Wow, thank you for taking the time to provide such a detailed response. I thought of the runner moving, but did not consider actual shrinkage as in the runner getting shorter, though it makes sense. I'll keep truckin, and save that in the memory bank for an evo I got lined up. As for mine, hopefully she don't crack we'll see. Prolly end up doin a small heim brace.

Lol I don't think I'll be getting too far ahead. I needa get some Skilla. Why the vvti motor might I ask? The vvti head is one of the worst flowing ones, and valve tining is difficult to even take advantage of depending on your management system.

Two part really. One, started with a VVTI GE engine and already had a ton of wiring and electrical stuff to make it run...Two, to just be different. The flow research I've read really wasn’t all that conclusive and very one sided so we'll see. I'm going to be running AEM EMS V2 so I'll have control of the VVTI.

Well, hopefully its not differently slow. Best of luck to ya, heard the new AEM is a bit of a diff operating system but not too bad. Should be interesting. I have seen some is300's that are quick. Just is a lot of hassle to say you have vvti.

Thanks tom!
