Well, Im pulling my motor, and I was wondering, I might as well buy some stuff to beef up HP a tiny bit. Dont really want to go turbo (I want a this to be my winter car). So I was thinking:

1- 1.8L Cam
2- 65mm BBTB
3- Airram intake Manifold

Does that sound good enough?
If I get the Cam should I get the Cam sprocket too?

If you don't plan on putting out lots of power, you can get away with just porting and polishing your stock manifold smile.gif

If you are pulling your engine.. and this assumes you have a stick. I might suggest a Fidenza lightened flywheel. To remove your old flywheel and have it resurfaced would cost you half of what it would cost to put a lightened flywheel in and gain back some of the HP the engine uses to drive itself.

Beware though, first time you try and drive with a lightened flywheel.. you ARE going to stall.
