still need to get:
mcmaster vacuum manifold

all i need is the fuel delivery things and hondata and groundzero will be tuning it.
any comments, opinions, flames are more than welcome.

now all u need is a 52" aluminum wing. jk that will be an evil set up, although the tuning will either make u or break u i'm sure u be aight.

redboost10

haha, thanks man, ive heard they are fairly good hondata tuners so im not too worried
anyone else, please?

nhez

see we are blessed here in houston since autologic is here "stOOpid" can really make wonders with hondata, unfortunately i can't afford it right now. so i'm all diy.

redboost10

i know what you mean, all i need is the fuel delivery stuff and ill be on my way to get it tuned. luckily my b-day and x-mas is coming, haha

redboost10

i got one positive comment, come on, theres gotta be more. does my set up suck that bad? no negatives, no advice.

redboost10

should i do anything different or change anything

what do you mean? air-liquid ic? or water cooled turbo?

redboost10

what kind of numbers do you think i can get with lets say 10 psi?

Personally, I think you wasted a step by boring your stock sleeves and putting in new slugs (not to mention money too). REAL oversize pistons (on the lines of 83 or 84mm), and of course sleeves, might be a better option. Even if you couldn't afford it now, I would have saved the money you spent on those SRP's and machine work to put towards some displacement later. But I'm biased because i also have a turbo b16a2 and thats my plan I feel a stock block is capable of handling 9/10psi for while with good tuning. I'm only running 5psi right now cause I'm still learning how to tune my ems...I also see some cams in your future, would take advantage of that PnP job. Other than that looks good! -Mike

You have a pretty good setup there, I can't think of anything else you may need.

JDogg

just curious as to why you replaced the fuel lines... kinda overkill for your setup. the stock fuel lines can support way more than the 550cc injectors you have ever will...

Seems to me that you have spent enough money to warrant getting something better then a homemade boost controller.

My .02 with the $ you spent building the head and dropping in srp slugs I woudl have sleeved the motor and built better bottom end. I just dont understand why you would build the head before the block?

Or i mean why would you build it and then not have $ for hondata yet? Im not trying to flame just think you should prioritize things better .

Curious how you got 2400lbs? Is the car stripped? What did you do to drop 200 lbs off the stock car?

redboost10

i had nos in it before and melted a piston tahts the only reason its bored and my engine builder gave me those pistons for 300, the head was built right when i got the car about a year ago and i got all the head internals and the pnp job for like 600 so i couldnt pass that up. i was also thinking of a blitz id boost controller so if i have the money at the time then ill go with that other than a diy one. if i strip the whole rear of the car, spare, back seats, jack, the wood thing, it wieghs about 2420 and with me it wiehgs 2540.

I mean, Inject water into your intake stream.
Water & Alcohol/ Methanol mixture will drastically reduce your charge air temperature, not to mention the cylinder temps as well.
This will also enable you to run more timing, as well as more boost, with less chance of detonation.

Its an added bonus to intercooling, or in some cases, a replacement for intercooling.
But regardless, definitely a safe guard.
