But seeing engine choice in new type-r i guess even for honda, with it's best inline-4 NA engines, it got too hard to keep up in game with stricter and stricter smog regulations/standards. In that light i'm not that sure that FA20 couldn't be more efficient if the regulations were more laxed, and imho comparison to forced induction engines makes it too undeservedly devalued, while in reality it's efficiency is rather remarkable, even while conforming latest regulations.

I know it's off topic but have you seen the amount of free information CSG Mike has given out on these forums?

Will be interesting to see some results from CAMS/Bolt Ons for the 2017 intake as it appears to shift the peak power to the right slightly. Other than that there doesn't appear to be an affordable intake option on the market.

The engine is pretty well sorted with just bolt ons + E85. Useable torque curve with 200 peak WHP is nothing to complain about... 250+BHP would be nice though.
Stick to the 2013-2016 intake manifold over the 2017+ IM.

The best line I have ever heard about our competition selling product was, "This product was validated by CSG so you can expect it to be good. PM for price."

Piper Cams Ultimate 285

I’m running Piper Cams 285 Ultimate and the midrange is awesome. Talk to your builder for valve clearance. You want these done right. Also put the best valve springs(Nitirited or Titanium)and port your heads. 9000RPM
