My Rywire harness, ID1000 injectors,second wastegate, and finally my axles showed up.
It's been almost 2 months for the axles!!!

Can't speak highly enough for Ryan and the guys at Rywire, the quality and attention to detail on this harness is amazing. I needed something custom and he made exactly what i needed!!





AND a little teaser from Sheepey Inc. my custom sidewinder they are building me, with my Garrett Divided V-band collector!
Ships out today

I envy you. This might be my favorite build. Will be following your progress closely. keep it up!

random question... If a k24 swap kit was available, would you have gone that route or stuck with the f20? I heard bolt on power k24 seems to have a better power band but I'm not sure how they compare with a built engine and boost.

To be honest I would have stuck with the F22. I like having something different, both are great motors, i believe the K make more torque but are very similar.

Little update:
Motors in, brakes are in and bled. Car is at the shop to get the exhaust made, ic and piping made.

Car needs about 2" bigger flares.

Schweet! This sounds like a dream build for a lot of guys on this forum.

He will also be flaring the car even more to fit the new suspension setup. Lot's to come this week. Will be firing her up on Friday!

Front suspension:


Rear suspension:





Competition Clutch Stage 4 Rigid and Lightweight Flywheel:



Motors in, Aem Fuel Rail and Regulator, ID1000's:

It always amazes me that hondas get to run 10 mile long manifolds and not have issues, yet our BP's crack even a short tube mani with ease.

I think a Briggs-Stratton has better NHV than a BP. It's also why I've gotten in the habit of loctiting everything engine/drivetrain related.

Anyway, this build is lust worthy. The harness, manifold, control arms ... ball-errr.

Updates, exhaust and downpipe are almost done.
Exhaust is exiting right after the front tire, no muffler
