Well, i never thought i would be another "noob" lol.
I have been here many times but just never cared to sign up.

Finally, I changed my mind. I'm over at turboD16 and H-T for a few years now, but too much drama has been going on there. Time for a change.

So to introudce myself i guess, I'm Pete, 20 years old, in school and of course love cars.

My cars:
99 Civic EX
Had a greddy kit for it, but never got a chance to install it. Decided to go with bigger and better items. While in that phase, i got a chance to sell my car and get a
00 Integra GS-R

Current setup:
Precision SC-61
8" JRC FMIC
Precision 880cc injectors
Lovefab shorty log manifold (old school one)
Tial 38mm wg
Hks SSQ Bov
2.5 dp
3" Thermal exhaust
profec B spec II boost controller
AEM FPR
STR fuel rail

I think that's all for now, i'll add more once i remember.

I have been boosted for about 4 month now and i love it with the exception of the problems that i still have lol.

I love the ideas on this board and hope to become a active memeber here.

I did not launch at all
I was still having problems.
It was week after my install, lol

RNPoo7 01-26-2005 02:36 PM

Re:New here

90turbohatch 01-26-2005 02:39 PM

Re:New here

lol, it sure doesn't, hence my 1/4 times. I'm about to start looking for some clutches though. Even though i really want to get some internals, but i guess no need if stock clutch.

what car did you race in that video?

RNPoo7 01-26-2005 04:57 PM

Re:New here
 
Lexus , i wanna say 430 or something like that i forgot.

I have a video of the 100.98 trap but i forgot my camera at home, it was against a stang 5.0. You can see how bad i was gaining up on him when i hit boost.

At that time, i was also exhaust leaking like a bitch. I wasn't hitting booost till 5500-6000 rpms.

Very nice list of parts. Sounds alot like Hotrexs setup(or soon to be setup).

Ever thought about getting a better suited manifold? I would think the manifold would be the oddball in that setup. ???

Welcome to the site anyways.

lately i have been thinking about getting something else, but not too expesnive. I'm broke as hell.

I would also need to refab my down pipe if i get a new manifold. How much hp do you think i can get with this manifold?

I'm sure that manifold will support plenty of power, but with the size of the turbo you're running and the slugish lag, a "tubular" manifold with a better scavenge design will net you a better spool time. You need all you an get to spool that big ass snail. ;)

I don't hate Honda's mang, not at all there are a lot of fast Honda's and as i said before i wished it said ricers and not honda owners

*busts out the calculator* my car makes 68 HP per liter, yeah 400 divided by 5.8 ;)

and Hotrex i never doubted you had that ----, but just because you have that ---- doesn't mean you'll nessecarily end up using it that's why it's planned, ---- my best friend bought a Hahn racecraft turbo kit for his Talon and never even used it hence "planned"

EDIT: regarding my sig, it's kind of how i look at it in my area, there's very few modded imports and the few that are modded get owned constantly by the domestics (ls1 camaro's, me ;D, several vettes) not many people here are into the import "scene" yet and when i go talk to a guy about his Honda and he tells me he has a DOHC VTEC B18 under the hood when he's rollin the stock SOHC D16, no hate towards Honda's mang at all
