Im not really sure what these Hondas need tho.

f this all goes well a B18b turbo may be in my future.
I'd say 450's would be a little big but give you room to grow

just be sure to get the turbo rebuilt while it's off....it's a real downer when you put everything together on the car only to find the turbo is FUBARd lol

Oh and not to mention it was free Along with it I get a std manifold with the adaptor plate. My friend got these for helping someone out, and he said I could have em. Nice!
nice! same exact turbo im running. for a little sucker, that thing is nice i love mine

450s will be perfect. thats what i run, and im using that same turbo, but at ~9psi, though if you wanted you could run some dsm 390's, but meh, better to have too much injector then not enough plus 450s are cheap

What kind of setup are you running for you fuel and tuning? Tuning Im think ive got the bases covered, but the fuel setup has me stumped just because I here so much differnt info on it. Ive got the pump down and larger injectors, is there anything else I should be thinking of? And whats with this missing link doo-dad. Ive been looking into it a little. Just trying learn as I go.

I'm glad I don't have to worry about it

if I did I have an idea I would love to do on the top, but also throughout the interior in the right places...and would also require different seats tho...i think it would like nice...

oh ya and just came back from bond...

i might add atleast an adjustable fpr and gauge just to top off the fuel set up...but maybe thats just me...easier to tune when u set it at the right pressure rather than having the tune do it all...

true, but for such a simple setup like he has planned, i think it would be kinda unnecesary..

ya i have a tendency to overkill a setup for the power its making or expected to make...
just seen too many cars lacking supporting mods to actually use the power they have or make the power they want with the parts they have

anyways, if a budget is the number one priority with the absolute bare minimum than not necessary, but might be worth it since it won't be that much more

also my mentality is while you are doing it why not do it all at once instead of now and later? i just don't like doing this twice is all or finding out later you should of just done it in the first place

i have a few regrets myself that i hope to change eventually but its alright in the meantime...

i know where your coming from Will, and i agree (in most cases) but then again, idk, i guess atleast with my setup, i didnt see it as somehting i needed, and continue to feel the same but then again, i guess its personal preferance. i guess it would make it easier on the tuner, but idk

speaking of making use of power, i need to really focus on getting some 15's that will clear my brakes.. i feel like such a waste having these radials just sitting in my garage its getting nice and cool out now, so i should be hitting up the track more hah

Still around and still rocking my semi-built d16z6. No tune yet.

But i decided to take it to sacramento race way today to see what times i can run with the setup. Best time of the day was 15.4s

d16z6, stage 2 camshaft (valve spring retainers), dohc zc pistons.

well ****** it's official....NO MORE HONDA

deal went relatively smoothly.

just need to pick up a set of steelies in order to get the maglites back(which I'll then be trading for some fat 5s on brand new toyo T1Rs ) and get his headunit out....rather than let me use it till I can meet up with him again the douche took the faceplate LOL....he's got my 400 wheels but, I can't have his 50 headunit to use in the interim?? other than that and needing to get a hardtop I'm very happy with it, took the canyons home

I'd agree with that mostly.....haven't been driven an MR or RR car so can't say what it best (IMO of course) yet
