Make sure you have enough clearance with the waste-gate and the passenger shock tower. The engine torques towards the passenger shock tower.

 

Pics make it look closer than it really is, the collector/vband area is about 3" away from it, also I am making solid mounts for the engine/tranny so it isnt like it is gonna move

Congrats man everything looks sweet! Def. want to see some dyno sheets on here soon.

hehe, yea the BIG pics were a bit deceiving. Looks good now.

Solid mounts will work fine but I'd choose to build an engine damper over going through the trouble of fabricating solid mounts. The solid mounts might induce stress to the tranny and block mount points.

 

Nice setup but you can't leave us hanging like that! Post exterior pics!!!

 

When its done
The car will be very distinguishable
Like I said hopefully this weekend and it will be all done and I will have a full wright up on it so please be pacient

Looks great, cant wait to see the finished product.

 

great work but is there any other way to mount the turbo? It's gonna be sucking in hot radiator air and any little stones that make it through.

 

I will be using a half civic radiator and half civic ac condensor so I can make a cold air intake that will go to the front bumper beside the a/w radiator
Also I like the clean inline look as opposed to the oddball crooked look
-James

 

nice!

 

I hope the F20 lasts ya!
