Default Which one

ok guys im in the process of building my GSR and today is the blessed day i can order everything but there is two issues to have.

connectings rods
clutch kits

My thing is i was going to buy the billet crowerods but then my mechanic says that i can go with the econo- rods and be just fine. Billet says can handle high everything and econo says low boost . what is considered low boost? Should i go for the econo instead of the billet?

Secondly im looking for a good clutch and flywheel kits. Any ideas of who to go with. I was thinking about getting the TODA kits.

Please help a fellow honda mad scientist!!!

what kind of power are you shooting for?? That will determine which rods and clutch you want to go with.....

go with billet rods, better to overkill the setup than under estimate it.

When you post could you make your titles a little clearer and more specific like "Which rods and clutch kit"? I think you'll get a lot more responses that way. Saying "Which one" is like saying "Can I", it's meaningless! Nothing personal, just trying to not waste everyones bandwidth.
