Thanks for all the replys guys. Worked hard on it, turned out very well.

Now for the answers to your questions... Everything ran under $4000. The kit was ordered for about $2700, $900 for the Greddy IC and Type-S BOV (only 3 people have the Greddy IC, on major back order), and about $900 on all Blitz electronics (SBC i-D, Power Meter, Fatt turbo timer). We have yet to take it to the track, we will be sure to tune it on the dyno before we do though.
Everything was ordered from Premier Autowerks in Seattle. They also have a 'carbon fiber guy' that can make almost anything in carbon fiber for you. The lip kit was a prototype and we were the first to have the liberty of purchasing one for the price of only the materials. They use a really really smooth clear coat from italy... its good quality carbon fiber work. The 4 pc. kit was only $800.

Keep the comments/questions coming!!

nice, car looks great
don't really like how the endtanks showup when the bumper is back on but i guess that's what we get for honda transversing their engines agn.
what is the fuel management that comes with the kit and how tuneable/adjustable is it? i have a greddy kit right now on my del sol so i know the install and fitment and quality and perfect. lookin to get a DC5 soon and i know i'll eventually end up boosted so i need to keep up with whats available for the type-s.

nice looking car man, but I think you picked the wrong turbo kit. Cybernations is a lot better, and you can boost 7-9 psi and put down about 280.

How do you know? Have you owned both? If you are going to make a comment like that, back it up with facts.

The kit comes with an "e-manage" system.

Its a Greddy intercooler, only 3 people have it so far and we were one of the first to receive one . The Greddy E-Manage came with the kit, and I had to change some of the settings that Greddy suggested. The only problem we have right now is that we're running too rich which is the same problem everyone else is having with the kit. We will do some more test and tuning soon to try to correct this problem.
Thanks for all the compliments, anyone else in here running a boosted RSX-S?? Curious to know how the others are running.
