Default 89 civic SI build - eek

This one is mine, I picked her up yesterday for $1500. Drove with my dad and my buddy in our old shotty sierra 1500, but it made it and didnt break down few :P so 6 hours later and $40.00 worth of long distance charges, here's what i've got to work with.


b18b1 (stock)
greddy turbo mani
t25 adaptor plate
jdm eg6 half rad
stock ls tranny/ clutch/ flywheel.
chinese intercooler











after it came in, we cleaned her up, took the parts out, and looked over what we needed.

so right now im looking for ic piping, bov, couplers and clamps.
lmk what u got.

So yesterday I was bored and staring at this parts truck I had in my backyard, i noticed it had a nice exhaust on it with some decent looking bends




so 10mins with a grinder and the ---- came loose!

at that point I started cutting out the lenths and bends I needed.






this is the first pipe on the intake side, first time welding with an $80 princess auto mig.





this is what I did 2 days ago, I put the car back to stock



and then yesterday I did this.







so to tally it up, i need 6 couplers, 12 clams, a bov and a 5 bolt flange for a dp I made. *but if i can find one with the flange on, perfect
