well, the turbo has been ordered, since i found a good deal on a brand new turbo at rogue works, http://www.rogueusa.com/

now just for it to get here, eventhough i cant put it on, it will be cool to look at for a lil while lol. i did line up a great summer job, so there shouldnt be to much of a money problems once i start working, wich should be in about 2 weeks, and i will beable to do co-op through school, so even more money, even before i graduate, woooo

nothing besides the turbo, i was going to finish the motor before i went on to the turbo and stuff, but it was too good of a deal, and prices were going to go up june 1. 575 shipped for a new t3/t4 is not bad. I already know exactly what I want/need for the turbo setup, but i am goning to finish the motor now, with arp headstuds, and a new timing belt. here is a question, i was going tom get an OEM timing belt from honda, but i saw a gates racing timing belt, has anyone heard of them, and are they good? in their info it says it is supposed to last longer, at tougher conditions

figured, as much as i dont want to get raped again, i guess i will go back to the honda dealer again.

well i orded the head studs today, so atleast i will be able to put the head on, only thing left for the engine is the timing belt, and then eveything goes together.

can wait to get the turbo, even though i cant put it on, i can leave it in my car, and when people ask "Yo, you got a turbo in there?" I can say yah man, right here lol
