Id strip and rebuild it ofc. New piston rings / bearings, small bit of headwork

Is it not possible to swap both the ATR head + ATR inlet and then just slap an ATR ECU in and be done with it?

Yeah I think so.

I thought about this but don't think it would work; the ATR motor is 11:1 compression not 10:1 so wouldn't run well, the injectors a different and pretty sure and there is a knock sesnor on the full ATR motor which would probably result on some codes being thrown

Doh!
Yep that's a fair enough reason then

So what gains would u think i would get with just the head cams? Would it be worth it. How much does a atr head go for these days. Sorry for all yhe Qs im use to turbos instead of vtecs

I think it depends on the condition of your motor and what exhaust & induction you're running TBH. Someone on here recently had 225bhp with spoon chip and I think the same cams as the atr.

I've got 228bhp with my build but that was tuned with a hondata chip @ PAW

how much roughly would be a hondata chip witha tune be. also about the atr head

I think@4thgenphil is selling one for a couple hundred

The chip is £400 plus a further £80 for fitting and £450 for tuning
