Just did this to mine! Took me 5 hours going really slow. Had to "stack" feeler gagues to get the thickness I wanted. Was a little worried but it runs so much smoother now so I think it's mission accomplished.

It's not the tensioner. It's the pcv valve. Squeeze the hose and the noise will go away.

Dude, I'll do it for you for like $300, That's a rip man. Adjusting the valves is pretty tough man, took me two tries to get mine down. Honda quoted me $205 for a valve adjustment, but i decided to just do it myself. Spark plugs are pretty simple.

I had a hollowed out Tsudo exhaust (just for the looks incase I got pulled over) So essentially a straight pipe, no cat or anything. These cars straight piped are ridiculious! I had skunk 2 headers and then straight back. Literally today I put on a Spec D exhaust because I got annoyed of the droning with the tsudo. That Spec D sounds really good!

I originally wanted a Tsudo. That's what I'm saying! For the price you pay, you can't beat it! It is pretty quiet with all the windows up. Only thing i don't like about my spec d is the size of it. Sounds pretty aggressive, people always look haha

Only mechanic I would trust working on my K is specialist shop like performance shop that do race engine builds and tuning ect. They usually know their shit with K's.
