I have just recieved my SkunkII intake manifold in the mail today. I will also be getting my downpipe made, soon. When everything is hooked up, I am going to take my CL to the dyno and hope that I break 300 whp.

H22-Turbo power!

 

No more secondaries? interesting.

LSD? helluva lot of power to try and put down to the ground through one wheel.

 

VERY NICE! Good luck with that brother, your car is gonna be sick when all is said and done

 

good luck man its gonna be badass if you break 300

 

That is pimp man I hope u do break the 300 mark good luck man.

 

damn, i hope you break 300hp as well

 

300? holy .. how much of that goes to the wheels?

 

eHhHh HOW MUCH TORQUE??? it doesnt matter how much horses you got. Its the torque...is it pulling????

 

I haven't sent my car to the dyno, yet.

 

Hoy Budding, looks like your gonna giveeeeeeemmmmmmmmmmmm.

 

I'm not knockin you, I know it will be fast, but just curious, why the fancy intake manifold but the home made looking exhaust manifold?

 

What a retarded comment. Am I not supposed to have a brand new intake manifold and used rev hard turbo manifold as my turbo set up? I bought the turbo kit used. Im sorry I couldn't meet your expectations with my "used" parts.

 

 

u get so bent out of shape so easily...

well i hope you do well on the dyno my friend

 

this cars fuckin animal!

 

I thought it was quite a reasonable question. You have an engine swap which isn't cheap, a turbo setup which isn't cheap either, and now a brand new intake manifold, yet your manifold appears to have patch welds on it. That just didnt seem to add up. I have used parts too, I'm not saying they arent good enough or wont work just fine, and I didnt mean any offense as I stated. In any case, good luck on the dyno.

 

he said 300 to the wheels so he is hoping to get 300 at the wheels so the question about how much of the 300 gets to the wheels... 300... and probably 400 at the crank.

looks good... now get some rims.

 

extreme power...

goodluck insyone!

 

Patch welds? Trust me, if the turbo manifold was fucked up, I wouldn't be using it. The manifold is just burned because of the paint that ashed off it. I am not offended by your comment, but I don't see why you're so concerned?

 

good luck with it man...for some reason i cant see the pics

 

yeah, im sorry about that. the server is down for a bit. ill try to re-host it somewhere else.

 

he is concerned because he has a turbo too and probably doesn't want to see you blow something by accident.

 

that wouldve been a more reasonable response if it were coming from him.

 

WOW, 300 horse is Radiculoso !!!! and about the cast iron manifold post that that member made. well, HELLO, for high HP engines im sure you know that having a cast manifold is better due to the metals tencile, and strength characteristics. PLus, speed doesnt have to look pretty, as long as you BEAT THE LIVING SHIT out of your oponent

 

Cast manifolds suck. Welded manifolds are way better. Who cares how ugly it is, as long as it works rite. Pretty silly comment comming from a guy that's running 10psi boost and still not putting down impressive track #'s. Maybe you could use a ugly welded manifold.

 

do you have d/r's, and if not how are you going to control the spin especially with the front wheel drive? That is unbelievable power for a 4 cyl, hope it doesnt shorten the life of your engine by too much. Good luck with the dyno, try and get some pics up, id like to see your engine n shit.

 

2 seconds off stock not impressive? Yes they should be better, but its not like im a pro driver or anything. Plus its way better as a daily driver so I could care less about track times. I just thought it was odd that everything else looked top notch except for the manifold, which is like the centerpiece of a turbo setup. I wasnt saying he shouldnt use it or it wouldnt work well. Ive seen a lot of manifolds like that on hondatech that were either home made or were of poor build quality and had to be repaired, and really i was wondering what the deal was. In hindsight I should have asked more directly what kind of mani. it was or not said anything.

 

As long as it flows properly, and there are no boost or exhaust leaks, it should be ok. If you see the manifold in person, it's not as bad as you make it out to be. The welds are consistant, and done properly. As a welder myself, the welds are decent, and done correctly. Good luck with your turbo project.

 

Like the new rims. What size are those c5's?

 

 

thats the first time i seen somebody with my rims. looks hot on silver

 

good luck with the dyno! post more picture of ur car.
