See seth this is where being specific comes into play.Do you mean $2000 worth of headwork,port and polishing,or total engine work?There is no way on earth to get 100hp out of PnPing a Honda head.As a matter of fact since the heads come from the factory with fairly good flow,there really isn't $2000 worth of work to do.Also there have been a couple people I seen that thought they could and wound up bogging there motors down so bad that they had to get new heads.

What?Too much fuel?No because if you port a head to much it makes air flow in and out slower.Example,with your mouth,make a O shape and blow air through it,now do it and open your mouth more.You don't get the same velocity.Same theory,your motor forces out exhaust and sucks in a new charge of air.If the openings are too much,air flow is hendered.
