Not really much to dropping the tranny. It should be pretty straight foreward.
Lining it back up will be the hard part (atleast it was with a manual tranny). Just make sure you have an extra set of hands to help you rotate/shove/curse the damn thing.

yea it looks eaisy enough, there are a few things that are odd to me , there is a cable on the botem, of the tranny (I guess it is coming form the shifter in the car ) but you guys have no idea how much eaiser it is to work on hondas , after a few vr6 swaps and afew 1.8ts .. i was flabergasted buy how much less bulshit there is

yea , they do over do a lot of stuff , but my last dyno was 249wheel touqe @ 2400 rpm, with 15psi so it takes a beating well, got to love smal turbos for lots of touque 
.. though i do lose steam past 5500( never drops below 200wtqe)
