Re: 1990 Crx Hf Restore and Boost Build Tons of pics
sorry been awhile since updated ive been busy driving all over this lovely country for work from new york to Florida and all the way to cali i have a pic of the engine bay as it sits now.
Haven't turned it up yet its on 8 pounds on a very good street tune I had a few problems another distributor went out causing some detonation and blew the head gasket. Now a new distributor had the head port and polished, combustion chamber polished and all valves redone stock size.
Catch can was made custom to fit on the old charcoal canister spot with bracket slides in -10 lines off valve cover and 2 back of block fittings.
Also I did a gsr Cluster so i can go boost by gear and stop blowing these nittos to pieces.
The car pulls like a SOB my best kills so far is pulling hard on a few 600cc bikes my tuner believes the way it sits its roughly 325hp soon to come full blown dual hanger, ID1600cc injectors and a nice fuel line setup to run E85 im strongly thinking of also maybe a 50 shot of nitrous.

im starting the body work end this month Ive got almost all supplies all sand papers and metal glaze and everything that i need.
so soon I will have pictures of quarters being cut out and all of it being done..
I love the wheels ill be sending new pics with the new mickey's on it im going to be rolling and stretching the front and rear quarters so there is no rubbing issues on front or the rear with the 225s that's going on the front.
I love the gauge cluster its nice knowing and being able to see the car hitting 9K and seeing the speed o being 150 and yes Ive had it up there highest Ive had it in just over a quarter miles was 142mph spinning alot all the way there i hope the mickey Thompson's fix that issue

gauge cluster wasn't to bad a lot of the right ups I found I was having issues so I just did it my self with a volt ohm meter took prolly 5 hrs and they claim some things wouldn't work but I got them all to work except the low fuel light was all that wouldn't work.
