Why are you going solid? Is your car going to be DD or strictly a dragster?

It's relevant because a DD will be nearly unbearable with soilds as all of the NVH is transmitted to the rest of the car. Especially if you plan on doing up the motor or get a lopey cam.

^^^ What he said, my buddy had solids in his RSX Type S and it was really rough riding around in that thing. I'm pretty sure that VTEC 2.0L is much smoother then a SBF.
