Been super busy over the holidays and today being my daughter's birthday. She turned 1 today.

Anyways, my super awesome wife got me the missing piece to my puzzle, a NRG QR. Everyone should have a wife like mine.

Went the extra step to make sure my horn works as well for those ******* drivers.


So without further ado:

 

So, its been quite a while since I have updated this. Only alittle bit of has changed.

Got the engine bay cleaned up quite a bit.

Sent the hood spacers and valve cover off to get powder coated to match J's Racing Color.

Picked up a Skunk2 Intake Manifold and bought a 70mm Skunk2 Throttle Body and Thermal Gaskets.

Just finished port matching the Intake Manifold to the TB. Hopefully this weekend they will go on.

Got a ferio wing coming this weekend and trying to track down a EG9 cluster.

Couple of pictures from then and now:

 

How's the H feel in there? Looks like it helps it move out pretty good. Question though, there's no filter on the stack, as well as an open hole on the pipe, yet you put a cap on the little nipple next to the hole?

 

There is a K&N that fits over the stack in the back seat.

I have yet to find a plug to fill the hole in the pipe yet. Been to Home Depot and Lowes and a few hardware stores. No grommets as of yet.

Also, its a F20b so, F2B.

Its awesome man. Itll spin 1/2nd with matting it to the floor. Fixing to put this on there:

 

Sweet man, cant wait to see that cover. Im thinking about J's racing color on my valve cover too.

 

This was my last one.

 

didn't you also have a red eg sedan?

 

Compliments of my cousin:





Wrecked it less then a mile from my home.

Then tried to bail out of the state without paying me for it.

Woke up to cops knocking on my door. My cousin who wrecked my sedan had secretly called down his side of the family from Maine to try an secretly take the EK Coupe he gave me in replacement of my Sedan while I was sleeping yesterday morning.

Cliffs:

- This past saturday he signed the title to me.
- Title was in my girls car locked up.
- Before she went to work, he asked for his copy AND my copy. She didnt know why they were locked up.
- I woke up to a cop knocking on my door asking for the key to the ek coupe.
- Completely unaware of the situation and how much of a piece of **** my cousin was, I told the cop I had a title post dating his title.
- Needless to say, he con'ed my girl out of my title for the car earlier that morning and made it disappear.
- I did not release the key until his mother transfered $2800 in cash as replacement value to the Sedan. Mind you, I kept the Sedan too.
- I released the car after explaining what a sneaky piece of **** he was to his side of the family.
- Later on in the evening, I realized, he left back for Maine with a MVR-4 form while the original title is being mailed to my house. For those of you who do not know, the MVR-4 is useless outside of NC. Oh well! Karma is a bitch.

 

Here you can see more of the damage:

 

Got some work done this past weekend.

Got the intake manifold port matched and cleaned up the castings on the runners.

Ended up with:

Skunk2 Intake Manifold
Skunk2 70mm Alpha TB
Skunk2 Thermal TB Gasket
GE Thermal IM Gasket

Had to get alittle creative with the fuel rail as I retained the stock setup. Ended up boring out the holes in the fuel rail so the mounting studs would go through.

Then had issues with the studs being too long and not threaded enough. Solved that issue with some creativity and "cool" points.

Aside from that, definitely tell a difference. Throttle response is 100% better (had a idle issue prior).

Also scored a spoiler. Not the real deal, but for $50, why not?

Still have alittle trimming and cleaning up to do.

Havent updated much yet, been busy.


Had some issues with the factory prelude alterantor fitting.

So, I read somewhere on the internet that a CD Accord F22 Alternator bracket was lighter then a Factory Prelude Bracket.

Picked one up at LKQ for $12. It is MUCH lighter then a H22. Also, without obliterating my frame rail, I had to switch alternators.

Ended up with a 3 rib 89-91 Civic.

I called a company, which will remain unnamed about their bracket. Guy told me I would have to buy his special bracket, QSD BS Kit, and all this trimming and ****.

**** that. Measured how much clearance I needed, went to AZ and found my alternator. Couple of hits on the frame rail, and my alternator fits. Its tighter than a virgins gash on clearance, but it works. $80 < $300. Went from 90amps to 60amps, oh well. Because turbo.

 

I like it, keep up the good work

 

Damn, beastly

 

Turbonetics Wastegate showed up. Matching turbo and wastegate ftw!



Decided to make the injector subharnesses clean up a bit.









New lighter F Series Alt Bracket






H22 Alternator fit like ****.




New one fits like a ******* beaut.







New turbing housing to clear the block. (Manifold was designed for a 4 bolt and not a 5 bolt.)



Difference:






Fitment pictures:








Money shot.

 

Few parts landed today.

My DIY 3 Bar Map Sensors (Thanks HiProfile for the thread) and my 2.5" 4 bolt to V Band Downpipe piece.






AN Fittings landed, but I am going to have to use a barb setup.

Peakboost Ramhorn is full of surprises.



Also got a package from my people in China.

Then plumbed the Boost Gauge. Changed it out from a compression fitting to a straight barb. Prefer rubber to the **** *** nylon.

So, I am a few days behind on posts.

Anyways, Here's the scoop;

Got the pan done. Had an excuse to go buy step drill bits.

Started out as an adapter fitting on the inside of the pan. Being that it would hit the windage tray, I shaved off all but the nut and JB welded the inside as well.

Final Result:

Pan was painted with 3M Professional Undercoating to help spot any leaks. I usually do this to all pans that I remove to help with finding leaks, if any.

Got my piping in from Greg at Go Autoworks.

Everything for the most part fit like a glove, with the exception of the 180* pipe on the hotside. Needs 1" removed, no biggie.

Bumper all trimmed up and piping mounted.
