^Cool post! Lost of good info on DSM injectors. Good to know. :)

@motoxman: Sweet thanks!. i just wasnt sure if it was all of them or not. Yeah thats exactly why im just waiting hopefully a good deal around here pops up. if not i might just end up going with some precision injectors. Yeah i already have a resistor box laying around just in case, got it off a older accord lol

@MPR: Yeah i looked around for a lot of people's set ups, and it seemed to fit my goal nicely lol. early spool should be fun lol

@WORPeclipse: AWESOME! thanks for that info! did you have to use the corresponding injector pigtails from the Evo3? (im guessing so), Or did they just plug in with little modification like injectors off a eclipse etc.?

They are just like the eclipse one. Shave the little center tab off the inside.

Np for the info. It's easier if someone just posts it in one place from time to time instead of searchin 100 diff posts for all of it.

Oh thats pretty cool, nice to know! thanks again.

I've been looking to find what size drain line/oil feed i need that will bolt right up to the 15g. no luck yet..
I have a -10an drain line. I think i will try and drill new holes on the flange (not the turbo) and make it bolt up to the turbo, that should work right? since its just the drain line.

My hks flange pipe should be coming in tomorrow.

And about my exhaust.. I got a friend that has a welder, and he has installed his axelback and stuff himself, but never a whole exhaust..lol
Do you guys think we should give it a try?
Would i NEED to upgrade my exhaust just yet? or would that be able to wait untill i build my block?
Would it create too much back preassure? (im guessing so.. but wanna make sure.)
And what size should i go with? 2.25, 2.5? 3in?

I was originally going with a 2.5in. I've read a lot of set ups, and people with my HP goals usually go with the 2.5in.

Sorry about all the newbie quuestions..But im new to all this and would like to get it right the first time.. I wish money wasn't an issue here... :(

2.5" exhaust should be just fine for your application.

BudgtBuilt 02-03-2011 04:17 PM

Alright cool!
If i upgraded my exhaust after getting tunned, i would need a retune. Correct?
The downpipe i have is 2inches. Would i be able to just go to 2.5 after my cat? (the cat i have right now is 1.75inches... i would need a bigger cat im guessing..)

I honestly want my car to be as quiet as possible. Would a resonator be a good idea?

While you're building the car, I'd do the exhaust at the same time. You'll want at least a 2.5" down pipe off the turbo and same size cat. The whole exhaust system should remain 2.5" turbo to tail-pipe. Turbo's don't like back-pressure....lol

just a suggestion
 
I am also boosting a d16 right now for my first time. Your setup is very close to mine in some ways.... only thing thats different is my turbo is a t25 eclipse turbo and im running 3 in exhaust with no cat. Might i suggest a h series throttle body for your motor tho. d series are soo tiny and its an easy up grade to allow more flow of air into your engine.

For your clutch, I've had great success with exedy. fairly inexpensive but still decent. a basic low voltage a/f gauge really isn't good for much. If you're gonna do it, go wideband. The oil pressure gauge also doesn't have much need, but make sure you find an oil pressure restrictor for the feed line. Good luck, and have fun!

Hey guys, almost done with it! LOL its definitely a slow build right now.
But weather is getting warmer so it should start moving along.

And i painted my oil pan purple. Should be easy to find leaks before they even happen. HAHA
Attachment 4690

I need to grab a better looking oil pan tho, mine is pretty beat up.


Right now im working on my catch can set up, making it out of a spray can.
One hose from it goes to Valve cover, and another hose goes to the Black Box, Right?
And the catch can should be vented?

I saw a thread about it around here, so i'll probably ask questions there lol
