i made 240whp on stock civic exhaust and cat, untuned, that was a straight up basemap on 11 psi :-\


Civic exhaust meaning Civic SI ( 99-00 ) exhaust or 92-95 civic exhaust, WAY different in size tiger.

what? 1 7/8 vs. 1 5/8, same cat and same style muffler, just different tip, not that big of a difference :-\

Anyone else notice that huge gap inbetween the downpipe flange and the exhaust housing?

have you tried taking off that filter? and it seems your wastegate is dumping basically right by the inlet of the turbo...

there is so many little things wrong with the setup. Cutting corners seems to do this pretty good to people.
