I went and picked up some parts off KG (optimoprime (http://www.elantraxd.com/forums/member.php?u=8266))
today and got to see his Beta II in his RD tiburon. For those who don't know, I swapped a Beta II into my LC accent. It was interesting comparing experiences. He snapped this pic with his phone, bear in mind both are cars look like crap because of all the salt and snow right now so....
There is also a pic of my engine bay back when it looked clean.

Yeah, without powersteering, a half sized radiator(now replaced with a full size), no battery (in the trunk), there is plenty of room.... for a turbo...lol

yea it was intresting to see how that beta2 was just snugged in to that LC. alot of work in there with the tranny swap too. not many guys pony up and do the whole thing.
if your worried about halfcore radiators then you can just get an aftermarket civic halfcore from koyo or someone. check it
