Intake manifold: $60

Fuel tank with pump: $80

Fuel lines, main relay, and other odds and ends: $50

wiring harness: $40

Tallies up to $230.

You can do all this and save a buncha money. WHo knows, u might get a lot of stuff for pretty cheap too.

it is cheapper to buy wrecked EFI accord and do your own work.

thats very true alex. But i listed the parts cause i had to dig it outta the junkyard. BUt like u said, its much cheaper and easier to have a wrecked efi car and get the whole think outta it.

If I was to stick with an A20 instead of a swap, what would be more cost effective? Rebuit A20A1 with a fuel injection coversion or just drop in a rebuilt A20A3?

IF u wanna stick with the A20 u got two options,
1. Webber carb conversion
2. Efi conversion (Parts car highly recommended)

If you could get a wrecked LXI or a SEI like mentioned above for like 200 to 300 bux, i would say swap the whole motor (A20A3) and all other parts.

rebuilding an engine is not advisable if ur not gonna do any serious performance upgrades. I would say if ur gonna go full out performance or take it to the drag strip and race quite often, then rebuilding it is waiting for u

I think rebuilding ur motor costs around 600-900 bux depending on the person who does it.

I was planning on doing some performance stuff but wasn't sure which would be the better option. It's either gonna have a custom turbo setup on an FI A20 or a B-swap. I guess it'll just depend on which will give me more bang for my buck

efi is the way to go if u wanna keep up with the aftermarket goodies like FPR and AF gauges and turbos and stuff like that. But save up ur money right now, save up a lot of money. Sean is pretty close to going all out with his turbo kit so keep that in mind and u will be glad u waited.

i was going to say i have seen that done on some old fords and older jeeps, would be cool but too much money!
