This looks interesting...

Fireball's annouced their ported & polished head. Very interesting, not too extreme.

........whew......

Now I have a crazy idea. Should I go JCW all the way,..........
or should I add the following thing to what I already have instead:
A new Fireball ported & polished head, Schrick camshaft, Madness header + high flow cat, and ECU fine tuning.

That may be the same cnc'd head that we've been using for the last two years. Ours was developed at M2Race Systems in N.J., a leader in cnc technology for race heads. The M2 head we use has the highest flow numbers of any head on the market and because of its' excellent design we've used these on everything from NA Coopers to our Turbo S with outstanding results. I have the flow comparison numbers for all the available heads somewhere in my archive. I'll try to dig them out and post them.
If you haven't heard about our head, there is a reason. We can't get enough of these things to keep up with the demand and have a waiting list for this install. Maybe the reason M2 is so slow turning my heads around is that they're bangin' big numbers of these things out for Hubie in Cali.

I'll have some loot when I sell my pad, and I'd need it before shipping off to Guam.

Don't worry this project is not going to happen any time soon. Like I said, I have spent 95% of my budget already this year...
Unless.......they have something like "6 months payment with no interest" plan..
