K, here's the serious:

Latest purchase is a 1998 DC2 Integra with a K20a2 swapped in already. I didn't know anything about K20's til I started reading up on k20a.org and realized they could make a good amount of power on completely stock longblocks.

I ended up buyin it, and all it needed/needs is a gas tank, a windshield put back on, and of course a turbo.

Towed it home, next to my SC300.

Needed the inteiror put back together as it had a cage in it, and it was taken out to cut the cage out (previous owner did it).

Here was the engine bay shot as I got it - wire tucked.

It came with a few nice things:

...and some more stuff.

Then the windshield went on! (not sure if i'm keeping the headlights yellow)

and on to the more important stuff.

As soon as I got it, I started buying turbo parts as the whole intention was to turbo it.

and that's the progress so far. I picked the car up about a month ago and plan on having it all tuned and making a hopeful 4-500 easy whp, (depending if the clutch slips or not), tuned by Shane, within two weeks if all goes well. =)

If I could low offset it and dump it, I would JUST so all the haters could hate, lol. :o but I can't... oil pan is already 2-3 inches from the ground.

That manifold made me JIMP. Glad to see you actually posted stuff now ;) Looks like it should be a fun car!

[LingLing]

Those K20's are a great platform. Looks like it'll be highway monster!

[turbotalon1g]

Nice, i'm shocked you didn't go with a 67, but I know these newer turbos make big power.

Good luck, saw the car yesterday looks great. (I wanted to take your turbo, lol and wheels)

[Kevin 1G Drummer]

Looks like my old wastegate will be going to good use! Too bad it's not being used on the SC though... haha

[At-Least-It's-An-Evo]

Nice, i'm shocked you didn't go with a 67

Yea, this turbo will make more than the bottom end or the tranny can handle (or the clutch), so it's ok. I'm trying to keep it "cheap" as we all know it might just get stolen in the end....

Put a skid plate on that oil pan. 2-3" of clearance is very scary in this state, almost a guaranteed problem waiting to happen.

Looks nice!
