    Default **UPDATED** The Spoolin Project

    Im finally got my EK up and going and its running very well. I can't thank Charles Warren @ Main Stream Performance, Turbo Dave Fabrications, Scotty - Scott Brooks(Scttydb411 - www.digitalboxtuning.com) and Mr. KiDD enough for all the help they have given me in the past years with my projects and keeping my spirits up and keeping me on track through the bad luck i have had. Can't forget josh green for the help he has put in from the start as well, and also my wife for putting up with it. I get a lot of people asking me about it when i go to the varsity or just when hanging out on the weekends so i thought id post up, The car will go for a final tune later this month, we did a preliminary tune so i could take it and make sure everything is right before we tune it for 30-35 psi. Anyways, here is some updated pics. The intercooler is slightly crooked temporarily, lol.

    My wife and I had a son last year around this time so I haven't been out and about as much. I sold my hatch and have an Integra now. Hopeully, I'll have it ready to go down the track by the end of the summer. It won't be race spec like yours but I think it will be ok for a street car.

    dave has ragged some turbonetics turbos with no problems in the past. They seem to be a lot better than they used to, if it does, and i have problems, ill just switch i guess. Thanks for the comments.

    Hey Matt,
    What brand injectors did you use on your stock sleeve LS/VTEC motor? I remember you posting about how good your fuel mileage was?
    Thanks,
    Tony
