I think if it was anything overly complicated, they'd be happy to say
what was done, as they'd know it'd be hard for anyone else to duplicate
anyway..  No.. I think most likly the work they do is porting/polishing
the heads, custom cams, and a free flowing exhaust and an higher power
ignition system.. They might do other little tricks like removing the
deceleration valves and filling the holes in the throttle plate and
advancing the timing a touch but who knows.  If I was rich, i'd spend
the $5250  then dismantle the motor and look to see what they did..
Though if I was rich, I probably wouldn't care. :)

I do think I can arrange to get some dyno time cheap though.. so after
I  do all the little tricks i've found on the various forums about PVR
performance gains, and built a free flowing exhaust, hopefully I can see
just what you can do with the stock b28f  on a very limited budget.
I'll also do my best to document everything I do as well, and share,
even if nothing really helps much.
