Stripped down the camo hood and repainted it satin black to match the roof today. Also removed the Mugen replica lip and put the OEM lip back on.

Looked at every page. That block/tranny damage was the worst I have seen on a honda. But that is the most power I have ever seen out of a little turbo too.

I still have to give the engine a good cleaning. I didn't have anything at the house to clean the grime that's built up on the transmission and intake manifold. I'm going to try some degreaser Wednesday night after work. I'll also be replacing various hardware and grommets that are either missing or rusty.

It's not a prefect paint job. Just sprayed with regular spray paint. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out considering I finished it in three and a half days which included removing everything from the engine bay. Master cylinders, booster, hardlines, suspension, engine and transmission, etc.

Before.

After.

Well that header acctually looks pretty decent! Figured I would check on the car 2 see how it looked

Thanks, Kris. That is the nicest, used DC header I've ever seen. Thanks for the deal on it.

No updates as of now. I have about 5,500 miles on the engine now and it still runs great.

Thanks, i put a ton of work into this car and loved every min of my ownership of it, and the motor in this car was a freak... made a Good amount of n/a power and a ridicules amount of Turbo'd power for such a Frankenstein'd motor.

Cant wait to see if rob ends up turboing the new motor, i want to see what it makes power wise (hopefully he scores a vtec head and cam prior to boost)

Did some general maintenance this evening and fixed a couple rattles. I also purchased my old intercooler and charge piping from gsrauto98. I'll probably end up repainting the piping since it's a little beat-up from use. For those who never saw my previous setup...
