Cleaning my Engine bay:








Im working on my MPFI swap and i was wondering if a PM8 Ecu would be okay to run cuz
thats the only MPFI Ecu i can find right now

 

that's one shiny red engine bay

 

lookin good keep us updated.

 

Thanks guys, and i'll keep you updated.

 

Yesterday it rained so instead of doing my motor i went to the junk yard.
I got a rear garnish, injectors and wires to do my MPFI.


Here's the rear garnish before and after:

 

nice! what did u clean the engine bay with?

 

nice up grade "the center garnish" its the lil things that make the biggest difference

 

pm 8 huh, that's from a crx hf, idk if it will work on your car, you'll probably run REALLY lean...

 

x2 and a 5500 rpm redline. look around for another ecu bro

 

Doing my MPFI as We Speak..





Also Got My Coilovers Today.

 

looking great!!!

 

I hope those aren't stock shocks...its going to ride like **** and blow them out

 

Done With The MPFI Swap ..

 

looks good!

 

not true i have the same set up on stock shocks and coilovers for a year now not all bouncy or anything. just make sure they are good shocks

 

Today I took the head and tranny off my a6 and made sure the pistons and clutch were still good. The guy I got it from was a Ricer and didn't know **** about motors,
i mean he thought there was a bad piston and there wasn't **** wrong with it LOL. Here's some pics the head and pressure plate, which were both in great shape.






Then I put everything back together and set it under my car for now till I install it tomorrow. But here are some pics of the a6 block for all you waiting to see it.

 

just double checking, you did use a new headgasket right?

 

Yup, pick up one from Shucks/O'reilly for 30 bones.

 

man im jelouse i wish i had time + money to do a simple si swap on my dx

 

Can't wait to do this to my CRX Hf... Just looking for a D16A6 at a decent price - you used to be able to pick them up around here for $150-$200 - now they are bringing $4-500 (or they have a rod sticking out the side).
