I wish your spoiler brackets were about 2" shorter, and the spoiler tilted forward.

Other that that, I actually kind of dig it.

I need to fabricate new brackets for the wing for it to be tilted forwarded, the replica RSX spoiler is very limited when it comes to adjustment and that's as forward as it goes =.=!

that sc61 should be good for 450 no problem

i've seen it done on around 20+ lbs, but on a motor with sleeves.

i wouldn't go over 14lbs on stock sleeves but maybe thats just me. 400whp would be the max a motor like that could handle.

I don't know that much about turbo set ups, and I've seen those braided steel lines a bunch of times, what exactly do they do?

those lines off the VC go to a breather box or catch can

for boosted motors that create a lot of crank case pressure. this allows them to release the oil vapors into a box/can which condense. Best is to have it drain back to the block/oil pan or else it will overflow unless you drain it constantly. but even then you'll have to keep adding oil.

typical set up is 2 lines going to the black of the block and 1,2,3 or 4 lines from the VC depending on setup.

You know you need one when your motor suffers from Blowby . . .

i hear there are a lot of contaminants that make there way into the catch can. so draining it into the oil pan could contaminate the oil. do you really have to keep adding oil? the stock system (pcv for the crank and the vc tube) both find there way into the im and get burned, not back into the crank. so i would think it would need oil just as much as the stock setup. but then again turbo motor tolerances are looser then stock so i suppose the high cylinder pressures could blow by the rings when its cold and force oil out of the block, witch would need to be replaced.

Well I am sorry to say guys that I made one less del Sol in the world last night. Was driving to meet a girl and was going to fast hit a bump and lost control and ended up in a ditch. I am going to try and save as many parts as I can but I doesnt look to good. Now for pics.


The Day I got it:

And After Last Night:







Never thought it could happen to me and now look at me. So everyone be careful driving and a girl is never worth your car!

And I am fine a couple bumps and cuts but no hospital visit.
