    me and another guy did it. It took about a 3 weeks to do just because i mostly did it on the weekends cuz that's was the only time i could work on it. As far as running....IT PULLS LIKE A MUTHA NOW!!...It has way more power than my civic dx. The first cupple of times driving it i would burnout in first gear like it was nothing. I have to say it was worth it......I have to give smufguy some props for helping me out on some of the questions i had plus the directions on his web were easy to follow...THX!!

    Congrats on the conversion!

    I think that's one of the best performance upgrades someone can do to their carbed Accords

    I did the swap with a 88 lxi. Swap out the cam alsoto clean up the engine bay a little we took out the cruise ctrl. and the AC. That's just a cheap civic intake i did'nt do a true CAI cuz of my engine getting ready to be rebuilt for the turbo. i still might make one anyway just in case things are proloonged at the shop.

    when you did your intake did you have any problems from the spot coming from the valve cover. Like smoke coming through that filter you have on it.
