It is time to put the wallet down and step away when you start wanting/needing a stand-a-lone EFI system for your 22re.
After these two mod's, the 22r series just doesn't have that much reliable hp left to find, and milking out what is left tends to make cost more than it is worth.

Yup
I've been down to putneys shop and seen 22r/e motors that where about as built as you can go, supercharged, 20/22 hybrids, ect. He built one recently with a ridiculous amount one-off parts and a HUGE snail bolted to it. He said it should be good for 300+ hp, the price tag was around 9k.
I have about 1800 right now into rebuilding a 22re and that's with mostly stock parts.

If I didn't live in California and I where to do it again I would definitely be looking into a turbo diesel swap.
