what do YOU think?
realistic budget?
goals?
what are you trying to do with the car?

It looks like a list of parts to me and there is a good chunk of information to be read in this forum regarding this exact type of build. You can also read and view the multitude of dyno graphs which show how far these setups are making power to and give you an idea of what they are revving to.

All you are going to get here is a bunch of random people giving you 100 different opinions. The same opinions posted in the same build advice questions which isnt going to do you any good.

So, what do YOU think about what you have planned? What lead you to pick these certain parts?

Without useful information this is just another thread thats going to get closed.

Hi

The car is a everyday car, with some trackday´s in the weekend.
I want a good engine, not the most powerful, and of course reliable.
I read almost all information in the foruns and i have some doubts most about the valvetrain.
My budget is low, but i prefer wait and spend a litle more for good parts, before assemble the engine.
To suplement the engine i will mount a S4c gearbox with DC2/EK9 Lsd with 4,4 FD.
The car has already mounted Tein flex coilovers, 300mm front brakes from a EP3 and in the rear 262mm from a Dc2.

Thanks for your help
