Thanks for the referral guys The reason for the difference in pricing mostly involves the core charge as the 2.4's are cheaper to source than a stock Evo core. With that said our pricing should be very competitive, our customer service is unmatched, and the results in my signature speak for themselves. Please let me know if I can be of any assistance!
Thanks for all your help and honesty on the phone Chris. I look forward to working with you. in the near furture.

I think a LR2.1 (4G64) would be nice if you plan to build a straight race car that lives at the track. Most people now days like a very streetable setup. I personally feel that the LR2.4 (4G64) is the best motor on the road. You get all the goods and none of the bads. A LR2.4 can handle 8500-8600 daily and I would feel safe saying even 9k at the track.
I don't think there is anything wrong with a 2.1, I just think it is not what a lot of people are looking for. I went from a 530hp stock 2.0 to the 650hp LR2.4. Let me tell you that it is night and day. I have great downlow power that the 2.0 didn't have. I can also rev 1000rpm higher than the stock motor. I can talk all day about how amazing my motor is.
Aaron at ER has a LR2.4 just like mine and he said that it would take a lot for him to leave the LR2.4. He has had every motor combo possible and the LR2.4 justs makes more power, can run almost as high rpms, and is much more fun on the streets than any motor he has had, even topping his wild high compression 162mm LR2.2 that he built last year.
I look at my motor - 10.3:1 MIVEC LR2.4 (4G64) much like the Nissan guys look at the RB30/BR26 hybrid. That is pretty much the same thing we do. Take the larger block and mate the performance head to it and do some custom work to make the larger block rev happy Our 2.4s can rev, Kevin revs his std 2.3L to 9250rpms and the LR2.4 is a much happier revving motor than the std 2.3.
ER imho is the best shop for your LR2.4 builds. They have built more than any other shop and they have been building other long rod motors for years! This is nothing new to them.

would the 10.5 comp motor not be good to run for 93 octane? And about running a larger cam, what about those of us on the stock ecu? Im sure arron can take care of that because he is the master of all things tuning and stock ecu, but what about those of us on the east coast lol.
