I had fitment issues with ebay parts which i knew would happen I just needed a cheap solution. I bought seals off ebay and they leaked BAD. EBAY is just not where you want to buy car parts unless its like from a wrecking yard. Spend the money do it right you will be glad you did and save money and down time in the long run.

I normally don't recommend them, but my friend, Russ, made it work.

if you don't do anything to fortify the bottom end who knows. Its just a matter of time.

You're boosting a H22, the cylinder walls are thinner than say, a b18b. Your motor will last as long as you don't skimp and buy garbage parts and have a good tune.
