Anyone have or know where I can get a coolant block off plate for turbo manifold?

779civic

I guess I could just make my own.

Dude out of Florida was selling them. What part of Oklahoma you from?

779civic

Tulsa.

KenB350z

I will be in Tulsa later today. What have you done to your RDX so far? I won't need my block off plate as soon as I get my K20 head on.

Precision 5931, id1000, dw65, j35 tb, fmic, ported stock intake manifold, 3.5 intake. Still has stock turbo manifold with an adapter I made. Spool time sucks. I'm hoping if I ditch my ghetto adapter it will help.

KenB350z

Wow, that looks really nice man!

779civic

Thanks. It pulls hard from a roll but from a stop doesn't really move til 200-330 ft. Cars a full second slower with this turbo Vs stock. And a 2.9 60ft.

I have one available if you are interested

KenB350z

Yeah I would stick with a small Turbo if you or trying to do drag racing, but if you want to Road Race I guess that turbo wouldn't suffice.

If switching manifolds doesn't help. I'm going to put a 35-50 shot. Have it spray from 0-10psi. Zex sells a kit thats boost regulated.

KenB350z

lol, that's what I was thinking. Nitrous would definitely wake it up!

KenB350z

What manifold you going with?

779civic

Was thinking a log manifold. It should have quickest spool.

KenB350z

Nice, how often do you to the drag strip up there? Personally I wouldn't mind going to Hallett Raceway.

779civic

A few times a year. Not enough. Went to ifo yesterday and was very disappointed in the car. So it's back to the drawing board.

KenB350z

I hear you man, are you getting your stuff tuned locally?

779civic

Been doing all the tuning myself. I was going to have Alex from humble performance tune it with the bigger turbo. But I can't get ahold of him. I've called and left messages twice, went to the shop he wasn't there and messaged him on facebook

KenB350z

you must be out of town for drag racing or something. I'll swing by there later today. Are you close to them at all?

779civic

Yeah I'm close. I live in broken arrow.

KenB350z

Oh ok.

I was thinking about doing vit tune, but didn't like the mixed reviews on him.

KenB350z

Cars and Coffee and caffeine and gasoline in Tulsa. It seems like caffeine and gasoline is more like a cruise which looks pretty fun!

. If you don't want to go through vit then the next subject matter expert would be Derek Robinson who has the current record for this chassis! Nice guy busy knowledgeable knows limitations of hondata

You should both come up in July

779civic

you have his info? what's the record?

KenB350z

stock turbo 13.2

KenB350z

Personally I could go back stock, but the way my car is; I like the big Texas miles setup I got.

779civic

Seen that rdx before. Found him on instagram

KenB350z

30mph roll please! I wonder if the drag strips here have the roll-on 1/4 mile races. Would be nice, BRAKE BOOST!

what kind of power are you looking for?

779civic

was hoping for 400+. But mainly focused on quicker spool and launch now.

779civic

I'm wondering what his car would run with stock wheel size. Or maybe he did I just remember it was 16 rim

KenB350z

Yeah, 16 or 15 wheel with slicks.

KenB350z

That turbo you have should spool faster then mine for sure, and should see 400+ easy. It's good for 600.

Haré romel

Hi, they change torque converter with 3000rpm stall, this help alot 1/4 mile. you dont need load from begining.

KenB350z

What?!?! Man.... That's when my turbo spools (2500-3000rpm), would be in the 11's if I had that stall.
