    import performance

     



    A friend from work asked me if I port heads, of course I answered yes.

    He brought me a head from a VTEC Honda engine that hes been playing with for a while. He also brought an intake and a very nice ceramic-coated header.

    I thought that would be the end of his modifications. Little did I know...

    He had the head O-ringed, installed a new cam with adjustable sprockets, and installed a very loud supercharger.

    This car is FAST

    I normally don't get worried until the car is upside-down, but damn, this thing flew. All drivers in Northwest Florida: Beware a very stock-appearing black Acura Integra...you have been warned...

    Lil' buggers can be fast too. You just have to work much harder and be much smarter to get the HP out of those little engines.
