You converted a 89 Si to MPFI? I always thought they came with it. :P

Any pics of the car itself?

Don't wanna post pics of the car... Last tuesday I came home and found it on the next street over with two guys chaining it up to a ford ranger... me and my boy chased them around town while I was on the phone with the police... after 20mins of not seeing any kinda po's (when usually I can't get away from them), one finally emerged out the shadows and got them... Kinda reminded me of jbwelder, how as soon as his car got turbo'd they stold it...

yea... i've seen a few mounted down there, but I don't see how that gets any air either unless u have a mugen kit or something... also, this turbo kit was built strictly for the purpose of me selling this car as a "Turbo CRX"... It cost me about $200 and took a good 2 days to put together...

well... i just got back from driving it ... jbweld didn't hold too well... the bov blew off the intercooler... and the turbo smokes at idle... but not while going... o well... I will probably just run it with no intercooler and use a little gay mx6 blow off valve I have...
