Default Got some cash, whadya think?

Well, I got about $1000 coming to me in a week or two, so I'm trying to decide what to do with it. My car will be out of the body shop on Tuesday, so it'll look brand new, now I need some more go (again). I already procured an F22 with 60k on it from a local junkyard (for 150), and it is chillin on an engine stand waiting for some work to be done. I already have a whole gasket kit for it, for a rebuild, and a new timing belt. Now, I was thinking if I save some more cash up (not hard, I got a new job), this is what I wanna do.

Gude race package (head, intake mani, throttle body, cam)
Crower rods
Pistons
I/H/E
V-AFC
Other misc stuff.

What do ya think, build it or what? (the Gude package alone is a pretty big chunk, 1600 I think)

Thanks for the info. I hadn't really heard to much about it or what it does for it, but I thought I'd try it. I will need something as far as ECU is concerned since the cam is pretty hot so it would benefit from some tuning. What do you suggest?

Your going all motor I take it and in this case I would say Spoon if they make one for it or check out the Mugen program.

If you can afford it Hondata.

Try sending your ecu to hondata and tell them everything. They will program it to get the most out of the engine.

I checked out there website and their program for what I would probably need is around $295. Not bad I think. But I would need to get either a Prelude or Integra ECU.
