hopefully we can see the same or more of an increase with PnP on a manual. we could be hitting close to 140whp IMO.

True. That's what one guy reached with pnp, cam gear, i/h/e, and vafcii. Just get the pnp done right. Djmota dynoed around 125whp with the same head I have except his is a manual.
