Stage 2 Head??

2nd September 2005, 15:35

hello,

what sort of price and power gains am i looking at, if i get my head to a stage 2 ported and polished and gasflowed?

cheers

stage 2 really means not a lot as each company makes up there own stages.

Ported and flowed really doesnt give much gains unless teamed with other modifications i would spend the money on something else tbh

surely a polished n flowed head teamed with a good induction kit n full xzorst will give a decent power gain?

i've got a bmc induction, and prob will get a stainless steel 4-2-1 manifold and full exhaust including decat,

what sort of price am i looking at then for a ported, polished and gas-flowed head?

cheers

the rover on reved up on the discovery h&l channel spent £2500 and did the head,indution kit and a full exhaust and it only gave him 10hp extra.

my mate scott had his vtr done for about £200 i think.

im with scott though, i would spend it on something else?

what could i spend it on apart from, 4 branch manifold and exhaust plus de-cat??

personally i'd go for cams, breathing mods and a remap before thinking about headwork.

why not get head and cams together mate
