Machining costs own my setup the most. It's definately worth the money, maybe it's not OVERpriced, but it does cost alot.
Oh, maybe factory gaskets,belts,bearings is a good one. That ---- definately doesn't cost honda anything to make.

Well the most expensive thing Ill have bought by the time Im done is the I.C.And thats not that big of a deal considering it will be from custom coach.
So far I have:
1-Side mount Saab intercooler that Im selling=45 bucks
2-T3 turbo off a Saab=78 bucks
3-dsm 390cc injectors=35 bucks
4-Volvo BOV=12 bucks
5-Enough 2" aluminum piping frome volvos=24 bucks
Ive had my AFC for 4 years now and Ill be getting my manni from Stealth soon .By the time Im done Ill be right at $600 bucks(with down pipe & full 3" exhoust) .
Not bad huh?

---- honda genuine parts. my dealership can kiss my *** for the $40 they want me to pay for a thermostat. Did you know that those nuts on the ends of the valve stem are $5 each from the dealer and the thread is weird so you can't just go get it at a hardware store.
damn rafael, you robbed me on that bov if you only paid $12, but that's cool $27 isn't too much to donate to the rafael fund. where's my tracking number?

the rebuild kit for my IHI TE04H was like $260, that was a little more than i'd expected..
and the stupid gauge bezel thing that i got, had to get genuine autometer so it ended up being about $100, i've seen them for as low as $25 now.
