Default Who's Turbo'd Preludeengine Bay is This?

Some liar on a local ATL message board posted up this pic and says it's his car:



I know for a fact that it's not his, so please tell me who's car is it really?

God I cannot wait to bust his *** with this!

Anyone want the link to the thread where he packs in tons of lies about his old H22A CR-X (that he posts a pic of a B18C1 in a CR-X) along with more lies from him?

Thanks.

Here's that link:

http://www.siatlanta.com/cgi-bin/ult...c&f=4&t=000413

The liar's name is GalaxyBlack Lude on that forum.

While it might not be a big deal to any of you, it is to me.

I would want to know if some liar was trying to pass off pics of my car as his own - it's happened to me before and it really pissed me off.

I'm sure this one belongs to an H-T member because it's hosted by We-Todd-did.

Dont know the name of the owner, but did you ever call the shop that was supposedly responsible for the swap?

Here's what he posted as his set-up:

heres my specs..
Garret T04/T3 high output Turbocharger
Custom Tubular Header
Custom Downpipe
front mount intercooler
High Flow Bosche fuel pump
Vortech Fuel Management Unit
Greddy SuperS Blowoff valve
any other questions, and Dainel doesn't know me that well, 15 minutes, it's gonna take you alot longer than 15 mintues to get to me

--------------------
And:

oh, engine managment is hondata, but it's not really working out well, i'm think about AEMs System, the turbo seems to be realy screwing it up, having a lot of idle problems, come look my car, gonna be kinda tough since i drive my S15 to work now, but if you wanna come after work, i'll be more than happy to show you at my house
So what's wrong with this picture?

I'm no turbo wizard so please tell me how wrong he is, but some things do look ******* stupid.

Yeah the Vortech FMU with Hondata is retarded - I already called him on that one.

Garret T04/T3 high output Turbocharger
This is like saying, "I have high output spark plugs!" Someone who really has a turbo isn't going to call it "high output."

Custom Tubular Header
Nope. Those are some weld els. Tubular is TUBEular, meaning it actually uses pipe.

Vortech Fuel Management Unit
I see no FMU.

gonna be kinda tough since i drive my S15 to work now,
Translation: It's gonna be tough to have my dad drive me to work in his '97 240SX that I so desperately wish was mine and that it had an SR20DET motor in it. JDM RAWKS!!!!!11!!1!!!!!!!111

This guy obviously doesn't know what he's talking about. First He says tubular header. When I think tubular I think equal length manifolds like FF-GEOFF's or TRR. Then he says he has an FMU but after that says fuel management is with hondata. You don't need an FMU with hondata. Then lastly he says that he has the Greddy Super S Blowoff valve. Oblviously he is mixing up the Type S BOV with the Blitz SSBOV. What a retard.

Wellll...that's a box-stock F-Max setup with the piping chromed, nothing custom about it.

I don't see a Vortech FMU in the picture but I _do_ see the injectors for a MF-2 injector setup tucked up behind the coil. Funny he'd need that too...

Oh, as an aside, what year's his lude? This one's clearly a 4th gen if he claims that it's a new one.

Well I'm going to pile it on this ****** for good now.
Here's what I'll need from you guys because although I know he's lying and I see some of the stuff you guys see too, I cannot completely rip him a new ******* without a few key things from you all - the Prelude experts.

Who here has pictures of a real Drag II kit?

Who here has pictures of an F-Max kit for comparison to show that it's the same as the pic that bitch STOLE from someone?

Who wants to go over there and tell him from your personal experiences that he's full of ****? I mean he already hates me and thinks I'm just trying to **** with him, but if one of you Prelude experts goes over there and just rips him apart (or multiple people ) then he'll hopefully just die off the MB quietly.

So who has pics?

Lastly:

Here's the contradictory stuff I've got on his lame *** so far:

Hondata + missing link + Vortech FMU = bullshit
"Drag III" kit when it's obviously an F-Max - what exactly gives it away for sure? I saw you say the Delta Wastegate - what does the Drag Come with?

Anything else just so obvious and that can be proven with point blank pics to reduce him to nothing even more?

Thanks you guys - you guys are a riot.

Manifold. Drag manifolds are cast, while Fmax looks like Drop Shops.

You mean fmax's manifolds arent fully welded either !?
