    get a pic of the crank, no single ring kit should be run on a stock shape crank (need a high compression full circle crank as single ring kits make more power high and less power at low revs, so your engines gonna get a beating, hence you need a well balanced crank to sit hapily at the new peak rpm) will also need a good pipe.

    get a pic of the crank you have, one of us will know what it is.

    athena make the cylinder kits for stage 6 ;)

    if its got a single exhaust port it will be a sport and if its got a bridged port it will be a racing.

    ye just upload it and link (theres a function that turns links into pictures on forums... quote somone with a picture's post and you will see the code, or go to the guide)

    airsal kits are ok once you dso a bit of work but i wouldent recomend one to somone to just bolt on, mine needed lots of work befor it even fitted (piston needed cutrting to clear the conrod, the head was a mess and the ports were all over the place, fucking moved once i sorted it tho) the dr kits aint too bad (just has more torqwue as the ports a little wider) cant go wrong wiht a polini kit tho.
