del Sol thread v 2.0!
good morning or good evening together!
first of all i want to say "thanks" again to rare_eg2 for shipping the parts to me! and now here are a few pics. sorry only mobilephone quality!
I like the corner lights and the tow hook! They look really nice on samba green.
I also have amber side markers for the front but i dont know if i install them. i like how it looks like atm. Now there are only red integra recaros missing to fullfill my colour concept.

lol. my friend claimed to do 130mph in 4th in his si hatch, 92. said straight road "if anything, it was a slight uphill"
i asked him skeptically how long it took yadda yadda. then he cut short and said his d16 was making a funny noise.
all's good. turbo D now. </TD></TR></TABLE>
His speedo may have said 130
But based only off of gearing and standard tire size of 185-60-15 or something really close to oem and EX/si gearing shifting at 7200 you will have
1st - 35.3 mph
2nd - 60.5 mph
3rd - 91.1 mph
4th - 122.4 mph
5th - 148.7 mph

No.. I put a monster ***king radiator in there after I cut out the rad support and made a new one.. now there is no where for the aux to attach, and not enough room for the housing.

(2 x H22) + (2 x turbochargers) / 1 del Sol = 1 big radiator

Question:
What makes these mufflers "turbo" mufflers?
http://www.kteller.biz/product...D=123
Anyone had a magnaflow muffler before?
You think this will be pretty loud since it's straight through?
Are Vibrants made the same way?

Generally, a "turbo" muffler will be a straight through design, producing very little backpressure.. then of course there are the turbo/glasspack mufflers which are great for a 3-4hp drop right out of the box.
I have a 3" turbo Magnaflow, it is very very quiet at idle, low tones at part throttle, but very loud at WOT. Scares the children, loud. Best muffler for $150 I've ever bought lol..
