b18a1 turbo build up
Its been a couple of weeks now and im all most done. I should be done next weekend. Ill post the pics of the engine completely done for you guys minus the turbo. im going to run N/a till the summer. im debating what turbo im going to use. This swap is going in a crx i picked up for 800$ with a ls already in it. So ill post some new pics next weekend.This car came with GSR leather seats, MOMO steering wheel, b18a1 swap, poly motor mounts, aem cold air intake, Corbeau retractable 3 point harness. pioneer head unit, 2 ten inch mtx subs. i took that out though, 2.5 coustom exhuast, which is for sale $100, also came with a high flow cat. i bought a new exhaust for it and a 4-1 header till i turbo it. and i kept my rota splitstreams off my old hatch. Crx's are fun cars to drive i think ill have some fun with my new car. let me know what you guys think

nice build, one thing though...
From the picture, it looks like the pistons are in backwards. The intake side of the pistons have the larger reliefs, and it appears they are in backwards.
Just a thought though
