Recommend using a 3" exhaust for that turbo. Just use some NGK BKR7E plugs. He doesnt need a full ignition system or built motor, if its tuned right he can run 12-15psi on a stock block. _____________________________ Accord Mafia Member #001 (in reply to KevinAccord) Post #: 17

(always wondered that) No emissions crap to deal with, much better and easier ECU tuning options and software. A lot of it has to do with how OBD1 ECU''s are operated and setup from the factory and easily modified/manipulated.
