looks fine, if you've got all the parts already doesnt really matter what we think right? Why are you switching from Crome to AEM?

got a very very good deal on it that i couldnt pass up, traded my crome ecu and 300 for it......, i can always sell it and go back to crome or get on hondata if i dont like it, and still come out on top

i havent ordered anything yet, i just decided on that bore last week, so that is mainly what i was looking for advice on.

i would go with 83mm to leave some room for future rebuilds.

I would also get bigger injectors, such as RC750 saturated, or Some PTE 880s. You will max out 660s quickly

I agree about the tighter bore if you haven't done it yet. Also, ditch the head stuff and invest in a ball bearing turbo, better use of the money IMO.

i already had the head stuff in the car, and that turbo, i sold my old mani, and im getting the top mount. mainly, im upgading the fuel system a little, and building the bottom end. thanks for the advice!

go smaller on the bore. i have a 81.5 mm bore on a ls-vtec and make plenty of power and alot of room if something happens. also i'm not that far off of my buddy that has a 83 or 84 mm bore just my .02

and get bigger injectors.

also i believe i got 375hp on 10-12lbs of boost (street tuned on crome)
