what should i do

i just want everyones opinion on what i should do. at the moment i have an HKS catback exhaust, dc headers , shortram intake, act stage 2 clutch, and clutch masters lightweight flywheel. i was thinking about getting a port and polish, new cam, cam gear, vavle springs, and retainers for 2000 with install. or should i not waste my money and just drop it and but some unorthodox pullies in there with mabey a throttle body and intake manifold. thanks for the imput

you should really consider an h22 swap...you can get a motor (no tranny) for about 1300 plus shipping the install should be around 500-600....

all the parts you have right now can be used except for the header...trust me you will be happy

And also D98, I know you kept the CL tranny for the long gears with your turbo, but how was it without the turbo?? Did the longer gears make the stock h22 lag?? thanks

with the stock tranny i was able to run a 14.7 (that was completely stock)... the car did not feel sluggish at all it actually felt pretty good
check out www.hmotorsonline.com for the motor
if you call them ask to speak to steve

it doesnt come with an ecu but you can get them for about 200...

I never knew you had a H22a swap. I got to meet up with you sometime to see it. I would get it if I had a stick and someone to install it for a cheap price.

If I had the cheeze I would but I don't. You have any parts that I can buy from u that can fit my 2.2 auto??? The only way I might buy the engine from u is if you can get it for me for 900 and installed. But don't I have to convert it to a stick if I do the swap?
