Got my ride back!
Some you may have read a THREAD I posted a while back.
Well after about 3 weeks I finally got my car back. Honda replaced my short block & all valves. The final bill was $5160.  Fortunately I only had to pay my deductible.  I was comtemplating selling it and getting a new VW Jetta 1.8T, but the immediate plans have changed. I forgot how much fun my Si is to drive. It handles great. Rides great. And now it runs better than ever. THough I can't really get on it until its broken in. Now I've got plans in the works for my engine monitoring system & moble multimedia system. Ought to be fun, fun, fun... Man I missed my baby!!!

Are Greddy turbos good though. They are considerably cheaper. Is that for a reason?

I told you... Call the guy at ITSTurbo.net and see what his kit will run you. T3/T4 would work real nice on that lil black Civic of yours..
