I actually have all the parts. Crower stage 2 cam, Crower valve spring and retainer upgrade, Apexi Vafc2. I bought the parts about 2 years ago and never had enough cash to put them in and get it running. They are brand new. You wont be able to find them cheaper anywhere on the net then right here. PM and we can check shipping costs. Buy these!!

crower is the only company that makes a cam for the d17. the stage 1 cam is a straight drop in and gets you 125 hp to the wheels it's a fun cam that has a little kick to it. for the stage 2 you really need k-pro to get it to idle straight. and DJmota (oscar) was actually running k-pro on his car.

I can give the new 06+ si a car length and still stomp it thats with crower stage 2 cam, springs and retainer, k-pro, DC sports 4-2-1 full race header, 2.5 inch exhaust straight through, and custom Intake manifold.

I do really recommend the stage 1 cam though it is nice just stick it in like you are doing a timing belt install and thats it and it feels good

Thanks for the info bomerman.

Just curious what sort of 1/4 time I can expect with simply upgrading to a stage 1 cam, and maybe also a K&N Typhoon sri?

I havent done anything to my car, but i was thinking to swap out for a B18 motor. But after reading all of this. i'm thinking about just building my D17. What could be some minor mods that i can do to it for significant increase in power?

Do a head swap! I got a head I need to get rid of too, low miles and a-ok'd from the machine shop after they cleaned it up n replaced seals n stuff, great buy.

A b18 wont fit in an em2. Only a K series will fit.

MindBomber

It will fit, it's just not legal or practical.

^ and there arent any kits to buy to make it fit- its all custom motor mounts and custom everything.

Red02CivicSedan

Well after a lot of research i settled on saving up for a K20a you guys think that would be good for my es1? or maybe even a k24

MindBomber

^The K series motors are all great, they're just extremely expensive.

Red02CivicSedan

oh man i know. Would the K24 from the CRV fit in my Es1?

s4boost

itbs! theyre really nice. they give good power gains, but theyre not easy to configure properly and its difficult to find a tuner that actually knows how to tune for them.

N/Aallday

ok i kno this is a very old thread. but i believe i have the reciept for a cheep good stroker build for the d17a2!

first d17a2 block with crank, then i took a set of p28 rods and piston in the block which brings me almost dead even to deck hieght.

the only problem im having is i will have a little value Slap im over deck hieght by 0.087 of an inch.

this is after the gasket and everything.

does anybody have any idea's oh how to solve this slight problem?

You wouldn't just magically get VTEC if you swapped in a D17A2 ecu. You'd need to do the head swap.
