This will be updated with the storyline of my progress
I bought this car in late 09, came with the turbo kit, back then i knew nothing about Hondas, or anything engine wise.
I ran into problems soon after, the headgasket blew and i ran it like that until the summer of '10. The head was warped pretty bad so all necessary machine work was done and i replaced the head gasket that summer.
After that it ran very badly, i took it to a local shop where it sat for 3 months, $1500 and a lot of new/replaced parts later i got it back. On the way home from the shop it started knocking. So from then on I vowed to only trust it all with my self and do the work myself.
Over the past year Ive been working, saving, learning, and accumulating the needed parts to rebuild it. As of now The engine is in the car, i need some small misc things to get here before i an break it in and get it tuned,
