there is moer but i really cant think about it right now. i still have to change the piston rings and rear main seal before i go to get it tuned. i love the way the car is coming, its just coming a little slow. Well if you have any questions just ask. Im trying to run in the 11's on Drag radials. I just installed this full-race traction bar setup as well.

here are the pics that i have up

booja

looks good

electric_rex

thanks man im bustin my *** tryin to get is to be fast. , because we all know CRXs are slow

tek_civic

pump gas? boost psi?

electric_rex

18psi 93 octane. I dont think that this should be a problem at all, considering I made 370hp on a crappy ssac manifold with a t3t4 57 trim and a 2.5in dp last time.

I also bought a NX kit for this new setup.....only a 50 shot though

All these damn hoses and wires **** me off, maybe some time i will
fall into the wire tuck band wagon........ and then again mmaybe i will always be too lazy for that.

i hope you guys actually look up the tag number. lol its a tag off my friends wrecked car. i use it when i go out street racing. i just want to see the look on the theif that wants to look that number up. 1984 cutlass classic.....good luck. lol.

Blanket Jackson

Good luck with the setup.

Alex33

I was about to question you about posting pics of your tag but it would be more effective if you didn't tell everyone know it was off a wrecked car.

as much as i hate to say it i think i would of sleeved it with your goals. It's a nice buildup otherwise and i know stock sleeves can take it but just for reliabilities sake i think i would of.

..now i'm going to get reminded of all the b-series cars taking 600hp on stock sleeves.

22psicrx

I got the same set up but I have 720cc maxed at 19psi and duty cycle of 76%. I have never dynoed it before. But I think it runs about 450whp at 19 psi. Fun as heck. With 450 whp in a crx you will be king of the road.
I gonna buy some 1000cc but I have a another crx race car also white. good luck.

atec

Yes on pumpgas, sleeves are safer.

with J.Evans+ racefuel, stock will do

Nice rex put out a vid when 450 is acieved.

electric_rex

dont worry i guarantee that i will have more that one vid on street fire.

Or the look on your face when you get arrested for wearing false plates!

JDM_EM1

nice setup

electric_rex

well, i dont really have to worry about having my tag ran. i have a motor attached to the plate that flips it to my real one. its kinda like having a fake id. you can actually purchase the kit from autoloc. here is the link.

http://www.thehoffmangroup.com...PLATE

i rigged it to have a plate on the back and front.....maybe i will put a video on of it switching plates. i also have the tag light turn off during the switch in case someone is behind me.

i like it in white as well, i have a carbon fiber hood and the gunmetal rims really set off the hood well. only thing is... i always wanted to paint it black and have gold lensos or gram lights. we will see how things go though. i really dont want to have to pull the motor to repaint the bay.

What kind of heat wrap is that? (size) Where did you get it?? Thanks

electric_rex

i bought it off of ebay for like 25 bucks for 100 ft. you have to be careful that you get a wrap thick enough or the heat will not be contained within the manifold. this of course would make the wrap pointless. its proven that the wrap actually increases the chances of your manifold cracking. i think thats why jeff evans removed it from his mani. just a little piece of mind.

electric_rex

by the way, it was a bitch to wrap the manifold!

Bjorn20

damn man nice f'ing ls vtec setup.

but ya, my guess is the reason hes only doing 11's with that much ******* power is because its actually too much power. i bet hes spinning through gears more than hes doing anything. but eh, would not be a bad highway honda.

props on the beastly setup

electric_rex

thanks for the props guys. you dont really see alot of ramhorn manifolds on crx's because its such a tight fit and such a pain in my ***. my next problem is going to be mounting the aluminum radiator. the damn thing wont fit straight up and down, i think im gonna have to tilt it which i hate.

i will take pics to show you guys later tonight.

you guys ever seen the lsvtec turbo on streetfire? he had to tilt the radiator as well.

YOU CAN NEVER HAVE TOO MUCH POWA!
