You know to be honest I bought my car for the soul purpose of doing the TT swap...I loved the SC style, loved the fact of it being lexus quality.. I wanted something a lot different than the average guy. I also wanted something that would surprise everyone, guess what surprise is out of the bag....

Then I found this site, and realized I had the option of going NA-T. We do this alot on honda's and I'm hoping to be able to leverage some of that experience into this realm. I'm trying to do research on how much it's going to cost, so that I don't over extend myself financially, and fail to be able to complete the project.
Sorry if I'm bandwagonning? I'm dumping my 400whp civic hatch project, does that get me any bonus points

1) A $7000 SC3 will first need a engine overhaul ($1-2K)
2) The turbo setup process is NEVER as smooth as you anticipate ($500-1000)
3) Unless you have the hookup, dyno time = $$$$$$$ $$ $$$$!
