I was just browsing the fit forum and saw this in one of the for sale sections. It ended up going on Ebay and selling for 3 grand. I wish I had known about it damn clean and dirt cheap.

besides not having filters on the trumpets, it looks fine. the blacktop 20v swap is pretty straightforward.

wow guys stop.

This car is great and an awesome deal for $3k.

We know the swap ISN’T ghetto since:

- he used a distributor relocation instead of just pounding out the firewall
- he used rerouted the waterlines under the ITBs instead of over the headers
- It’s a blacktop instead of a silvertop
- That car IS low
