My specific application:
97 gsr, 120k stock except for intake.
If possible, provide links where i could find the stuff im lookin for )
I want a mid/low 14 second teg for just daily driving. What kinda of headers are best bang for the buck? I dont need full race spec, but i dont want the ebay special.
Valvetrain: I just want a better sounding vtec. Was thinking itr/ctr cams/springs retainers. I can get all that for $450 shipped, 20k on them. Should i spend a few hundred extra and get a stage 2 cam with better springs/retainers? (i.e crower). OR should i be satisfied with ctr cams?
I plan on taking off the oil pan and checking out the bearings, if i find significant wear- can i replace them without taking the block out, or is it a good idea to get the cylinders honed out and cleaned up? (i'd prefer not to if i dont have to.) Thanks in advance! (feel free to post some things for sale if you have a good deal)

Throw out some ideas of engines mods that are a good bang for the buck. Maybe a 50 shot of nitro?


PS... how high should i be able to rev with the ctr setup vs. crower, and how big of a hp/tq difference should there be between ctr vs. crower? (stupid Q i know, but im just curious if anyone has dyno'd with both of those)
