Re: Jeff saved my car.
everything is the same just the plugs are different. i dont remember there being an obd0 accord . i dont see how hard that swap could be. sheesh its plug and play and all you need to do is wire up vtack and vtec oil pressure. simple swap

Re: Jeff saved my car.
allz i paid to the shop was labor and parts, such as clutch, flywheel, and somthin else. only ish im having now is little gremlinz. one minute the windows work, next they dont. high beamz quit working, intermitant wipers, same thing. and i could be toatally wrong, the VTEC soliniond is not wired in yet, but the engine stutters a bit between 2g's and 3.4. at 3.5 it smooths out and feels like a mini VTEC kicks in. and then out of now where, the exhuast got way low and loud. i was worried but liked the new sound, and checked for leaks or breaks in the exhuast. and nothing, all tight and together. so anyways, Jeff is still wiring things up. so alot of these ish's may be fixed. just not enough umpf for me, so a turbo is the only way im going to be satisfied. but yes Jeff rocks!!!! hope you guys have a great meat and eat this weekend.

(or it was going to be a bitch to GET it to work) so :P kevin

Re: Jeff saved my car.
My friend paid $4k to have his 2001 Civic Ex turboed in 2001. It runs 6 PSI.... hehe my NA DOHC ZC could beat it. I would have accepted half that money to do it to his car now... you should hear his BOV it opens like 3 times when his AUTOMATIC transmission shifts as the BOV is way to big and doesnt have the pressure to keep it open for a single psssshhhhhh.
