    if your going to go boost...do it right. Pull the engine out. Keep the stock block. put forged internals in it (obviously), port an polish your stock head maybe do a valve job and cams and gears. I would keep the stock non vtec head.

    once you get the forged internals, it doesn't mean you have to run 20 psi, but you have the security that your motor will be able to handle almost anything u give it.

    plus when u yank the motor you will have all brand new gaskets, and nice clean engine and not some worn out, leaking, dirty motor.

    That was kinda my plan. I have an extra head that just needs the valves replaced, and I was gonna have it ported and polished anyway. I just need to find another block to stick it on cause I dont have another car to drive while mine sits in pieces for a few days.
