alright i made some progress on the car its been cold out and we got a ton of snow cleared out the rest of the bay and front end also got my dash off so i can do a wire tuck and convert from auto to manual most likely going to send the car out to get the engine bay painted since its too cold out

+1 for Chicago tuners. Keep up the sexy work on the Integra. I still day dream about doing a K20 swap.
