i know i will need a safc2 or pcm and other little things
I am not looking for insane power right now, just a little pick me up
thanks guys

 

It does next to nothing. You get somewhere less than 12 HP out of it (compression difference). Having driven a stock EX and a head swap, you cant tell.
Boost the damn thing and be done with it.
