- Golden Eagle block guard
- Eagle connecting rods (H-beam)
- JE 9:1 pistons with JE rings, block bored .020” over
- ARP main studs
- ARP head studs
- ARP rod bolts
- OEM water pump, oil pump, timing belt
- Cylinder head is all OEM, rebuilt with new valve seals 5k miles ago
- Magnecore sparkplug wires & MSD external coil
- USDM GSR transmission run only with Honda brand fluid
- Clutchmasters stage 3 clutch
- OEM flywheel
- Exhaust with catalytic converter and muffler for emissions
- axles (stock)
- shift linkage
- motor mounts
Turbo system:
- Garrett T3/T4 turbo
o .63 a/r exhaust
o 57 trim compressor
o Oil cooled
- All Aeroquip fittings (oil feed (-4) and return (-12) )
- All stainless fasteners
- Exhaust manifold bolts converted to studs
- Log style turbo manifold
o Port matched
o TIG-welded mild steel
o Symetrical wastegate exit
o Wastegate dumps to atmosphere (not piped into exhaust)
- In-car adjustable boost pressure (6psi and up)
- Resolution adjustable
-Varies how many psi 1 turn will add
- Mandrel bent charge piping, 2.25”
- Tube & fin intercooler measures 9” x 20” x 3”
o 2.5” outlet with re-welded 2.25” inlet
-Inlet relocated for charge pipe volume reduction
-“back door” setup

Tuning
- Uberdata ecu with OBD-II to OBD-I conversion harness
- 3 Chips
- Several different tunes including one to pass emissions
- Moates.net chip burner with usb cord
