I'll consider all applications, but if I get the vibe that you're not a true DA enthusiast, then good luck on the application.
dee a nine what is your defenition of a (as you said ) TRUE DA ENTHUSIAST i just wanna know.... i know i would consider my self a TRUE ENTHUSIAST but you might not for who knows what reason... ive put my car back together from scratch no inter no wires ect in my own backyard and the engine was built in my basement... for 2 years ive been workin on this da9 scraping by the skin of my teeth to pay bills and try and have a DD so i dont have to walk anymore or ask other for help knowing they dont want to offer a lending hand.
so please let use know what your def is for being a true da9 enthusiast....cuz pretty much you stated the applicate isnt in the squad unless YOU YOURSELF love the persons work or get a good vibe about em....i dont wanna sound like a ***** or nothing just feel kind offended by what you said

As for injectors im going to get those new bosch 1000cc injectors they are suppose to out flow any injectors in the 1000cc range..I dont want to go to big, this car is my DD
Ill be happy with 500whp for now probley go higher at the end of the year...goal is 10.50's so what ever it takes to get there
Yea that would Hulk Smash your pistons and valves! LoL
DD, hahaa your crazy, after all the crap I've been through I don't think I'd ever try to make my daily fast. I need to stop worrying about money and buy stuff! Just need cams, valvetrain and valves to put the motor together. Contemplating buying a Victor X and 76mm TB too. It would be a lot easier to put that big *** manifold on with the head off.

People are taking this squad **** a little to serious. If you love your car that's all that should matter. You shouldn't worry about what other people think.

Yeah lol, If you put the car together right there fine..Thats why I love my Da (honda's in genral) you can have a 400whp-11 sec car and still get 35mpg..DD is nothing I deliever pizza in my DA haha..My boss and his customers always joke and say I get the pizza's there faster than anyone in town..(Im well known for my car and its speed)

Ps: My dd is a 91 crx si turbo, its just sohc with a greddy kit, but it takes down mustangs/srt4s/sti's, all day long. LOL

Victor X would be nice, I have a skunk 2 port matched to my head..I think you should get your head together first though, dont get ahead of your self, I use to make that mistake when I first started building honda's

matt....do NOT use the victor x manifold unless you have a fully built head and high comp bottom end and plan on reving the car out to 10k. that manifold is meant for high comp/ high rev applications. right on their website it says they optimum operating range is like 7-10k rpms. the performer x would be much better as its like the the skunk2 and is for like 3or4-8k rpm.

just tryin to help ya out man

Yes it is for that but there is alot of people using them on there built turbo motors to..a couple of my friends making high hp use them over performer x...Its kinda like the skunk 2 pro 1s there ment for all motor but alot of people use them on boost

I prefer the skunk2 but if your set on victor x it will work, with a built head that is..

Definately. Did the guy say how many miles were on it? It's not often that you run across a B17, let alone one with low mileage. Good luck!

Everyones going K because they make good power and stay reliable..You can make 230-240 Allmotor with boltons and cams and still have a nice reliable DD.
