bigger motor means it needs to breath. get at least a 2.25 inch piping all around. including exhaust. as for the swap theres too much to list. you need to ask a specific question.

ANY B series axel will work. It has to be from a B series motor. Most likely any integra axel will do.

save up for a k swap. seriously, my gsr swap seems so slow after a year. at first i was like, "****, this cars fast." now im like, "bhhhhh, i guess it's quick." i'm looking to spend about 5k on turbo and engine work to get my car back to "fast" save up a while longer and get a k swap. trust me.

OP any 94-01 Integra axles will work (excluding Type R, and also including Del Sol w/ B16 and 99-00 Civic Si) as long as you are using a 94 + intermediate shaft. If your car has ABS, make sure you get ABS axles as well.

True, but it's not ideal.

I already have my civic exhaust with my Type R swap... It's work for a short time, but I will change it during the winter because you lose performance.

Nice thread jack.

GSR Type R eh? Sick!! Does it have dual valve covers?

Which is it? GSR or Type R, they are different engines.

You will never hit 300-400 hp all motor with either of these, so yes you will nee to go FI.

Give the 5K to me if you want, I'll slap you, then use $1500 of that to do the same thing.
