HMT V-8 STYLE!
 

Been a part of this board for a while now. I see it's mostly geared towards Honda so rarely post. But since I recently completed a new twinturbo layout I thought I'd share (after all it's still Home Made ;D )
Here's a 1.9kb vid

I ran the old set-up at close to 12#'s but I'm working on a newer fuel system with this one, so I have the gates set for 5#'s as of now. the plan is to run 15#'s and still keep the A/C!
I have a bad turbo cartridge on the pass. side I believe (notice the puff of smoke off when lifting from the throttle) so I'm going to ust upgrade to some t-3/t-4 hybrids in the near future (need the funds)
more pics can be seen on my homepage.

cool ---- man. we need sound though!

Re:HMT V-8 STYLE!
 

It has sound, you need WMP7 or have the Codec installed to hear sound on an older player. The sound is the best part!

I could hear it, especially that bov. Bet the neigbors luv you. Nuthin like gas guzzlein cubic inches. My next project is my Monte ls, I wanna turbo the 5.0, then build up a good bottom end 350 +10. That driveway must be rough.

LOL, gas guzzlin? Man I get the same 20-21 mpg that I got before I ever modded the car. Now if I keep my foot in the gas, sure it changes things. Not to mention, my Prelude gets just slightly better mileage but nowhere near the performance! Go figure?
Blow-off valve, where, on what--- my car? Nope not at the present time. I have one and even have a spot picked out rite where the discharge pipes "Y" together before the intercooler. I haven't took the time to weld it in since rite now, I still need to get the tune in order. But with the measly 5#'s of boost I'm running, I just don't see the point. What you're hearing are the wastegates and the turbos spoolin.
Lastly, the dimples were added after reading some info on air flow in a log style header. The dimples were added in between the primary ports (in pairs) to add turbulance (where the ports meet) and speed up scavenging. How much it helps, I don't know. But the engineering theory seemed sound when I read it, so I figured why not.

LOL, naah the folks over there are used to me doing things like that. I don't live where I work on my cars/toys. The "hood" is a lot more understanding. Now over here in my residential neck of the woods, they would probably raise an eye brow or two. Especially with it being like 11 in the afternoon and I'm making passses! (Notice the guy cutting the lawn? He never even looks twice, lol. He's seen me do it so much!)
