awesome!

I spoke with ttp and even they said as long as I keep it uner 7845, I will be fine on the stock valvetrain. I just wanted to see what everyone has done and their experiences.

TTP installed my M2's. Before the M2's i had GSC Mivec 280's, and the M2's make a huge difference in top end. Much happier with the Cossie's.

I also have stock valvetrain, but I never rev past 7200.

I don't want to do ti retainers, I may wait to do a build and do it all then. BUT I'm not sure what I want to do lol we'll see what happens.
