Re:Joseph's intercooler.
You mean that flimsy hood latch bar? That was gone when he got rear ended in the parking lot. The radiator sits on the place racing crossmember. And its in there very secure. The next time he is up things will be taken care off.. Not to mention he will be running one of my manifolds by them and I will probably have a nice shinny new front mount for him. Once the bumper is on that intercooler doesn't move. It flows a ton of air and works great.. I'm really not sure why you guys have such a problem with it. He has practically no money into the car and it rips. I have seen some really bad/ghetto setups on here and they either don't work or the cars blow up in no time... He has had the turbo on the car for a few years now with no problems.

Re:Joseph's intercooler.
I know Sitar is pulling pieces of one of the #4 pistons out of his oil pan right now, or was last weekend. Whichever car he has the EMS hooked to, I forget. I think Crazy Joe's car is still holding together pretty well. I haven't paid much attention to Sitar on the jyturbo list recently.
Much respect and all that, but after reading "had to sandbag and run low 10's in my $3000 car so they wouldn't kick me off the track for not having all the required safety equipment, but I ran a 9.87 the last run of the evening" and "I broke even deeper into the 9's despite (insert big problem here) in my $3000 car" and "I only got 680 rwhp from my $3000 car because the slicks were spinning on the dyno rollers" a bunch of times I had to ignore the man or hate my Honda. I have to live my life, and I'd like to make it a happy one, you know.

Re:Joseph's intercooler.
Hypereutectic make better power NA than forged/plain cast. They resist heat transferrence due to composition a touch better, keep the power in the combustion chamber. Crazy how silicon levels and materials handling add up.
