sweet looks good bro

[FasTech]

That is looking pretty good! How much boost are you gonna be running??? Is the motor built???

[d16_turbo]

you might want to weld over all the welds on the manifold and maybe it wont crack

[08turb@x]

the motor is all stock and 10psi. im ordering a kms block gurdle for it ill keep yall posted!!

[The BUCKY]

all ebay. wonder how it will run.

[Tree]

that clean.. it should be ok, i would just watch out on the mani!!

[08turb@x]

that clean.. it should be ok, i would just watch out on the mani!!
ya the mani kinds worries me but ill just weld over all the existing welds and + it looks cool :goodjob:

[JDM-95-Hatch]

good luck getting anything from kms, just had a 3 angle valve job and a full polishing job done there and it looked like **** had to have it redone somewhere else not to mention they lightened my flywheel and it was so out of balance when they finished we had to throw it away and buy a new one

turbod B16 in the crx should be quick as **** though but be careful on 10lbs those stock pistons and rings wont last no time if you dont tune it imediately,

[Krappy]

you should flip the wastegate the other way to where it dumps downward... and are you planning on using that ebay turbo?

[1SOL2NV]

wire tuck maybe ??? looks good so far ... jus dont go past 10 psi on the egay turbo if you want that thing to last a lil while .

[08turb@x]

if i flip the wastegate the other way there is no room for a dump tube and im not gonna dog the **** out of it without a good tune on crome and i hope the kms doesnt fuk my **** up ill be pissed and do you think that stock ls pistons will do better than the b16 ones?

[JDM-95-Hatch]

the ls pistons would be better but then you will have to hone the block for the 1.8 pistons at that point you might as well go ahead and at least do some forged 9.0 : 1 pistons and get some better rods, b16 rods are weak as ****

[K20Z1]

yellow valve cover!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!








bananas..

[pbstarr1]

Nice man, good luck with the build

[BX]

I'm thinking about buying the chip burned and data-log cable and building a bash tune just to be able to drive around town. I haven't driven it in 2 months and I'm getting sick of looking at it in my garage. All the stuff plus the chrome pro program will be $275.
Ether way I'm getting the data-log cable.

Just curious, what half-core radiator are you using & how do you have it mounted? Still using stock crossmember?

[DamnDisLaOsBoY]

Hrmm I see. Well how much longer until the IA crowd gets to see if the Ebay parts will make power and then how long it will last?

BTW, by a slim fan at O'Reilly. They carry fans that are thin & don't cost much, various sizes too.

[GSRteg®]

Pics man
