umm get the arp head studs
make sure you get the p28
all tho you want power, keep all SMOG items on the car
make sure you torque everything to spec


ya are you gonna resize them after you shot peen'd them?

i retake my thoughts about the shot peend ill just keep them stock
by smog items u mean catalyst?
im going to need a torque wrench to keep everything to spec rite?
now for the nooby question when they tune it there tuning the ecu or what?


ya keep the cat, the evap canister, all that stuff
ya torque wreches arent too much, i got one at harbor frieght for 20 bucks

and i believe they tune off the ecu, not 100% sure there

you read my mind about getting that stuff off harbor....them tuning the ecu wouldnt that affect emission tho.?


i dont think so, not really sure, just when they tune it, ask them to keep smog in mind or go to a tune shop and ask if you can still pass smog and have what you want

Good luck with your build.

thx ill look into it
If you decide to do it, LMK, i fabricate and sell the passenger side bracket needed for that tranny swap into an EG. Unless you can fab your own :)


i dont really think ima go that route even though you can use a b-series lsd which is great...but what got me stumped is teh 5th gear out side of the tranny :?


:eh: 5th gear is on the outside of the trans?? ehh


Yeah, see the black cover, 5th is in that.

#186924 Most of the time they can help you pass emissions after tuning it, or they can mess with it to get it to pass. we do it quite a bit out here lol

I'd do Supertech springs and retainers, Stock valves are fine.

I have stock valves and crower springs and retainers. Also another good set up. If i did it again i'd do supertechs
