those of you that may remember my last thread will know I've been working on this for about 3 years collecting parts as i have the money, shes finally getting very close car to being done! My car is a 1997 Civic EX coupe, has way too many miles on the body lol but not so much on the swap that will be going in. i got a killer deal on a built lsvtec( golden eagle sleeves, forged rods and pistons),and gsr head with a mild port job so i had to pick it up, had to make a 4 hour drive but it was worth it. here is a list of parts i have and whats going into my setup:
Skunk2 valvesprings and retainers and Pro1 cams
Edelbrock VictorX intake manifold
Competition Clutch stage 5 kit with a performance flywheel
Holset Hx35 turbo
Kteller 3 inch no cat or resonator back to a magnaflow muffler(no longer has the can in the first pic)
Aem wideband, autometer boost and oil pressure gauges
Hondata s300
heres a few pics of the parts, more will be added as i get stuff put back together and in the car, which is soon hopefully! waiting on a transmission(dont think my b16 transmission will work too well with the power i want lol) and a fuel pump(will be ordered soon!) anyway on to a few pics
The car hard at work on the job LOL

motor sitting in the garage(got a new valvecover to hook up my catchcan)

I had no idea you were doing a fully built turbo LS/Vtec. If I had to guess that car is going to haul. I want a ride when it's done man
