OK, let me clear things up. I have been on this forum asking about things before but I have two cars. I have a build thread on #1 going and Im pretty bad at it. The thread is about building the ultimate commuter and #1 was supposed to be boosted. Im carrying that over to #2

#2 Is what this post is about, Im contemplating on using a D17 Engine from 05 Civic with Kpro, 05 HX transmission with the FD gears out of the Insight 5 speed in which I already own that part.
Here is a thread that describes the opposite, using civic FD in the insight. In the end of the thread, I asked these questions when I was motor shopping for #1
Short Gear Ratio / LSD 5 speed - Insight Central: Honda Insight Forum
I entered the Stock Civic HX next to Insight with smaller tires and 3.208 FD (I would like to go with a taller tire as well but these are the tires I have at the moment). The difference in RPM at the same speed isn't that great and there is a 700 pound weight drop, along with the turbo this to me is a workable set up. I just wanted to run it by this crowd.
