Oh and, for the people who say open downpipe isn't that bad, you must be losing your hearing, it could be heard 2 blocks away!
</TD></TR></TABLE>
LOL? WTF are you talking about? 2blocks, that's all? You can hear mine from across town
. It sounds SICK. The BOV is nice, but can't be heard very well over a 3" open downpipe. 
My bro said mine actually sounds like a loud *** crotch rocket. haha. idk
Glad to see it's worked out well for ya. You're gonna LOVE IT. Nothing beats boost. Just wait till ya pull your first (relatively fast) car.....its an orgasmic feeling.
GL with the setup and make sure to post #'s!!!

Re: Setup finally done! first time boosting! (Chris99SI)
I'd be willing to guarantee some noticable gains by throwing a little pipe on that intake and moving it farther from the turbo...you've got space under the headlight. just my $0.02

Re: Setup finally done! first time boosting! (WhiteTegSE)
I've got a little footage to process...Blackack was a little hesitant to really give her since it was only his second day with the car back. He wouldn't even run with me!
Going to need a host for the vid(s) too...my schedule is a little busy but the vid(s) should be done by Tuesday?

Congrads!! I purchased a turbo xs MBC and did not experience any spiking at 9psi. U should give it a try just in case the spring does not hold up over time.

Re: Setup finally done! first time boosting! (95integraLS)
what kind of radiator and radioator fan are you sing? I'm using a CRX full size, half thin radiator with stock fan. The fan is too big and I cant run the filter pipe from the turbo because the fan is too big. I really dont have the money right now to buy an aftermarket fan, so I was wondering which one you were using.
PS: I also have a DA (LS/vtec turbo'd).
