Re: My 90 crx turbo (now tuned and with videos)
I reworked the PCV system and no more oil leak from the valve cover. I plugged the PCV line on the manifold and ran my catch can to the black box. I need another or a multi input catch can to run the valve cover line to it but I just have it venting out right now.
Also installed a HKS air filter.
Also just for the hell of it I bumped it up to 12-13PSi and then turned it right back down. Huge difference in power but my A/F went bad and I'm still running stock head bolts.

Re: My 90 crx turbo (now tuned and with videos)
A little update on my poor car. I ran into some issues with the Z6 and got a bad case of the rod knock. Motors out of the car and on a engine stand. Since its Christmas I can't spare any cash so I decided to paint my car and later next month start rebuilding the motor.
So here she is. Shes dusty and the hood is really dirty. I left the hood gloss black (it was brand new with brand new paint) and left the sun roof gloss black. I sprayed the roof, hatch, door handles, gas lid, and door moldings all satin black. The body is painted satin Italian olive green.
3 days off work + $45 in supplies + being bored =
Still not done but all that's left is a few more coats on the front and back bumpers and to put it all back together.

Re: My 90 crx turbo (now tuned and with videos)
an afternoon aligning panels on there would make a huge difference.
i kinda liked the red wheels when the car was black, but now i think they need to be gunmetal
good stuff. that thing was saved from a horrible riced out life
