Check it out..
I was hitting a max of 8.7 psi.....
Don't mind the slow shifting.
I need to find a better site to host this from....AOLs server is slow.
I didn't want to go too crazy since it was in a residential type area.
I'll put up some better movies soon with a more steady camera and everything and where I can let it loose a little more.

Gauges are:
upper left pillar: boost
lower left pillar: EGT
left bezel: Oil pressure
right bezel: fuel pressure (not tapped into my fuel system yet)

Would that be a check engine light I see? What's going on there?

Yes, that's a code 65 for the second oxygen sensor. I'm still trying to find a solution for that. I guess it'll be like that until I convert to OBDI when I get Hondata.

Damn you.....you finally got it working? My monster modem will take over the world....at 3K per second.

Are you running a boost controller now?

degradated

Yes, the Blitz SBC-iD....It's pretty nice. I like it.

Nice! Nothing like the tires breaking loose at the top of a gear on dry pavement

Hey, nice video....with code 65...did you try pulling the o2 sensor inside the car....thats what i did and it worked...

degradated

Didn't work for me...I have it up inside the cabin, with aluminum foil wrapped around it, and the light still stays on (reset the ECU of course)

I have an obd II GSR Turbo with no cat, an i solved the problem by removing the back-up fuse. The ECU resets itself each time i start the engine.
The only little problem i had is that i had to reconnect the radio somewhere else.

lets get to the most important thing: what bov is that ?

Love the user name.....

It's the Vortech BOV. You really can't hear it well in this video. It's pretty loud and good sounding.

HXMan

What size tires are you running?? Sounds like you peel out in first, second, and third!

And that is only 8.7 psi? Damn nice.

MiraiZ

Hmm...I'd think that meant he had bad traction...not good

My car can peel out in first, second, and first part of third at 7psi. I think most cars running at least 7psi do without slicks. So 8.7psi should be no problem at all.

Liltrix

Why not weld in a bung after the cat (if U have one) and place the second O2 there?

InfamousDX

lookin' good. i wish i could boost more than 5.5 psi... damn i need a new boost controller.

TurboSedan

Looks like fun, keep the vids comin'.

Etylorcen

Yeah on my heavy *** katana c5 17'' my tires break lose in 1st and 2nd sometimes 3rd...running on nitto 555's too.

HXMan

Yea, that is what I meant...bad traction. I am wondering what size tires he is using so I don't have quite the same problem.

hondalawnmower

so all in all, is the vortech bov louder or quieter than the greddy type s?

SiRkid

what wastegate?
