Default Rsx Turbo Build!! *Beginning to End*

Wasup Guys just finished my build for now so i thought I would post up my finally finished project.
Here are the specs....

2002 Rsx Type S Purchased on 2/1/2013 with plans of daily driving it and not doing any performance upgrades. Well you know how that goes........ not very long after I was in the market for a turbo kit.
So I picked up this stuff.....
Hondata Kpro V3
72mm Turbonetics snail twinscroll 4in V-band.... Overkill? I know.. but makes big power.
Treadstone Intercooler
Tial Bov
Dual Precision 46mm
Sidewinder manifold jetcoated
1000cc Injector Dynamics
Aeromotive FPR
Custom Fuel Return setup
Quaife LSD
AEM Boost guage digital
BuddyClub N+ Spec Coilovers
Hoosier Drag Radials on Cragar wheels.

Yes motor is stock for now besides RBC Manifold upgrade. Is currently on 15psi and makes 424hp 289tq. Darin from DoubleDtuning in Orlando, FL tuned it for me. I am now Building a K20 block on the side and will be making other post for that build will be shooting for 600HP

Here are some Vids..
Dyno Pull :
Walk around:

Let the pics do the talking... Please feel free to post Positive comments.. This was my first K Build and I'm loving it.
