Whats that? Lotta terms I dont understand here. You guys are getting too in depth.

I'm going to be using this car as a daily driver. So I need good reliability and good power for the occasional street race. I'll want to be able to fiddle around with it on my in my drive way. So I assume it would be better to have a carbed engine. But I want to have the power of a 13B so I think I'll carb a 13b.

Another question is that, are parts interchangeable between a 13b and a carbed 13b. Parts like exhaust, headers, just the basic bolt ons.

Thanks for all the info guys. Keep em comming, but keep in mind I'm a newbie. So keep the vocabulary down.

hey swiftone you want 220hp out of the box, trash you engine and put a 89-91 tII engine, wiring harness and computer, with a 3 inch exaust and a k&n filter you have 220 hp or more. but that my opinion
