    m20 setup?

    Anybody have any thoughts on this setup? was thinking about running a Myster E head with 280 cams, extrude honed intake manifold, 64.5mm throttlebody, miller maf with war chip and keeping my 19# injectors...worth my money for the gains or not

      I would assume he is doing the hybrid 2.7i which will make more than 10hp un-tuned ;)

      Go with a whodwho megasquirt setup instead but everything else looks good. I run everything you mentioned minus the throttle body and love it.

        How are you going to fit two hundred and eighty cam shafts into an m20 cylinder head?

            For sure. OP said cam(s) for the m20, simple error..... we hope ;)

                oh yeah, my bad...met cam, used to my old eclipse....nah, Myster E said he'd grind cam to spec, and obviously a 288 would be a bit aggressive but Ive hear w/o proper work 272 isnt agressive enough...as far as the 2.7 build, thats also a possibility because I still have my old eta block from my motor swap...just lookin for possibilities...shes got pep but i want more, swapping an e for an i probably wasnt the best choice, but I was looking for the most power with least fab work

                  may have to just boost, cuz I love the handling of this car after the suspension upgrades, but miss the raw spooling power of my eclipse...still gonna need the head work though, but i guess in that case I would just go with like 272 or 274 ground camshaft

                    with a aftermarket cam and boost, u wont have to put down an ass load boost and still make enough HP.
