That's an incredibly moot point. You can't compare it to new cars, unless the original post was "should I use the 4-port block, or buy a new car?" And I couldn't find "street machine" in the dictionary, totally subjective term.




Why bother then? To keep up or beat cars that are 20 years old?



"Street machine".....you are right. Anything that can be ridden on the street, with an engine can be call that.

(e.i. a moped, a go-cart , electric scooter, Car, etc) Which one do you have?





SEN2TWO..... I am sorry this thread went off subject. Perhaps we can get back on it.



His question was:



1. 4 port does make more power right?

2. do you recomend using the stock TII harness with a SAFC or some piggy back? Or is the microtech

worth the money?

Check out Paul Yaw's site. They built the same engine you're talking about for a track car. Think it put down 227 to the wheels.

2006 Cicic si 190 hp

2006 Eclipse GTS 210 hp

2006 RSX Type S 210 hp

2005 Corolla XRS 170 hp

2006 Mustang 210 hp

2005 Rx-8 238 hp
You didnt list Wheel Horse Power (WHP,RWHP) in any of those cars...

I would be surprised if any of those cars made 200 hp at the wheels.

It has been done with good results before but I would recommend that you stay away from the high CR rotors if you are going to be reving the engine past 9500.



Different metal hardness between the two types of higher compression rotors. The 9.7s are softer.
