Rep Power: 236 Wow nice swap Kornsined! 
When I swing by the shop Tuesday I'll try to catch Henry and ask him how he did the AC lines and pass the info. Good job man and have fun with that swap.

Rep Power: 262 looks awesome...
those are some impressive numbers...
only thing is that you're wiring can be better tucked in the back, it will look cleaner if you use huge zipties and take them to the back.

Rep Power: 277 In case anyone missed the link in my sig
Swap dyno vs. my I/H/E no cat d17 dyno
My Swap vs. Cybernation SI hatch @ 10psi
As for what's next well just fixing up some smaller issues. I changed the power steering fluid last night because I found out the shop didn't use Honda power steering fluid (the fluid for honda cars is clear). So i hope that fixes that issue with the PS kicking out. Next summer will be getting my a/c lines done and a new windshield (you might notice the crack on the passenger side). Possibly touch up the paint next summer too. I got a insane amount of scratches from the car wash because the hand wand hose was covered in sand. So if you were to look at my paint job you'd see scratch marks EVERYWHERE.
Oh yeah and I need to get the Greddy washer bottle ASAP. Winter's around the corner
Right now I'm tight for cash so any further modding is on hold. Wedding and a honeymoon cruise makes my wallet light.
Oh yeah I almost forgot my Tein h-tech springs were installed yesterday. It's a very small drop (.7 front and .5 rear I think) but I'm sure they'll settle close to 1" all around. The ride is virtually the same as stock. In my short drive I never noticed a difference.

Rep Power: 277 Trust me it's not all fun. She's wanted to punch me out a few times. Especially when things with the swap went bad for 4 months.
JUST A FYI. When swapping get the conversion harness. For whatever reason we couldn't get it wired up properly for the KPRO to upload a calibration. Once the conversion harness arrived and was installed, everything worked. I tried to save money and ended up delaying my car's completion by 4 months including costing me extra money.

Let's just say no one was suprised when they heard we're engaged. I can't mod much either now cause you never know when the rugrats come along.
The rugrats thing made me laugh.

Rep Power: 277 up from the dead.....Update kinda...
found out i'm hitting 7psi max with those numbers. Depending how the winter goes I may be looking at bumping up the boost a couple of pounds and maybe a 3" downpipe in the summer. Greddy's DP is terribble. 2.33" ID with a 90 degree bend. not good for flow.
haha I gotta get a pic of the car with the winter tires on. now it looks sleeper with the stockers on.
