Default Does any body think this is a good set-up?

I am running a D16A6 with the following mods:

aem cold air intake
aem pully kit
new timing belt
block was resurfaced and cylinders were honed
valve seals
new oem intake and exhaust valves
new head gasket
ported and polished head
unorthodox st-r cam gear
crane stage 2 camshaft
pace setter header
bigger radiator
msd sport compact ignition with street blaster ss coil
new water and oil pumps
act stage 2 clutch with h/d pressure plate
free flow exhaust
zc throttle body

as for suspension:

kyb adjustables with lowering springs
front and rear upper strut bars
brembo drilled, slotted, and zinced plated rotors

I recently purchased some new rims and tires as well.

So what do you think? This is the first engine I have built. Feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Ryan

i would get rid of the pace setter header and find something better (DC)... as for your cam, (crane stage2), did you upgrade your valve springs?.. besides that, everything looks good... good luck

I'm not fond of the header at all. But it was on the car when I bought it. I need to upgrade the springs too.

Why do you think you need a bigger radiator?
