Dizzzam!!!
Doesn't look like you lost anything...in fact the b20 dip is gone. Tq curve much, much better. Hp much better. Man, you have experience with everything NA it seems now. What are your plans now? Better header? P&P head? n2o? Bigger cams?
Your setup right now seems great for the street. Rpms aren't extreme, but your power is great! I hope we get some good kill stories from ya soon. I may have some too when I can afford the rest of the stuff to go with this damn turbo kit.

HX Guy, what made you go VTEC? Were you sick of the idle or did you not want to do anymore on the head (i.e. getting some serious porting done)? I'm basically planning on having your old setup one day except with stage 2 porting & valve job etc.

Yep, the idle and gas milage sucked ***...plus there wasnt enough vacuum at idle so it RAN way rich and there wasnt a thing I could do about it. My eyes used to actually get sore from the gasoline in the air.

God damn. I'm all sold on doing up my LS and I see both guys on this board that had good results (you and halo) go crvtec. However if I did do CRVTEC I could only afford to use a stock B20B modified with a girdle, and a ported VTEC head with stock B16A2 cams for approximately the same price. Oh boy, I've got to have a nice long talk with my engine builder...
