Default First time build/Lots of questions

Hey Guys,
So I have this 95 Accord LX Sedan and it's got of 200k on it, so I figure it's had a good run but I wanna keep it so it's time for a rebuild. I got a good deal on a used vtec engine from a 97 accord and I'm gonna swap it with the original. You know the usual auto/manual swap, complete engine overhaul, all the normal stuff. Ok, here come the questions, first, has anyone used the gude intake manifold and is it any good? Second, does anyone know where I can get some stronger axles because I've already replaced the OEM ones 4 times? And last but not least, will I be able to keep my air conditioner when I install the turbo?

Never heard of anyone using a Gude IM on an F22B1 or B2 before. Maybe someone else can chime in.

If you are breaking axles on a stock F22B2 there is something else wrong with the drive train/suspention geometry, that or your buying cheap reman axles with poor quality CV joints. OEM Honda Accord/Prelude axles have been used in cars with over 400whp.

I have seen a few boosted CD5's with A/C, so it can be done.
