That site looked DEAD when I browsed it a while back. I'll have to check it out again.
Nice car, however... I'm sorry but I cannot stand the stretch/Hella Flush look. Some nice new rims that fit would look great on it! That's my personal taste, so please don't take it negativity.

As for the Hella flush stance, no offense taken ... between the V8 swap and rim setup I hear it alot. But every time someone tells me they dont like something I like it even more
The reason I keep it this style is because I love watching the faces on mustang and corvette drivers when they get spanked by a "riced" out Honda.Are you going to get your car dynoed? Id love to see the numbers

Yes the site does not get that much traffic, but thats because the swap is pretty rare. Hopefully more people will get interested

Its super easy. Just buy a bunch of turns and straights. I have maybe $100 into my hotside. I bought a Harbor Freight hobby welder to tack everything into place. Took it all to work and finished the welding on a Miller. The only thing that sucked...is there is literally no room for anything. Its all very tight fit.
This is my first manifold I have ever made, not saying its nice....because its not, but its functional.

Ebay...Almost everything was Ebay.
Got to start the tune last week and had problems with the PCM. It locked on us(98 PCM), so I had to get another. Possibly later this week now.

I love the turbo placement, cleans up the bay quite a bit compared to how I originally wanted to mount the turbo on my LS1 S2K. I planned to run "up & forward" turbo headers (similar to Stainless Work) and mount my turbo directly in front center of motor. Luckily Ive only made the driverside header so far, I might just toss it and start over. Dont trade your car for a C5 like your wanting to. If anything atleast get a C6 and throw a few thousand in to make the deal happen.
