I have the all out port job. The one that costs $850.

And i would like to tell you guys, on 4.5 psi i spin my azenis at the top of 1st, into 2nd, and the top of second, and into 3rd. Feels faster than my 9 psi 13.6 run. I dunno, i may take it to the track on friday.

The $850 is for the FI port work. There is more that dave can do, but he said for a car on the street, this is the most he would recommend. If you have an all out racecar, let me know. We will get you a price on whatever you want.

We have a core. So you wont have much down time. All you have to do is send us your stock head when you swap them.

Yes other heads gain what they gain but I'm being realistic here.

Better gains would come from a nice size cam.
yuup i have a ported head and yes there was a difference but a cam would be nice

As soon as the core is ported, it is going out. And hopefully you will have your stock one back to us as quick as you can so we can get it ported for the next guy. But we will have more than 1 core.

i think i read in this or the other post that all heads are the same, but it is the piston that the ex and lx is different. i 'm 99 percent, some clear it up for me.

Well, when the core is finished, that is when you will pay and we will send the head.

We will have 1 lx and 1 ex core to start off with.

Has anyone seen the pistons on the new hybrid civics? Check out the compression and someone tell me if you think they can fit in our civics. They are exact size i belive but putting those pistons in our car would make us have to use higher grade gasoline. SOmeone let me know.

I should be getting the core within the next week. The group buy will be open as soon as the core arrives.

can someone please try to get a dyno with the headwork on an NA engine...that would help a lot and it will clear up most of the HP gain controversy

i would, but i need a header before i do that. It just wouldnt do it justice to dyno it with a cheeze ball intake and a stock header.
