Dang, I will keep in touch with you because I may either want to buy it or may know someone who is looking to buy a set as well.

Yeah Joe tunes my car on the dyno and at the track, I'm not sure of the plan of attack yet as far as tuning goes because I am probably more than a year away from being done.

Have some updates: I’ve been working on the car here and there just waiting on parts to show up. Almost every place you order stuff from is out a month or more on parts. Hell I ordered slicks from Summit and they are two months out, my Welds are 10 weeks out, my SpeedFactory rear brakes I ordered a month and a half ago are still out and who knows when they’ll arrive LOL.

We've been getting quoted lead times of 63 weeks (15 months) for a critical component we use where I work. 2 years ago we could get it in 3-6 weeks. Strange times, man....

All that hardware under there looks awesome.

That is freaking wild man, it's been a Non-stop job keeping track of parts and bugging people to figure out when they are going to ship stuff. My biggest issue with a lot of these companies is that for starters they take your money as soon as you purchase something with promises and as soon as the transaction is over come up with excuses of why you can't get it on time. Also a lot of these websites say IN STOCK which to me, means as soon as someone purchases a product you process payment, and prep the order to ship not wait a month and say you are waiting on vendors LOL.

I will say Summit is the only company I ordered a set of slicks from that has not charged me yet, they are waiting to charge me when the shipment goes out, which is how it should be.

Yeah, that rubs me wrong when they take your money first, and when they show in stock but it isn't true. Just last month I ordered a part for my wife's car from eBay (seller was a Kia dealership). After making the purchase they came back and said what I bought was out of stock, so I canceled my order and left negative feedback for false advertising. The response I got from them after leaving the negative feedback was "These are currently backorder with no eta, we do not have the time to go through the 100s of listings to cancel them as we are a dealership."

This is my second round of cleaning the trans case, it’s starting to look like brand new. Just need something small to get in the really good right spots.

Actually the first round was purple power and a pressure washer which basically got the grease off but didn't really make a dent. So I started to use a small wire brush and it was working but broke so I ended up going to Lowes and getting a couple small drill wire brush and those really worked well and made it look like the pictures.

On another part I tried glass bead blasting with a harbor freight gun and it did okay but you run through tons of glass bead and don't get that great of a result.

Well, count me out on K-series because I've never messed with one. For B-Series and 750WHP are you looking for advice on AWD or FWD, I'm also the wrong guy to ask for budget options as well LOL.

10k is the budget. And it's fwd only at first, before I start to do the awd setup. Build me a list. I don't know where to even find all the good Honda deals. I only know evo stuff lol.

I’m going to assume that because you said b or k series you don’t have the motor yet?

If that’s the case and you want 750whp, 10k won’t cut it honestly.

You can also start a thread in the Forced Induction section and there are guys with similar setups as what you are trying to put together. Some did more of a budget option on their builds and can give advice.
