Is this possible? Could a head swap, be a more cost effective alternative to a 3k s/c swap, or a 4k turbo swap?

 

hell no you will not get more power then a turbo or a blower there is power to be made. Not with a 2.4 head but with a ported head yes not as much as your other routes, it will cost less though

 

I meant still keeping the blowe, but a 2.4 head with vvt technology and higher compression won't make a difference?

 

I just don't think that would work to well with our cars

 

higher compression on boost is not necessarily good.. however how much different is the compress between the 2.4 and the lsj...

still though you'll need it ported for it to be any big gains

 

the piston's make up the difference for compression between the 2 i believe

 

Good advice^^^port the head and other goodies,My head job nearly matched the gain of my stg2 cams

 

how huch HP you running then?

 

x2, and what are your track times lookin like?

 

i mean i would be crazy to get a 200WHP all motor 2.4 i know it's slightly off topic but just imagine having it all built then boosting the hell outta it

 

have never takin it to a track guys,just cause the car was so fucked up till this week,six months,twice during that time the head dumped itself,thats how long i went through alot of **** with this car.

 

it sucks being a pioneer

 

one that cost me an extra 2500.00 due to an incorrect cam install>>then again atleast I have a solid valvetrain and nice flowing head

this is why i'm holding back a bit and letting some of the other 2.4s do the rebelkit before I'm totally onboard

 

good call they made some nice numbers, impressive tq

 

eww on the extra 2500 .. thats the cost of a blower right there ...

 

i know,but that was then and this is now,i just got to be patient,and watch what these guys do first,my tune is gonna have to be customized also,the box tune from rebel the way it is right now,might not be the best tune for my car.
