Damn nice car.
At NOPI I saw a RSX-S with a FMIC and a nice turbo setup on it although it was much more geared for show. It made me wonder if anybody had boosted a K20 on the EM chassis. Now I see that it has been done, my turbo fund has now been renamed the K20+Turbo fund.

i can't believe that a revo short shifter. the shaft looks extremely tall, but maybe it's because the civic's console is lower that the dc5.
