i'm from Pinehurst

and the S15 motor is over rated..your better off getting an S13 Redtop or S14 Blacktop.. imo..its not worth the money..i just bought and rebuilt a Redtop

You said SOHC so i assume its a Pignosed S13 correct?

The S15 motor is WAY overrated and a huge waste of money. You could just get an S14 SR with VTC and upgrade to the T28 BB turbo for WAY less money than an S15 SR would cost. With that money you could make the S14 SR KILL the S15 one. Plus, you dont have to deal with the weaker S15 transmission.

i tell people and nobody listens..for the price of the Blacktop S15..i could rebuild my Redtop with cams and ****..that motor is expensive..but, i agree with ry..just buy a redtop or a blacktop..thats my opinion
