Right guys, I have also research the Jun Stroker last night but its alot more expensive, probabiliy as they don't use stock honda items. The price is $5,543.



This will take it to a 2.0Litre but will also require a boring to 82mm.

I can either go with,

1. Spoon Stroker, ECU and then Jun 3 Cams, Springs, Retainers, Cam Gears

2. Jun Stroker, ECU, Cam Gears (to see if I can get more out of stock cams)

My only worry at first was is it safe to bore to 82mm and also is it safe to use a 2.0litre stroker? I know Jun products are of superb quality as I currently have a Jun Exhaust Manifold. Has anyone used this stroker before and if so what did you think? Will it give me alot more over my stock 1.6 setup?

Thanks.

Have you ever had anything balanced before. I'm telling you, your machine shop will NOT be able to make the crank any more balanced, same goes with the pistons. I've done this too many times.

Option 1 Look good enough.

You will have a bigger bottom end and some head work cams tunning will get you some major hp. Most people when they go Big they upgrade the 16b bottom end. I was going to do the same thing and keep my ctr pistons then I found out K20 soo

blah

BRAND NEW OEM PARTS, ASWELL AS USED OEM PARTS. IS THAT HARD TO UNDERSTAND?

My USED LS crank was 100% perfectly balanced before I took it to my machine shop. So unless yours or the one you are buying is damaged, there is no need to buy a brand new crankshaft. Same goes for the pistons. Jesus, is it that hard for you guys to understand?

YOU DON'T NEED TO BUY BRAND NEW PARTS UNLESS YOURS ARE DAMAGED. Take a used set of pistons and rods to be balanced, find out yourself. The rods are the only thing I have ever seen that need to be balanced, and they were barely off.

I would never buy used parts maybe your pefereance is used parts.

for 1000 I wouldn't mind getting the spoon kit. Its worth every penny.

if they aren't used I would eat them

no need to balance/throw them away if they are new right

I don't see the reason to buy used parts maybe they are cheaper I guess how cheaper are they you gotta ask

bossman..you would never know if spoon actually took the crank for their stroker kit off a USED ITR.. for $1000,i would rather buy scat or crower crank which they made themself and not oem honda. im not saying spoon isnt good,im saying u r paying too much for just their name.
