It's been a year now since I first tasted boost for the first time. My civic still is running the same exact setup, and is peachy keen! Boost is an exhilarating feeling, and I love it a lot! But what I would like to do now, is use this opportunity to thank each and every person who had helped me get my car this far and running.

A big thanks to Conor aka b18bek for allowing me to spend a week at his place in Dallas and helping me install everything! Thanks for showing me around Dallas, letting me hang out with your buddies, going to Chaucers for Sushi, and playing mean pranks on your buddies when they were passed out drunk.

Another huge thanks to Brandon aka JDMH22HATCH for giving a big lending hand in getting my car boosted. We had awesome and fun times in Conor's garage, just bullshitting and talking about how Dallas hotties are soo much better than Oklahoma City babes.

Thanks to Stan aka Flamenco-T from http://www.Fast-Turbo.com for letting me stop by his shop, pick up my parts, chit chat, giving lots of advice, lending me an oil pan, and being patient with my late payment

Special Thanks to Rubin from "Trizone Motorsports" here in Oklahoma for fabbing up my downpipe, getting me the parts I needed, and educating me in many aspects about cars that I never knew when I first started getting interested into this hobby.

Thanks to Stoney at what was then "VSV Performance" for initially tuning my car and making my dream come true! Excellent all around guy, who answered all of my questions and got my car boosted making great power.

Huge Thanks to Tony Palo aka Tony1 for re-tuning my car, and getting all of my bugs worked out. He was always answering all of my questions, helping me in anyway he could possible, and providing me with exellent customer service. He took care of me the way each and every professional should.

Thanks to Felix aka espanol for getting my ecu chipped from hondata, and hangin on to it for me until I made it into Dallas, even though he no longer worked for VSV Performance he still delivered on his promise.

Thanks to Phillip aka project dc2 from http://www.Spoolinperformance.com for fabbing me up a charge pipe and got it delivered to me in an astonishing week! Talk about cheap and fast service!

Lastly! A very warm thankyou to Honda-Tech! Most of my knowledge comes from this valuable forum!

So here are pics of some of the guys who helped get my car this far.


Good ole Stan(Flamenco-T) who had his phone ringing every minute for orders!

Awesome man

I can't wait to get my b18b turbo'd neither. Boost seems to be very exciting

Did you run into any mechanical problems at all throughout the boosted year?

 

nice,

Brandon if a very nice guy.
Stoney is a good tuner.

Umm..only issues I had was a leaking oil pan because my oil pan gasket cracked(fixed that), my idle was very lumpy and my car would die from time to time due to the previous tune with Stoney but Tony1 retuned my car and fixed that, and lastly two of my axles went to ****. Other than that, nothing has went wrong since being boosted. I'd say I've been through the last 3/4 of the year without any problems.

 

Thanks a bunch Khoi for all the kind words. I was just glad to help be a part of your boost build-up As I stated before, you are always welcome down here in D-town buddy

 

Glad to see you aren't having any major problems...

I remember seeing pictures of all of your turbo parts in your room or something a while ago...

I was building my turbo kit around the same time but I've only been boosted now for about 8 months...

What are your future plans for the car?

I am not entirely sure. I graduate around this time next year, so we'll just have to see what will happen. I have plans of either picking up a brand new S2000 if they still make it next year or buying a used S2000 that i've seen that go as low as 20-22k with 30k miles and slapping some boost on it I do have plans to keep the civic and build the LS motor as well, but all of that has to be played by ear.
