Sounds good. Just a idea, would it be cheaper for you to get A ITR engine and do A transplant? Its hard to find good people to build these engines correctly with after market parts. Best of luck with it![]()
Agreed, Honda spent millions on their engines... once you've watched some videos of the precision and passion of how the type R engines were put together you'd worry a bit.
But what the heck, just do it

Oh, btw theres a ITR in Sydney that has 15:1+ compression, 12 is nothing, I presume hondas run better than others with high compression. Most of them in US are running 13. If that ford 1.6 N/A engine is putting out 280bhp then it should be very very hihg in compression too.
