alright well....car goes in the shop after the accident soon. probably wednesday or thursday. engine gets pulled so engine bay can be repainted and then car gets towed to my house. where the b16a2 will be swapped in. it will be Drag Gen 3 equipped with new pistons/rods and that is all. i think.

any suggestions on what i should do to prep the motor? j/w.
gutted my entire car today too....only driver seat and dashboard are left in the car.

ok....i dont know what parts you have already but I say get the new jgedelbrock intake mani with the jgedelbrock 65mm TB but if ya dont wanna get crazy then the turbo itself is really all you need :) what compression are ya gunna run? Oh yeah I hear iridium plugs are awesome with turbo cars!
