Default whats up with the d17a2's?

what are the specs on these? i was wondering if theirs are more agressive than a y8 and if i could swap a d17 head on my y8. the reason for this is i just put some p29 pistons in my car and finally kept up with a stock d17, i got intake, header exhaust running 13 to 1 comp. Wtf? i thought they had the same hp.

i dont think the D17 head will fit on a D16.

hp and tq
D17A1- 115/110
D17A2- 127/114

the A2, with 7 more ft lbs of tq than the Y8 and 3 more than a B16, it would seem to be a pretty quick engine

Good lord......... if you're gonna modify your car, do it right the first time, with quality parts.

Shitty parts = hardly any performance increase and might even break on you. So you'll end up spending more in the long run because you didn't do it right in the first place.

On ebay you can even find namebrand parts for cheaper than usual.
