ok I'll snap some exterior photos of his car tomorrow and post them up here and on wensday were taking it to the track. I got a borrowed fjo wideband that I need to wire up so we can turn the boost up even more. it's set at 7psi now. its amazing how well a honda responds to small boost increments. still no detanation. I have a SVO mustang(2.3L turbo) and 1lb of boost is barely noticable I run 20+psi to make it fast. 7lbs wouldn't do crap for it. How much boost can most of you guys run before the bottom end takes a crap(assuming a safe air fuel ratio) I plan on tuning it around 11.5 a/f with 93 octane and one big factor is were at 6000+ft elevation. the track is at 5000ft. I'm thinking 10-12psi should be safe up here with a 11.5 a/f ratio on 93.(10-12 psi at the track not daily driven)

ok here's the the times. pueblo motorsport park 5000ft temp in the high 60's. first past 5psi spike to 4psi ok launch with a 200lb passenger 16.6 ok for up here. second pass with his girlfreind 15.8 huge improvement 3rd pass solo(still at 4psi I might add) 15.6@89mph 2.45 60' then the lightning came so we couldn't run with the boost higher . all of this is with a very safe(rich) and mild tune(timing at .8 retard) and most importantly 4psi. the prelude came with us and he ran a best of 14.5@94mph. so I'm hoping with some wideband tuning, more timing, and a solid 10-12psi he can take him. do you guys think this is a possible goal? safely? I'm going to try and find a y8 maifold for him or just fab up a sheet metal one. what kind of power do those add anyways? like if I cut a stock manifold after the injector bungs ported that side out and made some decent sized runners with a boxed plenum.
