how is that a body kit? its a front lip and side skirts

I love it. I get full boost around 4100-4200 rpms in 2nd and 3rd. It pulls hard to redline, I need to extend the redline out about another 1000 rpms though. The dyno graph shows redline and the power has yet to flatten out. It would keep making power at 8-8.5K rpms if I took it out that far. The big stroke of the D makes me a little reluctant to do it though.

mustang dyno is a company but its not a prefered style. it reads low and sometimes high. where a dynojet dyno is considered to be the most accurate.

car looks nice. those rims look good liek that im so used to seeing jsut black or white.

It is the engine management that came with the Edelbrock kit. It is called Link Engine Management. It uses 4 additional injectors for boost, and uses the stock four and the honda ecu to manage no boost and idle. I got the handeld tuner and larger secondary injectors, then had it dyno tuned.

It had been at 18 psi on a gt28r for about a year before I upgraded to the gt2871r. The engine management actually works very well. Its big downfall is the fact that all tuning must be done on the handheld tuner, and not on a laptop. This means that all ignition and fuel tables must be manually shuffled through to get to the table that is desired.

The point of letting everyone know it is a turbo civic is because technically it is "street legal". All the parts on the car (minus my test pipe which has an OEM heat shield bolted to it) are street legal or look no different than the parts that came with the kit.

I actually just passed Ca. smog about a month ago with flying colors. The visual, ecu scan, and sniffer test were no problem at a legit smog place. If I do ever get pulled over I dont really have anyhting to worry about since it IS CARB legal and pases smog.
