someone told me that a couple of companies that sell j-spec engines test them before they sell them, but im not 100% sure thats true. where are you getting the engine from? im getting mine from jdmenginescorp.com



a compression test is easy, but how do you test to see if it smokes?

Nice HP doesn't come cheap.... lol.



I'm not going to give the guy a sugar coated answer, I learned the hardway that trying to do things "cheap" is a really bad way to start a project...

yeah, cheaper isnt always better, but sometimes there are really good deals on really good parts.

My thing is, you get what you pay for... its not a risk if your rich, but if not, just save up and buy the better part..
