Observations: DA chassis have acres of underhood room. Go ED, then you are allowed to complain. ;) Pro Products are awesome. Their TBs look and work just like stock, only they are bigger, and affordable too. I've touched STR, BBK, Skank2, etc, TBs and really didn't like any of them but the Pro Products pieces are minty fresh. K-series make Joey sad.

Word I sold Chris the pro products tb I became a dealer with them a little bit ago. The throttle bodies for the price are bitchin. Has far has quality goes the only company that makes a better aftermarket tb is RPM imo due to ungodly amount of sizes he sells and they shiny. Either way all are machined correctly. |

Re: The 24 hour XENOCRON DA swap transformation - 56k, slower than Hotrex
Im the same way about help. I honestly really don't like anyone even close friends touching my car. And really on a swap install like that all it causes is confusion and parts being put on out of order, Then you spend more time taking things back off so other things will fit and that just wastes time.

40MPG??!! ::) i don't know chris, i've managed 37 in my 200whp d16, but to get mileage like that with 400 and run 10's is something else.

Re: The 24 hour XENOCRON DA swap transformation - 56k, slower than Hotrex
Ive hit 38mpg on 100% freeway trips in my CRX. It might not be in the 10's, but its 400whp.
It took awhile to find the A/F & timing sweet spot at cruise to get there, but this engine combo liked mid/high 15's and timing in the mid 40's. I could cruise in the mid/low 16's A/F fine, but the plugs glazed a little and my MPG actually droped a couple points. Also, there was about a 5mpg diff. between cruising at 70 vs 60. The slower the better. Like all this really matters though, at my current rate of around town rippers, I get low 20's MPG. >:D If there's an LS tranny in your build, you have a good chance at 40mpg. Especially if your in the mid 9's or higher C/R. |

Re: The 24 hour XENOCRON DA swap transformation - 56k, slower than Hotrex
That's an awsome feet to acomplish. It took me 2 whole days to swap entire front ends from one ef hatch to another. Body panels, rad support, motor, suspension and all. Pain in the ass was the wiring dpfi to mpfi, vtec and obd0 to obd1.
