N/A FD motor
O.K. my first post here it goes.
1. I would like a hiiiiiiiiigh revvvvvving N/A motor in my car. I am awrae that you can't pport and have a streetable car, but I then came accross the mentioning of a FEED or Knightsport N/A kit. Is this fact or fiction? I understand tuning would be involved, it always is. Does anyone have any suggestions on this matter. Its not that I don't like the turbor, alright it is
2. Does anyone know of a place to purchase replica Panspeed items, you will occaisionaly come across advertisments in the back pages of those import magazines, I mean Honda rice brochures, but the websites don't work for example makoautotrends.com
a source for replica RE, PS, KS, FEED ect.
Time is of the essense 93,XXX miles on origonal motor, the countdown has begun

So, let me get this straight. You want to remove the turbos and run N/A with a huge port.
w/turbos: you can have a mild streetported engine running 12 psi making over 320 rwhp over a wide powerband -- the motor will probably last atleast 60k
w/o turbos: you can have a bridgeported or peripheral-ported, barely streetable car making far less than 320 rwhp -- the motor will probably last 30k tops, probably less
Does this idea make sense? Just because it's been done doesn't make it a good idea....
