i think what i meant to say was that i'm a n00b to honda engine's.. i've rebuilt the odd 350 small block in my day, but that was a few years ago. as for bore and stroke, i never said i was going to do anything to it, and if you were to read some of my other threads you would realize that i know about most of the internals stuff, especially the pistons/rods business. as for sleeving the block, i've asked the question elsewhere and was told that i definitely didn't need to get it re-sleeved, as people are running 15 psi on stock gsr sleeves with no problems at all. for the fuel system i'm for sure getting new injector's/rails/fuel pump (that should have been a given) as well as the aem ems (bit more pricey than the hondata but it hooks right into the obd II configuration, and has way more options. as for all the extra's on the turbo, eg/ wastegate, bov, all that stuff.. well no sh*t!? it's not like i'm 12 years old. the only thing i'm still kind of in the dark about is the stuff to do with the heads, and what type of *aftermarket* turbo would work best on my *swap*. as for the stainless steel exhaust manifold, i've been told that they are much stronger than the cast iron manifold, and can handle high temperatures much better. just as a side note i have already put about 500 hours of *research* into this turbo/engine swap thing, so i mostly know what i'm doing.. oh and by the way duplox thanks for the help but right now you're speaking jibberish to me, give me a few hundred more hours of research and i'll know what you're talking about

and as for intercoolers.. know any good places to go to that's relatively close to west coast canada?
cheers
