Well I just ordered new floormats , a new oem keyless entry fob, and a set of these: Oh is that a pillow mount with adjustable camber?? Why yes it is. and hopefully this week Ill be picking these up: Oh and Im also torn between strapping on a Jackson supercharger again, or dropping in the new Skunk2 cams w/S2k springs and retainers. Im kinda leaning towards the cams because Id like to have a nasty all motor....... but the S/C sounded cool........I guess we'll just have to see.

Jimmy, IPS is supposed to make some good cams for the k20a2, but i'm sure you've seen how to make them work w/ the a3 already. I'd say the supercharger would be cool. However, IPS does have a dyno chart of an a2 making 300 flywheel hp. But i'm assuming you're gonna have to go hardcore style to get there. This is all they say - - www.intrinsicperformance.com/products.htmlThis dyno illustrates the potential for IPS-K2's as configured with increased displacement, optimized induction and exhaust systems. Not many companies have "entry level/street application" cams that are 300hp capable. We're just happy to be one of them. Current and prospective IPS-K2 owners may rest assured knowing they'll have plenty of headroom to grow should they decide to unleash the power as proven IPS-K2's are more than capable of attaining. Up to you, my theory is boost is the best bang for the buck. At least for our hondas.

I know im still thinking about boost...... but I have already done this.....I can do cams and valve train plus Hondata K-pro for like $1700. I will be at about 185whp. While the jrsc will cost about $2300. It will come with a powercard (their tuning answer) , but I would want K-pro so I can actually tune it. So thats another $850. But it will net me like 200-220whp. So im still uncertain of what I want to do.

Easier for ME to install once you buy it 3. Because the stupid sticker on my civic says "Boost is Better" 4. Just because 5. Boost sounds more F&F
