Beaus car can finally move under its own power now, (wish I could say that about mine!) As you can see beau had a tad overspray of painting his cage on the windows, gives it that nice frosty x-mas look ;) https://www.homemadeturbo.com/beau/newbay.jpg 5g Radiator mounted in, at a slight angle, turbo setup is almost done, just need to do charge piping, and air/water plumbing.. https://www.homemadeturbo.com/beau/fuelsys.jpg Fuel system is all done, this is what I have left to do on my car, Gotta take it in the ass for this ----, big bucks, everything adds up so fast, 300 pump/150 regulator/50 filter/100 cell/200 -an lines/fittings/ 300 injectors/ 100 fuel rail. etc etc.. Pump sounds ------- crazy when it primes, haha https://www.homemadeturbo.com/beau/gauges1.jpg Bling gauges, liquid filled Boost/Water/Oil, and a nice Tach https://www.homemadeturbo.com/beau/gauges2.jpg all autometer, No shift light?! WTF! https://www.homemadeturbo.com/beau/rearcage.jpg Ass shot of the rear cage painted (almost) looks good, and it sound reall good too, I got all jealous and ---- when he was driving it around :( Nice work Beau |

Re:Some updated pics of Beaus race car...
Sorry if I'm not following along but what engine is that, crvtec? What valve cover is that? I like it better than my b16 cover.
Nice work Beau, next year go for RWD, I saw a civic hatch to ~8 secs with a 'ford' rear end. I'm jealous!!!! |

Re:Some updated pics of Beaus race car...
dizzam. liquid boost gauge? is there any response difference other than being smoother? i can get either for about the same price.
|
Re:Some updated pics of Beaus race car...
when do you shift on that baby?
|
Re:Some updated pics of Beaus race car...
wow, looking extremely good Beau! You did a good job on that roll cage... what's a good estimate of how much the car weights total?
BTW, keep it alive, don't go boost crazy ;) |
Re:Some updated pics of Beaus race car...
build me a cage...
ok three dinners at red lobster and all the beer you can drink.. -CF |
Re:Some updated pics of Beaus race car...

Re:Some updated pics of Beaus race car...
its a race car, why would you need a gas tank? 1 gallon is just enough
jeff |
Re:Some updated pics of Beaus race car...
focking nice manifold..and thats a huge turbo
|
Re:Some updated pics of Beaus race car...
even newbier question wtf is a fuel cell and what does it do lol
|
Re:Some updated pics of Beaus race car...
the turbo is really not that big. and a fuel cell is that blacl box with the red lid by the passenger shock tower it basicly is just a small gas tank that rep[laces the factory unit.

Re:Some updated pics of Beaus race car...
you running the DP under the car? Or are you going to make another one that exits the side? The car is looking good man...Hey Jeff its your turn to start your car :P
|
Re:Some updated pics of Beaus race car...
looks ------- great..
that exhaust manifold/header thing is badass! |
Re:Some updated pics of Beaus race car...
Questions!!!
Is that an older Eclipse intercooler modified? Looks like it might be liquid to air cooled or something crazy? What is that? Also, how much boost might you apply to make this thing go nuts? Thanks, it's lookin like an incredible machine, me likey. |
Re:Some updated pics of Beaus race car...
yes thats a old dsm side mount intercooler modified to be air water setup. im planning on running around 15psi
Beau |
Re:Some updated pics of Beaus race car...
Some Questions...Any idea on how much horsepower that baby is gonna produce? What are you going to be shifting when you're racing it at the strip? and goddamn that is one agressive fuel system! Are you runnin stock internals how come not more boost if you have upgraded innternals? Either way you've got one damn nice motor....i love all the gauges too, sexy! ;D
|
Re:Some updated pics of Beaus race car...
no clue how much hp it will make yes its a agressive fuel system. the engine is basickly a stock setup right now just a p@p head and srp pistons im going to epoxy the block soon.

Re:Some updated pics of Beaus race car...
:'( :'( :'( it's sooo sexy it's making me cry. That whole set-up is scary... I think I'm gonna go curl up into a corner when I go home. Great job on everything Beau looks like it's gonna be a beast.... Also this may sound stupid but is it gonna be a street legal car ( i mean with that little fuel cell you won't be able to go far but )Now don't everyone jump on me and say with all that and a roll cage it can't be street legal. When I say street legal I mean are you gonna have tags on it and drive it around on the road every once and awhile. What the sate and the DMV don't know won't hurt them. Just curious Beau how did you learn to make the cage and all the neat stuff you've done in the past years ? Just trial and error ? Thats basic how I learned since unlike crapy domestics they don't have a Import Hot-Rod university. But then again if they did it would probally be sponsored by A.P.C. and we all know where that would go.

The one gallon of race gas would get him around the block if he was taking it easy, which I doubt he would. :) __________________ Best Car Insurance | Auto Protection Today | FREE Trade-In Quote |
