how much is this all costing you? All custom parts or are these parts manufactured?

I'm a fan!
I'd love to do a Special "K" NA after you misterI'd do it on a new body though - maybe a coupe! BTW: What trans are you using? Keep up the nice work!
Yeah I was contemplating on this also.. Just a k24/20 Frankenstein, I/H/E and Kpro would be fun enough for me.
They have a shop about an hour away from New orleans called Hybrid racing that specializes in K series swaps in Civics,integras and stuff.. I'm going to talk to them to see if they are up to the challenge once i finish pharm school.
I might come over this weekend, I just got back from dropping my manifold off and my friend's teg at Paul's tonight.
Not even man you have a damn good eye lol. Here is the same mani below with the tial wastegate flange welded on. I did not want mine welded on cuz of fitment questions I was not sure of so I got extra straight pipe and elbow that we will weld our self once we see how everything fits the damn Tial 44mm wastegate is big as hell.
Not sure how much and since I'm not doing most of the hard work I'll have to ask Paul but he's always willing to help out those in need for the most part.
Tell me about it bro haha.
Some parts are custom I have not done the math but it's not pretty and I don't want to even think about it haha.

I feel ya bro I'm using the K24 accord 5spd trans.
I got a few parts from Hybrid Racing William and David are great people and they make some of the best parts for the K series swappers.

dre illl show you mine if you show me yourssss :roy: lmao... loving the progress dude
Sure Mike very soon lol...
Well we made some progress yesterday installing the motor and manifold and other parts trying to see how everything fits before we do some fab work and more clean up of the engine bay before paint. We found out it's a little more work then it could be for instance the wastegate fitment is going to be tight but will work and will be welded on top of the manifold facing the turbo, the manifold fits well but the downpipe coming off of the turbo will touch the brake booster lines unless something is modified which will be done.
Unlike Civic's & Integra’s there is a lot of engine bay room but not so much in the back since the placement of K and J series motors are unusually more further back the those cars which is why these issues happen. 7th gen 4cyl radiator fits well in the car but it could be a little shorter but fits very snug under the hood. Catch can brackets, front engine mount and a few other things will be done in the next few days here are some pictures from last night.

Dre, looks like things are coming along really well.
Like the blue, by the way.
Oh yeah, CanAm 2011, I EXPECT you/the car to be in attendance!
