Or, you can wait till I'm done with my F23A4 build too... est. 1 more month. Custom Regrind from WebCam, Head Work ( for flow and higher compression), stock bottom end, AEM Intake, Fuel and Cam Gear, Underdrive Crank Pulley, Headers, Exhaust and possibly a Skunk2 Throttle Body all tuned by P28 Hondata, similar to what "mck52689" did, nice job by the way! Hopefully the H series manual trans. & racing clutch help the numbers at the wheel too. I'll enjoy this while I rebuild the original F23A1 with a turbo, it should be decent but I agree, 200HP is pushing it without nitrous or turbo kit.

TY VtecHex, its way better to build an accord up instead of buying one like that.... im impressed with yours.... I think it is better if you can make a sohc faster than a dohc, thats why i wanan do that.... i had a civic and i did that and got the number up higher. I would like to turbo mine but with high compression i could only run low amounts of boost. but I hope your project goes good also

RE: Getting 50 hp w/o turbo

One of these days when I have some extra cash (did I mention I'm married....so yeah...) I want to pull my motor and do a mean build on it, but I'm planning on 10-15k into the engine alone to make it one mean beast.... I think it's going to be a 2 year build.... The sad thing is that I'll never get any of that money back out of it...
