1) how is a D series motor NOT a interference motor? please explain, last time i checked they use a timing belt, cam gear around the crankshaft. it controls the valve opening with a timing belt, its an interference motor, all hondas are.

2) If you want to say that using a 100shot on a stock D series is reliable, then thats OPINION, i have seen PLENTY of D series motors pop with spray, not alot pop on turbo. Nitrous build cylinder pressure faster, has more heat, and the CAST OEM pistons dont like it. sorry, i wouldnt recomend it.

3) If it were my call, the best thing to do would be a turbo SOHC, itll make 200+whp, MORE TQ THAN ANY SWAP YOU COULD POSSIBLY DO, and they are cheap if they pop. Scotty has had his for 3 years boosted, non vtec, 10psi.

4) A gsr with bolt ons CAN GO 13s in the right chassis. But, its still a stock 150whp motor. However, the GSR is very easy to mod, turbo or na, an it can handle 300whp, D series cant, B16s/LS cant. not RELIABLY.

5) I have plenty of dynos to back it up, stop by anytime.

6) It costs MONEY, plain and simple, people that want to shop around, buy used parts, slap together a bunch of stuff from ebay etc, be prepared to face the consequences.

7) My resume is longer than most poeple on this board. from my 190whp OEM motor that only few remember i had 2 years ago, to my 240whp lsvtec. i know what it costs, and you cant do it for $3000. you might be able to, but dont say reliable in the same sentence.

8) until i see RESULTS from people an not "im building something that makes XXX", i take everything with a grain of salt. the way it sits right now, i had the highest whp all motor car, and no one has beaten it YET.

9) Turbo D series, if you want fast. YOu mentioned kevins motor, he had a $3000 b16 swap, blew it up, then built a $3000 swhortblock, with tuning, an everything else , hes got $7000 in his car. His car only runs 14s because he HASNT TUNED WITH NITROUS YET, HIS MOTOR WAS BUILT FOR NOS, NOT ALL MOTOR. so dont compare his track times

Mike you make good Points....But Not everyone likes to be in the Spotlight...lol... Something as simple as a B18b N/A could run 13's....
I think we all have been in this game for a While...I know I have.. No point in making All kinds of Claims...
Its not easy to dump 5k in anything, Not unless you have other resorces..
If you like to be known then so be it...But there are other people that will out run you and may not have Half the money in there car... I'm still new to the Forum yes, So People don't know What I have or have had... I could give a Shit... I have Fun When I want and try to pick fair races... Damn Some dyno numbers Thats how I see it... To much goes into the other things, Not just the Motor..
You can have 400 whp and get Drug by a 200whp car in the 1/4 mile.. Make a Car useful and Make it make Sense.....No Sense in braging about what HP you have..
Its always somekind of Pissing contest on here...WHY ?.. We all like cars, So wtf... There is always a Smart ass that claims to know shit yes...We know what we know and unless you have been around the person you have no clue for sure... Its life on the internet.... ... I'm done with my Rant and I wasn't pointing any fingers.. ...Later...
