Now paint that intercooler black, and you will have a good sleeper on your hands. It is a good theft deterrent.

Awesome man. I have the EF fever too. Come springtime I'll have pics up of mine, but your setup is looking great. I like the manifold/ wastegate setup alot. How did the MPFI conversion go for you? I'll be doing this as well and am a little sketchy on how things will go.

Re:photo shoot of the beast :)
 
those wheels came with the car when i bought it. they are 13s...:) and i dont know what kind they are. im running stock rods until i can afford some crowers. i tried the eagles and they required notching the bottom of the block and the main girrdle..so we left it stock for now. and yes kyle...i do need lower that ----, csaddict already pointed that out to me... :P

the mpfi swap wasnt as bad as i thought it would be. if you can find a junked si (i found a crx si) took the resistor box and get all the connecters and shityou can find too to make it clean looking. i had a lot of bugs to work out when i first did it, but got it working great in the end.
and yea mang, i got the smoking taken car of. had the motor taken apart and rebiult again. bad rings is what caused the problem

yeah very nice man, props to you. I just hope that wastegate tube coming off your manifold doesnt break

Re:photo shoot of the beast :)
 
It looks good. You could've went the distance and mounted that wastegate in the trunk though. :D The rods are the first things to go in a honda, so don't let those srp's fool you. ;)

there is a 1/4inch ss plate welded between the manigold and that 8inch tube that mounts to the wastegate, plus those to pieces of round bar. it aint going no wear
and stealth im getting a set of cowers once spring hits.

looks good man, i'm interested in that half rad install. the mounting up top looks good, but what did you do at the bottom, did you notch up your crossmember or did you notch up your hood. thanks

Re:photo shoot of the beast :)
 
did i make that decal? gangsta huh!!!

i notched out the hood so the rad cap would fit. i didnt notch the crossmember at all. i had to cut the stock radiator bottom mount out and weld two new ones in about a half inch lower. look at the pics it says it all

Re:photo shoot of the beast :)
 
the install looks way clean but i'd insulate the crap outta the battery terninal or glue some ruber hose to the charge pipe or one day the battery post will short against the charge pipe. yo ---- could bur yO!
