I meant like to the crank, so I guess I was pretty close. I don't see why you would wanna drop that much $ on something with that baseline. A swap or a different seems like a better investment. It's just like when people mod a non vtec d series. Seems pointless when you can do a head swap or a b series swap for around the same cost.

the point is, it's more satifying to make a slower car fast. And it's harder. Anybody with the funds can go to the dealership and buy a fast car, and do well in motorsports event with minor work... but where is the blood and sweat in that? There are so many fast Evos and s2000's and STI's and Mazdas speeds... it's not uncommon. What is great is passing those guys on the track. And it can be done. Nobody remembers that "fast Evo" at track day, because there were 5. People remember the Yaris or xA that passed that evo though.
