Not long after that:P&P By no means am I knocking any other engine but people don't give the D16Z6 a lot of credit. I am proof that you can get some real power out of a SOHC without spending thousands because I haven't spent more than maybe 800 at most for all the mods to my car. I will not be going f/i cuz I wnt to see just how much power I can get outta this thing. Sorry I have no #'s for you but I live in New Mexico and I'm not gonna pay $60 just to see how much hp I have (I could spend that on the engine) and the nearest 1/4 track is 3 hours away. Should be going to the track soon though.
How in the world did you get all that stuff with less than 800 dollars? If you are beating GT's and Maximas with those bolt ons alone, that is truly impressive. What i/h/e combo are you using?

Also, is that actually your car in the avatar? Im just wondering because I have the same pic from a website I found somewhere. (even had it as wallpaper for a minute)
