what throttle body are you using? Y8...

also thats an interesting way to plug in the IAT...
just so you know the OBD2 style IAT is the exact same as the OBD0 one...just a different plug and body style. i measured the resistances at different temperatures and they are the amount of error between the two is the same as between 2 OBD0 IATs. im just letting you know cause it might fit in there better than the old style.

 

im using the Z6 throtle body
the IAT is temporary there
i need to put it into my intake air flow to read appropiate...
and i am using that post where it is now to obtain a vacum and boost source for my BOV and boost gauge

 

its soo pretty it hurts my eyes to look at it

 

what headers are you using? just out of morbid curiosity... not as if they are at all impressive compared to the rest of the stuff in the pics :D . good build, man. very sexy stuff.

whatever they are i hope they wont be on there for too long

looks nice, how long will this one last? also how much will you be boosting. and when everyone says vafc hack thats just the vtec air fuel controller right not some ecu software.

i am using a TD05H (14B) turbo off a talon

 

Wow Im ver impressed. Thats good to see the D series getting some treatment, that they should be. So many people look past the D series and dont think twice about doing anything to it, good to still see them alive!

 

mmmmm, juicy

Im sure it was an econo build, so there is no need for extra work like that.

econo build?? with all the parts that he used and the work to the head etc? it doesnt cost alot to either clean it or hot tanked it .. and get the new seals u might need to replace .. it just time consuming (sorta) .. but thats just me

it was indeed hot tanked at the machine shop
its very clean... just has the shadows from where it leaked before
the engine was not abused , but has bad leak of oil from previous owner and it just soaked into the block material...
the head looks good because it got sandblasted
i was thinking of danblasting the block... but ran out of sand

 

kool kool .. just seem so damn clean from the inside .. and so kinda dirty from the outside ... but other than that looks dope

 

you already know what i think felix... but I dont think youll be pissing off this b-series guy... lol ; )

 

whas it worth the money how much power do you have now

.04" oversize is pretty big! Especially on stock sleeves... But nobody has ever really built up a D-series like they do B-series motors, so who knows what will happen when the boost hits the cylinders?

I just hope the overbore isn't too much for your setup, I'd really hate to see you blow that block.

Either way, it looks WAY nice bro! Major props!!! I can't wait to drop off my project Z6 block at the machine shop. Don't worry everyone, I'll be taking some before and after pics!

Good luck USDM 4G! Keep us informed when you boost it.
