do you plan on closing the deck?? i mean if you are planning on running 14-16lbs of boost, it would be suggested. What are your plans for the headgasket? The stock gasket will pop under that pressure. The cams cannot be ground that much to make a significant gain it would not be worth the money to have them done. There was a deep discrussion about valve spring tension and what it's reactions would be under boost. Check the Stage III development thread twards the end. Subafreak was the one who recently blew the motor due to a low launch and early activation of the Nitrous. Poweredx2 was the other person to break a rod from running a little too lean on a 150 shot dry. Well I hope this helps....you may be able to buy custom pistons fitted for the ej22t and utilize them in the eg33 just for money sake but that is still up in the air also. Good luck with your project, we all wanna see what this eg33 can do.
