Not even CLOSE to being true. Me, Adam (NJHK), Owen Stampflee, and a few others all have them on our cars. If they did nothing I would not be selling as many and I'm sure someone would have complained by now. If they were no good I'd know and someone would have mentioned it on here by now.
Anyways...I love the head. Very well done and very easy to install, well relatively. I do not have dyno numbers before and after because I did so much at one time when I put mine on. I know both Owen and Adam reported definate gains after installing their heads, and I'm sure everyone else with them will say the same. I have another one sitting right next to me waiting to go out to another member of this site today actually.

Okay with all this talk about swiping heads off junkers...now someone sells them? What's the price?
Also...motor mounts for a '96 Sunfire GT 2.4L? cams? ...all the good stuff.
I want something "mid range" not full race. I SCCA race and do 1/4's but want something I can drive every day and not have to worry about fixing constantly because of the HP's. ...and I want to stay NA...
Thanks! G
If i wanted a civic i'd have had japanese parents! now figure out how to make this fit!!

Who's talking about taking heads off junkers?
We're talking about a 100% new cast, completely P'n'P head with a brand new valvetrain.

...sorry...cross threading...meant all the other threads that talk about getting heads off certain older cars to swap into your 2.4...etc.
I've been going to junk and salvage yards with the lists from the stickys looking for heads and what not to swap out...and read this thread and see someone makes a head that's as good or better than the older swap heads...
I can never find this shyt when i'm searching online...

You go ahead and do that then. Some people like buying proven parts instead of having to do it themselves.
