Default Making progress on my turbo 'lude (for anyone who cares ;) )

Got the clutch, flywheel, quaife, and motor mounts all in and bolted back up yesterday. Today I went ahead and converted to OBD1.....first P13 I tried kept throwing a code 0 bad ecu, and we couldn't figure out what was wrong.....so we threw an H22 program in a hondata P28 and plugged that in and it worked fine.....turned out the P13 had a rom that my friend was messing with in there, and he had screwed it up so we got a stock P13 rom back in there, and everything is peachy Filled up all the fluids and such, so hopefully in the next couple of days I'll get it out and drive it a little (no front end on it or hood though, needs to go to bodyshop first)......I also need to go grab the hondata P72 from my friend rather then the P28 so I'll have my secondaries working.....
The SFP manifold ***** the turbo at a weird angle, so I'm hoping the compressor won't hit the motor mount in front....also, the wastegate dumptube looks like it'll be a pain in the a$$ to make, but everything else should be cake.....
Next up, bodyshop, VIS XGT carbon hood, WW bigmouth kit, and start making IC piping......I'm trying to get boostin by my birthday on the 17th

I had to grind a lot off the motor mount with my sfp manifold. I assume you will have to do the same.

I am in about the same boat as you. I put my motor in last night, only to see my GE intake manifold was hitting my brake lines. We are going to see about a work around today, but worst case is removing the master cylinder. Plugging the side port, and having it drilled and tapped from the bottom.

I have a P72, and i will not be running my secondaries, but it has the base map for my setup. My Fmax Downpipe is going to be a little short, anyone else have this problem?

Ugh, that is what I was afraid of I guess I should do that while the front end is still off.......

You can do it after you put the front end back on. It's not a big deal at all. Takes about 10 minutes with the angle grinder.
