Default head options for 2.1 stroker or 2.35 in hawk sti

if somebody went for a 2.1 stroker (2.0 block) or a 2.35 (ej22 block) in a hawk sti what would be their options for heads as i believe the original 2.5 heads would no longer be of use?

Jdm big port would probably be the best option then 2.0 sti but finding a decent set can be hard work these days shreksta

but that wouldnt work with my car would it?

i believe that i wouldnt be able to match up the cam triggers. on my 2.5 DBW they are 3 wire and the 2.0 are 2 wire. also the 2.0 have a L/H cam pulley trigger which mine does not have.

i know if syvecs was being used it wouldnt be an issue

Build a reliable nice to drive road car, stop chasing figures.
big power is big money and loses driveabilty.
if it's a road car do you need 500 plus bhp and difficult clutches and other associated issues?
bpr has the best idea for a fast road car I've seen for a long time.

kind of my point, chasing numbers or owning a drivable car.
a built 2.5 around 450 bhp is an enjoyable,drivable relatively reliable road weapon.
