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.

Re: (raidacaipo)
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.

Re: b18c1 swap into ek!!!
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.
