Thanks for the tip. Just another idea i am thinking about is not using the 2.0 motor now and putting both the intake and exaust manifolds onto the 2.7. I think i can easily remove the top mount intercooler in the process. Then il track down another motor or use my spare one to build with forged internals

you could just use the exhaust side and fit a front mount to use the orignal 2.7 inlet manifold

the turbo mounts on the manifold right where the N/A tb sits. otherwise i would because its half the work

what about turning the manifold round and moving the alternator?

Just off the top of my head i dont think there would be the room for ti between the motor and the strut tower

that could be a bit more of an issue, i'm not a fan of cutting the car up to get a mod in.

Neither am i in most cases. I think the best bet is to use the turbo intake manifold and ditch the factory intercooler it will just mean a bit longer intake pipe. I may even be able to mount the N/A TB on it.

OK when i get around to istalling my ecu. I cant decide what motor to go with. seen as i only want the 2.0l for a short time do u think it would work to just plug all the vacuum lines instead of plating or welding all the parts s if this will work i will have it running in no time and then can consentrate building the 2.7 with all the good parts

yeah as a temp measure u can just plug any unused lines etc...

I will weld everything up on the 2.7 when i put forged internals in but i want to just get it running with the 2.0 even if its not running that well

Once i get the msd i will bolt the motor in and wire it up, plug the vacuum not used then iltry and get it running N/A. Would any one have stock timing chart for the c20a ot the c20at. I think i will chuck a wrx turbo on it for a while because you can buy them for next to nothing. this shold get me mobile so i can build the new motor

ACURA LEGEND RACER IS RIGHT. ITMAY BE BETTER TO CONTACT THE GUY OUT IN AZ. I WILL BE SENDING MY CAR TO THEM SHORTLY FOR THE TURBO KIT TO BE INSTALLED. ONE OF THE GUYS SAID ON A STOKE MOTOR THEY GOT 300 HP. I SENDING IT THERE WITH AN LSD IN THE TRANS, METAL HEAD GASKETS, LIGHTER FLYWHEEL, AND CUSTOM HEAD STUDS,13 INCH ROTORS WITH 6 PIOSTON CALS. THE CAR THEY DID A WHILE AGO WAS ONLY RUNING 6 TO 8 POUND OF BOOST.THEY DO ALL THE TUNNING, ECU,TURBO KITAND DYNO THE CAR SO YOU NOW WHAT YOUR WORKING WITH.YOU CAN DO ANYTHING IF YOU HAVE THE MONEY,BUT THE TIME AND HEADACHE MY NOT BE WORTH IT.
