Cool project none the less.

Have you thought about doing it to a non FWD platform?
i'd love to add an s2k to my collection but i can't afford it at this point in my life and theres no way i could let this civic go after all thats gone through it and into it. I'd lose my ass. So it would have to be something additional. I just can't afford one at the moment, i've got to many hobbys.

tonight's progress.

downpipe assembly:


Installed:


I just need to put the flexpipe in and get ahold of a good set of exhaust flanges to tie it into the existing exhaust. I'll give it a test run and make sure everything is in working order, then probably pull it all apart for some coatings.

Any suggestions on colors for the compressor housing?

Any reason why you didn't go with V bands?? I think you should color match the housing to the car.
