Default An Introduction to RiceRocket

He very rarely posts on here, but maybe he'll see this and get some inspiration to.

Charles is his name. 99 Turbo Si is his game. Here's the video -
http://www.twistedinternet.com/~s4/videos/TurboSi.mpg

Keep in mind, this is with three people in the car. 9lbs of boost from a DRAG 3 kit. CEL is on due to test pipe. OBD2 but we're going Hondata soon I installed this kit a little over a year ago. But this car was not without it's own personal hell. On the way to have the kit installed, the B16a block injested a gallon or two of H20, and spit out a rod. Insurance to the rescue, and a freshly rebuilt (stock internals) GSR block was put in place, along with a Quaiffe diff, ACT clutch, and more. After a few months, that got tired, so a set of JE pistons and Eagle rods were installed. Has ran nearly flawlessly since, however it does run a hair lean. Current best time on 17's and full interior was 13.2@108mph. We suspect that even with less boost now, the addition of Nitto drag radials should get this car into the twelves. Stay tuned...

Looks like it to me man, sounds like it too. I just bought the HKS SSQ BOV, I am wondering how it mounts to the piping?

yes, that is the HKS SSQ BOV. It sounds even better at higher boost pressures
