So... you riced out your car?

Eh whatever. I woulda gone whale ***** CAI if I was you, it's apparently better for our cars. I don't get the tach, mine came with one, I think yours should have as well.

Yeah. Or a mini-me swap would work. d15y7 block with a d16 non vtec head. Then turbo it and you're set.
