Default What do you guys think of my setup?

Well...my future setup.

Current
'92 CX hatch
Skunk2 coil overs
13x8x22 M&H slicks on Bogart Drag On Flys

'00 GS-R motor
Place Racing rear solid engine mount
P28 ECU w/Skunk2 program
Skunk2 intake manifold
AEM cold air intake
Thermal R&D exhaust system w/test pipe

Next couple of months
LSD
Clutch
Flywheel

Extended wheel studs

Race header
Street header

Future
Wheels (steelies suck)
Shocks
Z10 traction bars
Strut bars

Replace blue interior with black
Sell Del Sol seats and get USDM Type R seats

Remove all dents from hatch
Black side moldings
Repaint new color

Carbon fiber:
Wing
Hood
Front lip
*Maybe fenders

Wings West RS:
Side skirts
Rear lip

And the grand finale:
TUURBO

And then I'm done for good with my hatch.

I'm pretty sure that before you're done you will have a lot more things to get then just that. You forgot all the fuel upgrades, and ignition upgrades for that turbo. Where are all the better interior parts?

The "TUURBO" is all inclusive of necessary parts

EDIT: I did forget about the interior though...

why buy a race & street header if you are going to be turbo`d sooner or later. That`s almost 1k towards your boost kit.

Yeah I thought about that.

1. Race header for the track
2. Street header for the street
3. Gotta have some NA fun before I go FI

I'm sure I wouldn't have much trouble reselling the race header and I'd give my sister my used header for her GS-R.

I'll be damned if I'm going to spend all this money on taking dings and scratches out, and painting it just to have some moron open his door and hit mine the day after. Better safe than sorry.

GOOD LUCK trying to "replace blue interior with black" not nearly as easy as it sounds... youd be better off just dying the dash and door panels, and rip out the carpet

Good for you. Post a reason next time.

So far my best time to date is a 13.8 on the stock steelies. Haven't run on the slicks yet
