Re: first turbo project
i'm baffled that you have no fuel managment on 9 psi and it hasnt blown up, you need a damn turboedit basemap for those 450's, what do you mean your getting a basemap for d16 vtec injectors? they're all 240 cc injectors vtec or not, its good you havent been driving it, cuz its gonna blow up fast, you live in laport colorado? im down to race the n/a teg against your hmt setup....

Re: first turbo project
i live in laporte indiana. and i have some blue top 450's in now, ive only got an adjustable fuel pressure regulator. and dont worry when i go to the track i will turn the boost way the ---- up. i dont really need to right now ive beat all the people in my area on 9 pounds. so why kill the engine yet. im supposed to race some b16 hatch with spray this weekend if i get my new cluch in. and i think i stripped the splines on the end of my axel. but i havent gotten it out yet, thats my project for after school today.

Re: first turbo project
well it's doin real good on a daily driven 12 pounds..... i was woopin some ***. fastests d series in my town. m car strated overheating bad and i didnt notice for a little while..... got fucked and broke a coolant line. i fixed that and put water back in it was doin good. then i raced a b16 eg and won by 2 and a half cars. then i raced an LT1 trans am.... he got me of the launch and then i stayed at his back tire the whole race. then we stopped and white smoke was everywhere. its sprayin out from under the head and pourin out the back. i pulled over and looked and picked up a piece of my headgasket that was ontop of my motor mount. i drove the bitch home and its been sittin for a week because i cannot afford a new head gasket right now..... i need a ------ job

Eh, the LT1 Trans Am race is impressive, but the B16 EG isn't. I'm not here to bust though. Excellent work, the piping is definitly a classic so thumb-up on that. Wish I had some parts or something that I could help you get that think where it needs to be. However, get a job son. Buy ARPS from TT, new HG, and copperspray (because Jon rocks it). Overall, good work.
