well i will continue to look into ---- as i stated before. any other suggesions will be appreciated. if anybody has parts they are looking to get rid of lmk about them. i may get them. the parts im looking for the most is either a ls/gsr/itr tranny and shift linkage. as long as its not broken but has minimal or some grinding. it will be rebuilt too. lsd is a must.

haha...

"Are you tired of only having 7 pounds of boost on your $3000 turbo kit? Time to step up to bigtime power! Honda aluminum engine blocks can only handle up to 8 pounds of boost leaving you with a thirst for more power"

thats funny. all honda aluminum blocks cant hold more than 8 pounds. i hate that crap, just be honest about what your product does.

ive been thinkin though, why sleeve it really. its just gonna be a dd with boost. im not lookin to make giant numbers. even 300-400 on boost alone will suffice. if i wanna take my car to the track then ill take my trans am and run it. so no sleeve for me. just proabaly balance the bottom end, new srp pistons , golden eagle h beam connecting rods, rings of some brand, build up a b16 head with vitira valves(sp), gsr cams, adj. cam gears, chipped ecu, custom turbo kit and call it a day.
