    How does boosting make it a sleeper?
    Looks the same on the outside as a b-swap

    And why does everyone love sleepers?

    cause most ppl would never expect a turbo honda on the streets, not even most police

    and sleeper because no one wants to get defected an EPA'd unless u like to, not me, ive had my fair share of it now hahaha

    The shiny pipes will give t away more than a red valve cover though.
    Assuming you open the hood.

    the beauty of dark colored cars like ours, green an deep blue is that yellow stands out, so it contrasts really well

    i guess not everyone favors the d-series, but wheres the challenge in goin b-swap if everyones gone that route hahaha, but yeah what ever route u decide im sure it turn out well, engine swap or boost or both

    cant wait to see how things turn out
