I've spiked 18psi before while trying to get my ching chong ebc working... that put the fear of God in me

I never could get the grounding to work right. I have it grounded at the thermostat with my ecu and there is still an offest between the jaw ground and the ecu ground, so there is a potential difference. I dunno, I never figured it out. My ------- car runs like **** though untuned. The plugs look perfect and there's no detonation.

It's getting body work and either rustoleum gloss white or rustoleum gloss black. The crx I'm doing in satin black, if I ever find a heart for it.

3" Magnaflow, full 3" exhaust the only other thing in the piping is a 3" gutted cat. The dsm bov's are on either side of the intercooler behind the bumper. One of these days when I get enough ***** to run a ton of boost I'll do the Dodge Garage mod on the bov's to allow them to hold more boost, but open more slowly (hence 2 of them).
I built the engine so that I would never have to crack it open again until 400+whp unless something broke.
Edit: For my crx I'm thinking of this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/JDM-S...spagenameZWDVW
280hp approx, awd should be fun to play with. Decent engine size, I don't really need a 2.5L. For a rear end probably a whole 240sx/subie subframe or something like that. The biggest issues I see coming are the wideass boxer engine fitting in the crx engine bay and making hybrid front axles and driveshaft and all that ----. I'm thinking crx cv ends on shortened (most likely) subie axles for the fronts.

Please don't molesterize that CRX
You could throw a junkyard D in it, tie up the odds and ends and then turn around and sell it for a profit so you can buy a real turbo for your civic.
