win

 

Motor shots plz, i see an fmic

 

definitely more shots...FMIC + aren't u H22'ed?

 

i'd also cut out the front honeycomb in the bumper

 

nope still f23 with a T haha... i will get pics of my set up soon.. nothing to show off though... kinda messy beginner welds and DIY kitted together.. runs great tho and looks killer from the outside. im loving it

 

yeah i was wondering what i should do there... i think im gonna leave it... the IC fits perfectly .. didnt have to trim anything on the bumper cover, but had to notch out the bumper support, (its made from a composite FYI) for the top corners of the IC

the bumper grills gives it a differnt look then all the NA turbo'd cars out there. this looks totally custom and clean this way... gives it a classy sport look i think

 

I suppose so. But ummm 1 more thing...

 

Ya leave the bumper grills, that way it won't look exactly the same as mine

Good to see you're finally finished! Post up some engine bay pics. Ghetto DIY homemade f-series turbo kits for the win

 

Damnit... I just came

 

sick

 

i like the honeycomb. looks hot man

 

haha not exactly by far i believe im the only ww lip in calgary

 

 

maybe you guys can help me with the pcv lines... my breather line is starting to look like a clogged artery

i have this set up.

 

Hit +87 Kpa on my afc tonight... surprised the crap outta me, thought i might of hurt something, all is good tho... was a wicked feeling

87 KPa = ~ 12.6 PSI

do you think i should loosen the BOV spring? or back the MBC off abit? haha

 

Johnny that set-up looks sweet, you are the man!
For the pcv lines:
I believe that the most important thing to do is to vent the crankcase especially during boost.

What I am doing is setting up ventilation from both the breather and the pcv directly into a catch can.





The catch can in the picture doesn't have a breather filter so I'm gonna add one to the top.

 

nice can... yaeh i could do that.. but isnt that bad for the environment? because you know driving around WOT saves gas which makes less polution... haha lol

 

Damn nice ride man. Yeah go alberta CL's! hahaha we should have an Alberta meet or something

 

As for boosting to 87kpa, what is your wastegate spring set to? Your BOV should not be making much of a difference on the amount of boost you are running.

What kind of boost controller do you have?

Also, are you running open downpipe or does it just look that way in the picture?

 

EBAY MBC

Noway that would be so freaken loud.... 2.5 down to the stock cat back until the muffler which is a staight through type... seems to be good enough for the power i want to be at.

 

Thats so clean looking.

Beautiful CL.

 

I'm impressed at the setup! Looks good. Looks like medusa's head in ur engine bay though, you have ALOT of wires going everywhere haha. How much HP would u say you're putting down?

 

my guess is about ~220 whp but quiet abit of lag, spools at 3500 full at 4k, not your ideal drag car. but wicked when downshifted.

hit 92 KPa on the afc reading tonight in 4th gear.. thats 13.35 PSI.... the f23's must have strong MAP sensors, they say you should only be able to get 12 on most honda MAP sensors. Car ran outta air around that point.. maybe my exhaust system, or fuel pump, but they say the stock pump can go to atleast 300 whp and im nowhere near that.

 

yeah im wondering the same thing about the stock fuel pump. I'd love to be able to save myself the money and just use the stock 1 instead of buying a walbro 255lph unit.

 

btw now that blenz is on the prowl w/a turbo too, you gotta line 'em up and see who's boss! haha

 

id love to, win or lose its all fun.. haha.. but maybe it should wait until i have a chipped ecu.. they say the afc hack runs too advanced timing for boost, plus its rich on the bottom end.

 

looks great man.

 

Glad u got it all together johnny, still need to trim up those projectors though

 

im gonna leave them like that... i like the smokey eye look. plus im lazy. haha

 

lined up with my lil bros 96 5speed lexus SC300, was pulling on him in 3rd by like two car lengths, we shut it down at that point. considering his car is rear wheel and has tonnes of TQ. i'm happy. was getting ~10psi.

he told me im quicker then his friends heavily bolt on mod'ed GSR. non of us has a time slip tho, but car and driver says the stock GSR is about 15.3

i think i might be a high 14 second CL

 

that sounds about right. for only 10psi.

engine shots!! please!!

 

there are engine shot on page one

 

o0o shit dude i missed that. my bad.

 

i think my car is running so rich right now, my bro says he sees mist coming outta my exhaust. is that possible? haha

 

update:
car is still running strong. but will have to redo my oil pan seal to the block, leaks pretty good... haha.

still running the afc hack at -50% throughout, only my idle is a bit rich.
actual PSI is only about 5-6psi on the boost gauge, afc readings were recording the spikes.

 

I know it may be a bit much to ask, but would you be willing to PM me what parts you used aside from the basics? Your setup is what I want. Just curious if you did injectors and whatnot, any engine work, and what you are doing for tuning. Turbo trim would be nice too

 

im jealous
