It won't be cheaper, lol I know cuz i'm running CP pistons and custom rods. Crankshaft you can have knife-edged. Some Acura internals are actually quite decent out of the 3.5L+ models. You'll obv have more custom-ability with aftermarket parts.

Yeah im thinking about the long run on things like if i build it for turbo and use a small one to start with just to get the system running and fine tuning from there. But later down the road up grade the turbo atleast i have all the necessary components to just up grade that. I rather be over built and push the turbo than push the internals with a good turbo.
