Hey folks! I finally got most of my pictures gathered together and noticed something cool.
I've had my Integra for around 6 years now and it's always striking to look back at the past pictures.
So I threw some shots of the past, not so past, and present together just cause I'm bored And I think it's cool to see where we started, to where we go over time with our money pits.
It's like watching the old Batman Movies(like Batman Forever... ugh!) and thinking "What was I thinking!/WTF?!?!?!" lol

When I first got it:

*note the JB Weld or whatever on the radiator end tank...

I eventually built and went turbo. Now note that the AEM Intake is an integral part of my charge piping, and has a BOV welded to it... hehehe

After this I ended up with a Rev-Hard turbo Manifold and a Zex Nitrous kit. I'll try to find pics of it

Then I finally saw the light and picked up a good manifold/turbo.

However, you can see I still have the same damn AEM intake for charge piping and because of the 75 shot i took off, it now magically has some tape by the throttle body...

After some refinement and before I took it all out... We'll call this the "Mature" stage or "Nearing Retirement".


Then finally as it sits now as a quick mock-up before a Winter Coat of paint


And an outside shot(with the turbo B of course lol) Nothing's really changed there except the Milano's pinker, there are a lot of dings, and the wing has made it's way to my attic.

And my crappy blackberry camera in action... lol

 

580whp....it was fun Mike !!! Cant wait till the hatch gets its new setup !!

Isnt that drag pic from IFO '07 in Montgomery were you won 1st in the SFWD class? 10.21 @ 145 ish !!!


OH, and you got tp post the hatch and tell everyone why you put the K in the teg !! DUH

 

Integra vs my little D15 EF... hehe just screwing around on the dyno...

 

sweet

 

awesome power man

 

Lol thank you

I was really more noting how the transition was OEM -> Aftermarket -> back to OEM again with the more experience I gained.

 

Nice car and nice story. I agree eventually you realize to avoid alot of headaches OEM might be a good option lol.

 

Thank you sir!

And that's kinda what i was getting at. Eventually, you get sick of not being able to actually *drive* your car... lol. All the maintenance and headaches and worrying about something letting go, or not being setup correctly.

Now, with an OEM motor and a couple cheap boltons, i can run high 11's, low 12's all day everyday without worrying about a thing. And its a RR/auto-x setup, so I can still do all that fancy stuff with the best of them, like turn, and brake, and stuff

I Honda

I'm still building a big turbo K. But at least I have something really fun to do when I'm not busting knuckles.

 

SICK!!!! what kind of radiator is that? it's HUGE!

Its the biggest ebay EF radiator i could find. lol. Then i had the upper hose neck moved from the passenger side to the driver side for the K.

The mounts are pretty simple. I'll snap some shots tonight. Its just 1" box aluminum pieces with holes drilled in them on top, and a U bolts through 1" box with holes on the bottom attached to my F-R traction bar.
