89SiPimpin's 90LS-T
Well I finally got around to getting my DA turbo'd. I'd run into some electrical problems with my EF with D16a6-T @ 11psi (turned me out indeed), and decided to strip it and sell the parts.
Before:
After: On its way off with its new Mexican owner minus suspension/powertrain/random interior panels, and driver seat
So on to my new project, 90 Integra LS 127k as i was told when i bought it, later confirmed through carfax to be over 210k, damn shady Asian car dealers:
I had more background to give, but noone really cares, and i'm sick of typing so just ask me questions and I'll answer lol. Enjoy:
2.5" Downpipe with 2.5" cutout, cut an flux welded by yours truly:
Volvo 740 intercooler that I cut down to about 8" tall, put metal plates on, and laid gangsta loads of JB weld on, holds 6psi good and costed about 35 bucks including materials so I cant complain:
Intercooler mounted, fits nicely where the ac condensor was, had to hack up the frame a bit, cus sacrificing structural integrity for the sake of a better fitting FMIC its what hot on tha streetz.
1st gen DSM bov, flange welded to the 2.5" ic piping but i was scared it would leak so i JB'd that byitch.
EG half radiator (fits great in DA with no hood modifications) Log manifold custom made by 90Blackcrx of RCAutoworks, turbo is Precision SC50 50 trim with .48/ar turbine side, Wastegate is the XSpower 83 dollar special with 5.63psi spring, i heard XSpower makes some of the flamest turbo ---- money can buy!!!:
Downpipe clears really well, came out better than i thought seeing as how all my cutting was done with an angle grinder and i've only been welding for like 3 weeks or so :
Naked shot:
And with the bumper on and hood closed, looks like this:
Overall came out really well and it pulls nice, but the stock clutch hate life, so thats gotta come out soon. I'd like to thank Bob @ RCAutoworks for hookin it up on the mani, Steve @ Stealthmode Performance for helpin brotha out with the oil fittings, Racing-Solutions for that good *** deal on charge piping kit, had enuff for my ic piping and downpipe, and Harbor Freight for making cheap ----.
