If your not...I doubt it's worth it. Quit while your ahead. From my experience...turbo hondas can provide a plethora of headaches.

And if your really concerned about impressing others...buy a super charged Z06, Buick grand national, etc. Something different or exotic. </TD></TR></TABLE>

bonus points for using the word "plethora"

i would say go for it cuz you have like half of the parts already and it looks like ur gonna be making some sweet numbers with it...i was boosted and when i went back it was like my world ended, so that's why i'm in the middle of "re-boosting" my car. i'd say you've come this far, there's no turning back and i'm sure you'll be happy with the outcome.

I know what ductile iron is... the question is do you???

Ductile iron is one type of cast iron. It is composed of 96% iron and the rest is made up of carbon, silicone, manganese, sulfur, phosphorus, and magnesium.

Graphite is a characteristic of ductile iron in which it forms into a sherical shape. Thats why it can also be called nodular iron. Ductile iron is stronger and requires less support compared to other materials. It is better choice that concrete or even steel.

I don't get the point of you just telling me that the f22 doesn't have ductile iron sleeves. Do you have evidence that it isn't made up of that material or are you just saying it. Of course it wont be as strong as if I were to get sleeved but it will serve its purpose...
