Hmmm. I agree with him, I think that looks pretty damn good. Did you install that yourself. If you did, to you. I like the way you installed your V-AFC in your center console, look good.

what kind of power are you making to the wheels? I'm going turbo this week and I'm stuck between drag gen3 and rev hard stage 2. Any suggestions?

Not sure yet of what kinda power it's pushing now. I've only had it for a week. I'm taking the car to Atlanta sometime in the next couple of weeks to get it dynoed and tuned.

The turbo timer is made by Blitz. I saw Options had it on sale for $80.

dude, your steering wheel is on the wrong side! it should look like this!!




hehe

still, your install looks nice and clean, inside and out. good job! i'm actually thinking of moving my radio down to the small compartment behind the gearstick, and putting some meters there.. or just leaving the radio where it is and put the meters behind the gearstick.. what do y'all think? I might be removing the pillar alltogether, I'm sick of being an invitation to a race at night.. better to look stock.. no meters.. hehe

Billygunz- I don't know know of anywhere off the top of my head. The only place I know of in Atlanta is Engineered Performance right in your neck of the woods in Smyrna. I know of this place b/c that's where I got my car dynoed back when I was SC'd. They do pretty good work but you may want to shop around and get some other opinions.
I'll let you and any other ATL guys know when I'm going to go up there for the dyno/tuning session. Maybe we can all get together. My brother lives right there off of Cobb Pkwy, on Windy Ridge.

One more things guys, do ya'll think I should get rid of the pillar and the the in-dash gauge pod??? I was wondering if any of you have the dash gauge pod?

Looks great man. I can't wait to get mine done. (Saving for a $200,000 house right now though, turbo has to sit on the bedroom floor a little longer)

Let us know when you come up to ATL. I would like to check it out.

As far as your valve cover goes, powdercoating! Not just any powdercoating though. Translucent. I had mine doen translucent blue over a HIGHLY polished base. It looks great! Almost looks anodized with chrome lettering. I have a pic, but no way to host it. My photo hosting palce is only a gallery, so I can not get it to work here.

If you click here you can see a picture of it though.

Big James- I saw your car at NOPI at least I'm pretty sure it was your car. It was sitting over in the grass. My little brother has definately been drooling over your car since I showed him the pics of your 2.2 motor and the pic of your purging the NOS. He's got a 97 Accord and wants to swap the motor out.
I'll definately let you guys know when I'm heading up there.

Your car looks cool. I was wondering what type of fuel pump(s) are you using with your FMU?
