Hey,

I am a member of solsociety. I've used this site for research many times but never really joined... yet. I was bored and decided I had enough time to make an account. Some of you might know me, or my car. 1994 Milano red del sol VTEC. It is my first car, and when I moved to college I decided to go big and boost since it stays home and isn't a daily driver anymore. Here are some pics of my progress I've done on it.

Pretty much at its first stages...



Then decided to make it a little cleaner...











Then came the turbo project...



Fully rebuilt airesearch T3/T4 60trim.



I know, I know, the manifold is a shitty ebay xspower manifold (braced), but it has held up very well with no problems.



Finally, here is where I currently am with her...






-second generation JDM B16a (USDM motor pretty much died)
-all stock body, EG lip
-airesearch turbo .63 a/r 60trim T3/T4, shitty manifold, SRE gunmetal intercooler piping 2.5" and 2", 6" intercooler, Greddy type-rs BOV, race clutch, DSM 450cc injectors, chipped stock USDM B16a3 ECU dyno tuned with crome pro. internally wastegated. Exhaust= shitty right now. 2.5" downpipe, part of the mid-pipe is stock size, don't ask it just sorta happened in the moment, and 2-1/4" 5zigen catback (mixed and matched sizes with no transitions aaah), thermoshield intake gasket, cometic HP headgasket, ARP headstuds, siliconeintakes hump hoses and t-clamps, NGK iridium IX plugs and wires... can't really think of anything else right now.

1st tune: got 215whp 160wtq @10psi, not too shabby, but could be more.



The pull is really smooth, there is a little dip at VTEC engagement, but you can't feel it when driving also nothing unfixable. I am going to do a second tune with some little upgrades pretty soon in the next couple of months.

The exhaust will be three inches, walbro 255lph feul pump, and lightweight flywheel go in before I want to do a second tune. Probably expecting a big torque increase from the future better airflow on the hot side.

I'll keep you updated on the second tune to see how big power increase I get.

Comment/Question/Props, whatever you want; just feedback would be appreciated.
