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.
Skunk2 tensioner, turbo, PTE 6262, 1000cc injectors, Tial 44 w /a 13 lb spring, walbro-modded, HKS bov...
Then the manifold, which I'm having MAPerformance make, and it will be in production soon!
and this is the progress so far!
rigged up:
manifold tacked together on the jig:
manifold mock-mounted on car:
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.
but I can't... oil pan is already 2-3 inches from the ground.
