Finally got the money to work on the head of the R. But now my question is to go with which brand. I was really considering SPOON but then i started to do some research on SKUNK 2 turns out that they have had some really good outcomes too. So i just want the opinions from other R owners out there. And if you all recommend something else let me have it.

Note: this car is getting built for the 1/4 mile. low end power needed.

 

are you talking internal parts or actual headwork (valvejob, port and polish, etc...)

as far as actual headwork look at
RLZ
Alaniz
Portflow
Don Florez
there's tons actually.

as far as cams you have some more research to do.

 

well another one i was thinking of was TODA but to me it seemed a little too pricey...anyone here running on this.....open to opinions.

 

It all really depends on your expectations for power and drivability... I'm going with M22x's by Rocket Motorsports because many have had great gains all over the powerband as well as maintaining a good idle.

Jun 3's should also be another cam to look up, just use the search function... th ere has been millions of cam threads.

 

if you're building for drag racing you want high end power. what other mods do you have?

 

Rocket Motorsports M22X/M22XX work well in C5's as do Skunk2 Pro1's.

 

^^i was thinking bout ding the whole head with skunk 2 never heard anything negative about them...just want the opinion from true R owners.

other mods:
Buddy club spec 3 cat back
Just ordered the SMSP header.

It was a joke, I was pointing out that you've done little head research and then order the baddest (plus most expensive) header on the fly.... not hating at all though, at least you didn't get a DC or something.

 

haha cool beans dude i read onthe cams you mentiond really caught my attention too.....and the dude gave me a badass price on the whole package too.

 

supertech valvetrain and some blox c cams....(almost similar to the toda c cams in profile and in testing)DONE! and not too bad of a dollar amount for this stuff either!

Was it Aquafina? I'm waiting for his PM back on the package price.

 

Thats a helluva header you bought. There are several ITR guys running it. Don't know much about this water character you speak of.
