Whatever you do your gona want more of it later, so the best thing for your wallet and your sanity is to deside NOW what path you wana take... Turbo, or normally asperated.

Engines built for turbo (not talking puss turbo[ie: <7lbs boost]) usually have a low compression ratio (7:1, 6:1) mellow cam(s) and no v-tec. These things are awesome (and needed) to make a normally asperated engine run fast and quick but will work against a real turbo engine at higher boost pressures. Also, if you do build a boosted monster you'll hafta beef up the bottom end (B/B everything, new rods, pins, turbo rings...ect). Starting to get the picture? ...It ain't cheap.

BOTTOM LINE-----> If ya got da bucks (I say) go full-on turbo. If not, stick to the biggest v-tec you think you can get away with, and build on that. Whatever you deside, pick a path and stick with it. Unless your rich, then you can just have engines laying around

hmmmmmm... think I'll put the turbo one in and drive that today! *sips martinie*
