If I focused on just the engine bay, this build would be pretty much perfect. The interior and exterior modifications really don't float my boat. But as long as they make you happy, swell.

Well I guess I should have made a note about that body kit. It was on the car when I bought it and I'd put a Mugen kit on instead, if I just had the cash to do it. I figured I would put some cash towards the performance first and then change out that kit.
I installed the new Type-R shift boot a couple days ago and the Honda Emblem on the dash has been removed also. Lookin to get that cluster swapped out now. The white gauges stand out too much and the tach ONLY goes up to 8k

Very comprehensive engine build, but I'm confused...

As I was reading through the list of work and parts, I first thought:

"Damn, gonna be an all-motor screamer"

Then I saw: 9.0:1 compression pistons

So then I'm like

"Damn, gonna be a nasty, hi-revving turbo beast!"

Then I saw: DC 4-1 header

And that made me go:

"Huh?"



Can you explain?

Fantastic! That'll definitely clean up the cars appearance.

Lol here's the excuse for the shitty DC header. I got it and the downpipe for only 70 bucks. It's only on there temporarily until I go boosted. Didn't have the cash for a bigger exhaust system.
