Intercooler is an unknown quantity at this point

I know many are totally Honda only so I have questions. I figured maybe the water pump go Honda as well as the coolant but would using Gates or similar timing belt, belts, seals, be okay? Any particular parts I should use Honda only or go with store brands instead? Maybe things that are easily replaced with good warranty? (usually cheaper)


Thanks for any help!

you really want to stick with honda for important parts like this. aftermarket is usually garbage quality.
