hey...where in florida do you live? that car looks familiar. im in orlando.
i could help you with the swap if your close. i've done it a few times. takes maybe an hour. and you already have it port matched wich is the only hard part. its a noticable difference. never had it dyno tested. but people still argue the UIM from a FD to TII lower. and that has been dyno proven.

Pardon me? You're giving an opinion based soley on a 'butt dyno'. I've had experience dynoing and flowtesting almost every rendition of 13b and I can tell you with utmost certainty that you will gain no power increase by swapping to a turbo LIM and UIM on a 6 port motor if your VDI and 5th and 6th port actuators are in proper working order. Try being patronizing to someone else.

Philosophy class is down the hall, kid. Get going.
Listen Rem tec, if you got the LIM already port matched, you're really only a small part of the way there. You're going to have to worry about the throttle cable, vacuum rack, relocating the AFM, etc. It's really not worth it unless you aren't using a factory ECU. Chances are with an aftermarket computer you will gain the ability to ditch all the factory components standing in your way, and you can adjust your fuel maps to the changes your motor will see from a completely different breath. I only see you running into a heap of small problems along the way with the factory ECU, while never having the proper fuel map to get the full power out of the swap. Mine was a breeze since I wasn't using the factory computer anymore, which is why I did it. TII intake sitting around - Hey I own a die grinder. It was no work to make it happen.

...by the way the car is missing the air pump and acv also the car has a full racing beat exhaust,the six ports are wired open and the valve on the manifold is also wired open...
There's your problem. You're only making proper power above 5500rpm, EVERYTHING below that is suffering from the six ports and VDI being wired open. Before spending a bunch of money on mods, I suggest you FIX your car before spending a bunch on stuff that probably won't make it better.

It's all good man, if you focus on the details, I was saying it's not really worth it. I enjoyed doing it for the small amount of work it was, and I enjoyed the result. However I had different circumstances.
Relevant information for what he was looking for. That's typically the purpose of asking questions, yes?
If he wanted to hear that he should just go turbo, then that's something that any one of the 30,000 members here could tell him without a doubt will make more power. I'm sure he appreciates your input however. Maybe next time you won't be so shy?
