Project : 89 CX hatch B18A1 Turbo
 
So this car has had many engines and transformations, if u wanna see complete details on previous history feel free to head on over to my thread on my website.

http://www.sufi.cc/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=7

But the main progress updates are this.

I've had my B18 in for a while, now previously this year I had a boosted D16A6 although it was quite nice, it was not a good base and I wanted more. I purchsed my b18 swap for quite cheap, engine was out of a rear ender, with only 118,000kms on it. So now I decided to boost it.

Kit is as follows:

T3/T4 Turbonectics turbo
Tial wastegate @ 8psi
Spoolin performance log manifold
Big ebay IC
Custom AEM cold side charge piping
Caravan BOV
AEM wideband

Here are some pics :D

Gotta get another 2 inch U bend and ill be set, threw in the halfrad and crap today, gotta redo the intercooler mounts, they are just half ass put on for now. went and got all the bolts and such for that.

Intercooler is sagging on the right as the mount isnt on all the way yet. Im gonna line it up striaght, then slap on my lip and it should be nice and covered.

PICS!

Some ebay intercooler... friend bought one, they sent him one with a bar missing in it, so he got another for free and i got the new good one for cheapo :D

Power goals? Well its stock b18, so right now im aiming for 200-220ish to the wheels on about 8-10psi.

I have a spare block I am building as well.
