Shiat, I was boosted before you were even a member here. :P

The new toys are SRP and Crower rods, bought from ghettoturbo.

The motor, as of right now is 100% stock. Yes 15psi is a little too much for it, but I'm making up for the past year of not being boosted. :P

Timing covers are for pussies. I modifed it so the timing mark is still there, but nothing else. I ran my last Honda for 4 years with no timing cover and never had any problems.

15 psi stock block....not too sure if you're going to be boosted for long . Good thing you got some new goodies ready to go in.

I have a list of "sponsors" for this motor. I think I bought just about every part on this site.

Oil lines- Stealthmode of course.
Intercooler- Custom coach
Head- Onyx
Head bolts- mahcivic
Intake manifold- Hotsex (see sig)
Shortblock- I forget his name, but he doesn't post here anymore.
Turbo- Egay
Manifold- Egay (no I didn't pay for that pile of ----)
Distributor- Hotsex
Radiator-Ghetto-D
couplers- Stealthmode(some of them)


I'm sure there is more, but I can't think right now. I'm tired and ready for bed.

Nah, this isn't a daily driver anyways. I'll be lucky if I can take it out and beat on it once a week. I kinda wished I would have waited to put the new pistons and rods in, but I need other goodies before I tear it out again. I'm going for it.

Watch out for a "Motor For Sale" post coming soon. :P

I ran my stock D15 at 14psi untuned with an AFC and a blown head gasket daily for months and it lasted. I don't know how you guys blow so many motors. :P
