    yeah i have that setup. only i have the z1 head.

    with just the z1 head swap i made 172hp tuned. in the kpro listed calibrations there is one that make that power for bolt on on the a3. one members bro made that and i was shocked. so doin just the head swap than it's not worth it. but since i put the s/c on it is great. at 3k the boosts kicks in and at 4k(where i set vtec) the engine opens up and the rpms just skyrocket.

    i have not yet had a chance to get it tuned yet. still planning to get the 3.8" pulley, 2.5" tensioner pulley, maxbore the TB and get it tuned

    I'm Jealous of your setup minus the no tune! Man get tuned and let us know what you are putting down.

    [QUOTE=The only better alternative to this in theory is a K24a1 head with cams/K20a3 bottom end. Mostly because the K24a1 head flows better than any of the VTEC styled heads.[/QUOTE]

    I think the same as you about the heads in the long run, however after talking to a good tuner, he told me that with a blower it is forcing air in so fast that porting and different head will not be that much greater than another.

    If you are going K24, I would suggest a three lobed cam with the blower. Or go with a strickly VTEC killer set up K24, they make killer power
