All your problems started with you not shutting the ---- up, waiting on us to help you order everything and getting so impatient. Rebuilding a 30k mile motor, impatience. 700 dollar engine swap, impatience. Getting a manifold custom made from miles away that did not make the creation of this kit easy, impatience. We could have had you a manifold made locally, with the flange specifically placed for your application for cheaper, but u couldnt wait. And now you're waiting even longer.
Also, never did i say i was a professional fabricator. My kit was the first kit i've ever done, and it went ok for me because i researched it, and plotted out how i wanted to reun everything over time before actually attempting to get down and dirty, after that it took me 3-4 days to get everything done. I'm not charging shop prices, all i wanted was the cost of the welder and its supplies (150-200 bucks and no that price definately has not gone up since it was harder than i thought) and then whatever extra parts money i needed. I dont have weekends to work on it cus i work weekends and u know that. I dont need to make excuses over the interweb, i'll talk to you in real life.
I run this.

Re: How Long Does it take.
FOR THE RECORD:
yes the motor bays are simalar, but the front motor mount DOES cause a huge problem in the accord were it does not in the civic, also the alt. is on the front of the accord VS. the alt on the rear of the civic im sure causes problems!
WOW that wasnt a coment towars you TOM, thanks i was saying that towards someone else!
so it seems that the guy doing the kit sure did list off a lot more parts that you didnt have, huh. i guess you didnt have eveything.
as far as my DP falling off:
1 it wasnt on the 1st run
2 it was because i had to modify my flange becasue i didnt make sure it was the right one B4 i spent all the time builing my DP and then welding it together, by then it was to late. i took care of it and havent had a problem since.
Good, im glad to hear that "those guys told you not to let me do your kit".
thats good to know...
"so if your gona try to come at me, get it right."
just so you know i wasnt "coming at you" i was defending Brandon and stating my opinion in regards to statments made.
TOM, you can do what every you want and say what every you want, no need to ask me if i care because i dont. I'm not gonna sit here and "run my mouth talking ---- because im not an E-Thug! sorry. please do continue your thread, i'll leave you be.

Re: How Long Does it take.
Well DAN, the only reason they said that was cause i got laid off and B would do my kit cheaper than you cause i dont have that much money, but it was my decicion to go with B cause i trust him and jamie flaked out on me, and i thought i got all the parts but i guess i was wrong, as for your DP i had no idea that happened, that sucks, and i sure it is working fine now, and as for all this, this stupid thread, i just wanted to know how long it would take, thats all, it got taken way out of context and started a hole lot of bullshit, i wish i never asked, but we talked about it, im not stressin on the car, ---- for me right now sucks, i got mad, did something stupid, and said stupid ----, im only human, sorry you got involved, thanks for the help, when the cars done this will all be forgoten.
