I don't think you can fully de-rice, it's part of who you are at this point. you got non-stainless pipes so your car was out for a month so you could replace them? if I was in that position my car would have taken my *** down to the nearest high temp black paint retailer and I would have hooked it up the hmt way.

thanks for the shoutout by the way, I'm sure the moral support and stickers I provided will add at least 50 if not more wheel horsepower to your rice rocket.

After you de-ricify your car and clean up the engine bay, it'll look pretty damned good. ::Thumbs up::

Rice is the new sleeper. You should put a unpainted body kit and some more stickers.

Nice work. Glad to see you got it running. How is is? Any problems?

Can't wait to see it after you clean it up.

Went to the dyno this morning, but had a few hiccups so I'll have to go back later this week. No biggie. Lets just say no boost. I got a mean *** exhaust leak between the turbo and mani, but I already fixed it tonight. This time, I used a gasket on both sides of my BMC adapter plate. Also, the ------- cotter pin busted off on my wastegate flapper and we couldn't get the remaing part out without pullin everything apart, so we welded a booger on the end of the flapper pin so that the arm doesn't fly off again. I'll prolly have some numbers posted up Monday night. I need a boost controller, its at 8psi now, but i want 10.

don't listen to the haters G', but that yellow Vtec stickers gotta go. Alteast you spelled vtec right, props for that and for having a clean looking install bet it worth the hard work and then some. lower the back to the same height as the front, cut off a coil or 2. keep the wing i think it looks good on that car. the rims look good 2. good job!
