Default Just need a tune! 56k die!

Figured id post some pictures of the setup ive been putting together. Stock d16y7 in a 97 civic dx vsm hb, 48/60 t3, old school fmic, dsm 1g bov, 450cc, safc2, vortech btm, and tried to meet my weight goal of under 1900lbs. Ive just been taking my time, using my girlfriends car in the snow instead of mine. Should be done by spring 08 goal of 180-190whp in a 1900-1800lb car.

the only problem with PVC is the toxic fumes it releases when it gets to hot try to use the black abs piping. There are other Capri guys running 19 pounds through PVC FMIC setups just fine

toxic fumes? everything gives off toxic fumes when heated, only your engine eats these ones

Im only using the pvc for a charge pipe basically from the bov at behind the headlight to the throttle body. Im more worried about the rubber joints smoking and giving off more fumes than the pvc. Why would using pvc create more of a chance for a boost leak than normal piping.?
