something wrong?

I dunno ... at 9000 mHz, my vtech head has a nice ring to it ... easier to work on and it's a big upgrade from rotary


really though ... you'd probably be better checkin honda tech ... most of the 7g's people's skills are limited to intakes and coilovers ... (I'm not lucky enough to be familiar with coilovers either)
