Shouldnt it be "Stage" not "Gen"?
Could you explain what is in each Stage? Like... exactly what is done.

This is the same set-up that has been kicked around on this site over the last couple months....just improved pricing...search the earlier threads looking for "3.5L" and the Gen I vs. Gen II info will be included in these posts.
Thanks...
Thanks...

Hmmm... doesn't seem worth it to me. Only 30 more hp? On a FWD car its pretty futile.

I read most of your 3.5L posts, and I could never figure out what you meant by Gen I and Gen II. Based upon the fact that mchtypeS got the Gen I in his CL-S, I've concluded that the Gen I v. II does not refer to the difference between Type-P or Type-S engines, or first gen TL/CLs v. second gen TL/CLs. But, with respect to the expected HP and torque improvements for the Gen I and Gen II upgrades, I've never seen separate numbers posted for Type-P upgrades v. Type-S upgrades. Is the 3.5L going to be available for Type-Ps? If so, what are those expected HP and torque gains?

Syncivic, can we buy just the performance heads? If so, will they work with the stock 3.2L? Are they just stock heads that have been ported and polished? I'd buy a set of heads but I don't want to have my engine rebuilt to a 3.5L. Thanks.
