wooow....slow down...if you want those questions answered you are gonna have to answer a few others first:

which h22?
which internals?
which turbo?
what boost?
what clutch?
what intercooler?
good tune?
gutted interior?
what tires?
what driver?

and many more.

also a cold air intake with a turbo? sounds pointless to me. especially if yer intercooled. why risk blowing pressurized water into yer engine to gain 3 hp? just get a bigger intercooler and be safe.

after motor and trans i hope u know u need a cable actuated linkage from an accord or prelude, aftermarket mounts,custom axles, and some wire harness modifications just to name a few... friends like urs that charge 1900 for a full h22 swap including labor give people like me more work to do after they cant finish the job...so as long as people like him are around, ill never go broke

lol and thats only the begining.. he needs to factor in that if he has a dx/cx he has those dinky brakes that wont cut it.. on top of that.. the extra weight needs to be supported by something more than stock shocks and springs.. whoops now we have a running car, but it spins 1st 2nd 3rd.. time to get a nice traction bar and a decent set of tires.. and by the time he gets to that point he cant even pay for the gas to get it on the street..

Heres some advice... take a deep breath, research different swaps for your price range, and make an INFORMED decision. These kind of swaps are very expensive so don't jump into anything unprepared cause you'll get screwed out of hard earned money.
