already PP
best flow of all three
saves you from headaches and $$$$
OEM Specs.
but really hard to get..

 

Type R, but yes hard to find. Remmeber though it would be a good idea to upgrade pistons and rods sicne you'll be reving so high.

 

Sell your 2001 and buy a gsr or a type r. They will still make more reliable power and w/all the cash you saved you could look into getting some mods, i.e. turbo/nitrous/sc/built internals.

 

I think is pretty obvious that a Type R would be the best way to go. ..but like everyone already said and i'm sure you already know, it'll be quite a bit more expensive. . . What I would do, even if i HAD the money to get a Type R head. . . would be get a B16 head and either reinforce the bottom end, or do some head work to get thad head breathing even better. . .

 

Not hard to find because I have a 99 JDM ITR head for sale!

 

if youre car is an 01 id sell it and buy a gsr unless you know people that will build your ls/vtec properly...you'll be better off w/the gsr. or just go FI

 

I personally got a B16 head because they are the same cast as the Type R and cost a helluva lot less. But if i had the money, i woulda definetely gone w/ a ITR head. They already got the double valve springs, great cams, and a decent P+P.

 

If u got da $$$$ get a ITR head if u don't, then get the poor mans ITR head (ie a B16 head)
if your goin to do an LSVTEC, don't just go and slap a VTEC head on a non VTEC block, u need to make sure u build the LSVTEC correctly to ensure reliability.

 

and how much for that itr head?

 

did somone im me? im a newbie and x'd it out thinking it was spam!!

 

gettin the ls really wasnt up to me i was like forced into gettin the one i got..not that i didnt want an integra but yea i would have preferred a gsr.. **** happens

Click on your profile and check your IM history.

 

didnt u say it was already a lsvtec the day before you bought it? ....stretch u gotta search before u make a post or ur gonna get ripped. just about every topic you can think of has been discussed already.

 

i got a b16a head and thats fine. honestly there isnt too much difference between the heads. ur gonna be happy with any one of those

 

what about a civic Type R head? dont they have better cams and valve train?

True. He also said it was an Acura Certified LS/VTEC that came from the factory ;x lol but that's besides the point. Screw LS/VTEC go LS-Turbo you'll push better numbers with less headaches if you know what you're doing.

 

TURBOOOOOOO
