What island?

My old ef never had interior, ac, or radio either. I drove like that 4 hours every weekend for 2 years so I know how it is.

Since it's drag only, what do you want to build? a 800whp or a 500whp setup or something else

To make the block reliable, I would recommend sleeving the block. Have your friends sleeved a block before?
I would go hondata for management.
C16 for fuel, I don't know if u can get e85 on Maui

I would go with 11:1 cr assuming your always gonna be on race gas.

What turbo do you want to run?

Top end power is based upon the turbo used, not its static compression. 10 to 1 is fine

I mean what components would you use in the top end and I figured since the motor is going to be built right that I would go to full race for there turbo setup and the have a setup using the garret gt37r I having done my research yet but I'm may need to go with the 11:1 pistons and going that way for a fully built motor capable of 700whp im only spending 8400 shipped witch as you know isn't bad to where we live. Oh and I traded my hatch for my boys cherry crx si. But idk where to get a fuel pump from and injectors our what size line I would have to run. I just can't wait to start ordering the parts
