Sorry this thread and my ideas are all over the place lol disregard everything until winter is over. Ideally in the long run i want 300ish whp (not from bolt ons) probably just going to source another rev up then and deal with oil consumption and go single turbo with bolt ons and lower compression pistons and forged rods, acl bearings and Arp studs and run like 5-8psi. De is out if the question and i suppose HR is then since it just seems like a waste.

a lot of work for 300hp ... Achilles heel is that exhaust cam phasing gear

your build, not mine...

Welcome from another new member and new Z owner.

I've always liked a well built and tasteful Honda. It's a shame they got such a bad wrap.

Yeah tell me about it. I had a built 9600rpm B16 93 gs-r (DB2) and the kids and thieves turned me away from the scene.

Replaced radio and got real speakers working again
