^^^ Ever seen a Bi-turbo V6 (factory) Honda motor before? Me neither!

I think most of the motor is there but things like the turbos and manifolds are not included....

They say you only get 1/2 the motor. So im guess they removed the VTEC system.

I bet no ECU.

0% chance of ever getting that engine running....

It may not even have a crank, pistons or anything else.

agreed, it's meant to be a display item only for a museum or some wealthy dude's garage ornament.

Totally agreed. It would be awesome but it would cost more than the national debt of Spain to get it running in factory trim.

I wonder if a Judd swap would work though...

If the longblock is complete (e.g. all internals, cams, valves, etc), it would be a rather straightforward task to fabricate a FI system and splack on a motec.

The trick would be actually using it for any amount of time without any spare parts or documentation.
