Matts proper ready for track now, went out in this on saturday evening, I can't believe the difference the heat wrap & feels cat has made! It's a lot torquier than my b16b was! Can't wait till the next meet as I should be able to attend.

Lovely car mate. Quite like these. One thing i do miss a bit as well, my 90's Jap hatchback felt a lot more raw and light then the EP3, i'd imagine that's what the EK9 is like? But combined with vtec.

Is it also true vtec on the older honda's, like yours, is a lot more of a kick up the arse?

Looking good.
 
yeh its raw light and the vetec cross over is awesome shes running at 200bhp with 166 at the fly and 146flt tourque :)
 
heres some pics of the new block pre installation and intallation. i had it bored out for the oversized pistons at owlsburry crankservices then it was assembled by roe engineering where they check crank balance, polished it, chemically cleaned it and fitted race shells-
