DSM 390cc injectors
NGK plugs and wires
Turboedit PM6 ecu tuned with wideband
2.5" mandrel exhaust

Suspension:
'00 Civic Si springs (1" lift)
Tokiko blue struts
Brand new front upper control arms
Brand new outer tie rod ends (already failed...thanks S & G)
Brand new lower ball joints
Brand new wheel bearings
15" Enkei wheels with 195/65/15 Yokahama Ice Grips

Brakes:
91 Civic EX front knuckles
ITR calipers
ITR 11" rotors
91 Civic EX 15/16" master cylinder new
91 Civic EX brakes booster new

ICE:
Pioneer CD player with IPOD input (STOLEN)

This car is ultra reliable. Been on several road trips. One up to the U.P. and Wisconsin. We just drove it from Michigan to Colorado and back (with 5 dudes) with no worries. Took a second trip from Michigan to Colorado and back again this summer. Oil is changed every 3000 miles with full synthetic. Spark plugs are changed every 3000.

Details of the turbo build are here:

Badass. 4wd wagon turbo is probably one of my favorite honda setups of all time. Looks like a blast to drive
