Looks awesome.That is a really clean solid turbo setup.When is the install going down?It's nice that non Honda cars are becoming a little more common on here now.

Looks good man. I really like the variety weve got going on HMT lately. I bet if you make a custom intake manifold youre gonna gain alot of power, those stock 'scort ones suck ***. What are your power goals?

Nice to see the domestics getting some more love on here.

But I have to say, ditch that front bumper, you're not an evo

Im from Houghton Mi, I didnt hit a single cone, the ones laying down are directional pointers. The bumper is a necessity, I dont have enough room to move the radiator or put in an IC in with the stocker, and I like the way it looks. My head has some mild porting and cleanup on it, so 250 at the wheels should be pretty easy, Id be thrilled with 300. I want 325 ft-lbs at the wheels @ 20 PSI.

Jeffescortlx, another member on here is running a slightly smaller turbo, stock 1 7/8" pipe, small front mount, non ported head, log manifold, and a simple fuel injector on off switch on a 550CC injector for enrichment and he made 212 at the wheels, and 262 lb-ft @ 17PSI, so I dont think 250(or even 275)hp, and 325ft-lbs would be too hard to pull off.
