Haven't gotten any "go fast" stuff yet, just acquiring Overtime money and saving. This car gets driven 50 miles everyday to work. Its been averaging 35 MPG too!!!!

Picked up a One Piece SiR spoiler with the long LED brake light, It is OEM. Yes its rattle canned UNTIL the car gets painted it will then be color matched how it was originally from the factory.

Felt like the transmission would like this:

Looking into have a blocked sleeved, where would you guys suggest having this done? I'm aware it's far from cheap.

Plan on switching turbos too...

I like benson sleeves.

Golden eagle normally has specials in Honda-tech for blocks. I think they are like $800 and you send them your block as a core then they send you one that's done.

I am biased against golden eagle....my block still sits (bought back in 09).

Only thing I have bad feelings about is that my #5 main is a little tight. I haven't taken it to a machine shop (I want to do it locally) to see if they can help me out. Only way I would go GE again....is if I sent my own core (I bought one of theirs).

That said....I would go ERL if I was to have another block done. They are about 40% more expensive....but they seem pretty thorough.

I found Darton MID sleeve kits for a pretty good price, but that excludes machine work/install.

I'll keep searching around.
