Default my car will never be done :(

Well, my max rev kit is finally on my car. After waiting over 2 months for REVHARd piping that fit like ****...I thought my car was ready to go....

Well I was installing my Fuel pressure gauge on the fuel filter and the SHITTY B&M bolt provide snapped in half inside my fuel filter....looks like i'm going to have to wait LONGER....i am just going to upgrade top a Aeromotive FPR and a inline filter. is it possible to retain my stock fuel rail w/ a Aeromotive FPR? I've seen it done...

Here are some pics of my car ALMOST done

Cars are slow, you supe them up, then they have problems.

Kind of like life sucks then you die.

Ahh yes, that sounds all to familiar. I blew my ZC last summer and said to myself, lets put a turbo on it, yes a turbo that will be good. I've spent 2500 so far and i've got about 2k to go. I'm so so so so sad. It NEVER costs what u think it will, and it will NEVER bo done when u think it will.

I have been racing my car since is was new. It is a 97 integra and it has 16K on the clock and only 1000 in the past 2 years. If you want power your driving time will suffer.
