    I prefer SR's. I deal with RB's alot and they become a hassle quickly whenever something goes wrong. Joey, as a DD I'd get an S14 SR with some mods and rock out with about 330whp. Just get a 2871R or go baller with a Full-Race twinscroll 3071. For the 330-350whp range I'd stick with a 2871R and keep the stock manifold or extrude hone it for a little better flow. There's enough ROM tunes now for the S14's that you can build a reliable setup without spending a great deal of money. If you want north of 400whp get the 3071 setup and a standalone. Of course this will require some motor work to keep it reliable but still better than the RB in my opinion. Of course I'm a little too obsessive with a cars weight and simplicity so that's much of my reasoning against RB anything in the S chassis cars.
