havent u been talking bout this new motor for like 3 years now. you aint got nun!!! lmao

but on the other note: i met a guy on barrett a few years ago with a d16 vtec. he had a s2 intake mani, underdrives, and 4-1 header and the gasket. he said the gasket (oddly enough) gave him the most noticeable power gain. his car, his word, so id hope he wouldnt feel the need to lie about it. besides he didnt look like a salesman from hondata.

id like to do a b4 and power gain test on it. but id like to do a b4 and after test on every damn part made. i love R & D.
