Total of $27,150 in parts listed above, and over 100 hours of labor at $70/hr. I don't really want to sell, but I have too many cars/projects and need something for a daily driver. I would ideally like to get half of what I have invested, but I am just feeling out if there is any interest.

I can scan the dyno sheet, but will need to bring it to work from home on Monday. I have not taken it to the track and don't have any 1/4 mile times. I can also take some more pictures over the weekend. The car has 3 coil packs which run off of a crank trigger system, all managed by the SDS engine management system. The engine from the Accord is a C27A4, ours an A1. The intake manifold doesn't have the Honda placard on it, maybe the reason it looks different.

1)thats not the OEM legend intake manifold- It is OEM in the aspect that Honda built it originally for this car. It has been modified internally (butterflies removed) and externally. I believe the valve was removed and aluminum was welded in and milled flat.
2)Why did you switch to the C27A4? I am guessing you are running an automatic, especially with that 23% HP loss before the wheels.- Not an A4, A1. 325 hp may be a little high, I'll go with 305. Manual Tranny.
3)No offense but some of the parts sell new for less than half of the prices you listed- I've been building the car since 2000, been complete for 2 years now. Prices have dropped on many items since. Yes, it does hurt to see I spent so much money, but you can't stop halfway through.
4)How much boost are you running, and why aren't you running it at higher power?- 8psi, nice and safe for a stock motor. Built motor should be able to handle 20psi, no more due to floating cylinders.
5)Could you post a video of the car?- sorry, no video as of yet.
6)hey, if you just want to sell the tubo off it hit me up!!! i doubt you would though...- not quite that easy, it all works as a team. Lots of modification to the entire engine bay; battery must be moved, radiator is modified to squeeze in the intake tube, crossmember must be modified, and oh yah, no a/c or cruise....who needs it.
6)i could build one myself for less than a grand..- you could try. There is so much more involved than you can imagine. I had an original budget of 5 grand, but like I said above, you can't stop halfway through.

I'll try to get some more pictures posted this weekend, have to give it a wash first though!!!

I added the dyno sheet to my yahoo photos page. Turns out it was 262hp at the wheels, not 252. The first image is a direct scan, couldn't get it so you can see the lines very well, so I did a negative scan and you can see it better.
