Re: Got a project for the homemade people
its gay. its a ------- huge waist of heat energy. plus the waste gate seems like it would lag alittle. plus. what if you hit a big puddle of water and just vacumed up a shitload of water mmm. mothing like presureized water in your intake.

Wow you need to go read up on how a turbo works. Headers increase power by allowing the motor to have better flow and exhaust scaveing. You need heat and mass flow rate to spin a turbine, heat exhangers aka intercoolers (which this kit is lacking) takes the heat out of the chargepipes.
This kit is all around a bad design and completely unnecessary for a Honda that has more than enough room under the hood.

It can crack, are you in pre school? do you not know common physics and properties of materials? I learned this ---- when I was in grade 6
Here try this, take an empty pop can and fill it with water, let it sit on your stove to the point where the water is boiling, meanwhile fill up a bucket of freezing cold water, when the pop can has steam coming out of the hole at a fast rate, pick it up (with tongs) and throw it in to the bucket of water, the can will compact on itself due to pressure and rapid contraction.
This is what your turbo tries to do as well, but since the metal is not as thin as a pop can, it cracks because the metal contracts much too fast and the particles break apart. and you just threw out a perfectly good manifold or turbo. youre a ------- fruit cake.
