This was my fun car in college in the early 2000s. I spent a lot of time tinkering with it and it has had a few different setups. It was a locally-competitive Street Mod autocross car, it’s been to a few track days, and I occasionally took it to the drag strip.

It had the B20 in NA form for most of my ownership and it ran strong: low 14 1/4 mile times, super torquey in the just-above-2000 lb car.

I installed the turbo setup and got it running back in like 2008. Then I got a job in another state, moved, and never had time to sort it out. It’s been stored indoors in a shop since then.

It runs and drives, I replaced the fuel pump with a new stock pump Aug 2024.

It’s currently running with the N/A fuel system components: 240cc injectors, stock pump, chipped PR3 ECU. It includes a few not-installed upgrades: DSM 450cc injectors, an adjustable fuel pressure regulator, and a walbro 255 pump. These things will likely need to be installed, then it will need to be tuned for the turbo.

I’m still pretty emotionally attached to it. If it doesn’t go for what I want with minimal nonsense, I’ll just keep it until I have time to sort it.

During the turbo install

 

Really nice car, admiring it, truly. Beginner here, hope I'm not disturbing so much, just a quick amateur question, what is this for? I know the theory for the air filter, but what's this smaller one for, when would you add it? Thank you!

 

Hey, thanks. That is the breather for the catch can. It’s venting from the crankcase
