Thabnks for the welcome guys. Triple sounds good. I was just trying to be modest LOL... hopefully it will be around 180-190 I am thinking. Also have a chipped p28 goin in also. The guy I got the motor from sold it seperately but I picked it up also since he spent a year trying different chips and this was the one he liked the best. The shop said it was good with that motor.
Here are a couple of pics of my old car for ya Mad7s. I will hopefully get my car back next weekend and put up some pics of it.

RE: My first honda
Insurance wasnt to bad for the supra. It was like 87 bucks a month where I lived. I do miss that car it railed like no other. I let my friend drive it once who opened it up more than I thought it could go he said it handled better than his dads C5 vette. We were doing sweepers at 80+ and it was just sticking with out any tire squeel. It needed a little more power 100 more would have been nice. I will say I am a newbie with hondas but the same principles apply in all cars. I might pick up a decal soon but havent decided yet I generally dont like and decals or stickers on my paint. As you can see from the pics of the sup I like to keep it clean... It did have a body kit but it wasnt overkill or anything. But a HCF decal might find its way to the rear quarter glass.

RE: My first honda
They are clear so you can put em on windows because we dont like stickers on the body of our cars either. This way if you wanna do it you just take a razor and shave it off without worry.

Whats up everyone.
Well still havent picked up my car due to engine swap gremlins. I did get to go drive it around for a little while and it rips it up pretty nicely. I also just got photos of it also. But it still needs a few parts to be finished such as a header and a intake. The shop didnt get the intake in time when I went to go look at it. so the picture has a rigged intake and the exhaust manifold needs to be cleaned up or replaced. I will post some vids later on when I get it and so you can hear how it sounds and see it in action. But here are the pics.
Also forgot to mention I picked up a five lug for it also as you can see in the pics. I tried resizing the images so hopefully it worked out ok.
Let me know what you guys think.
