Oh and this is with practically new tires (only 6100 miles) and 4 people in the car!! This is with a peak of only about 5.8psi of boost too. Even the turbo engineers here at Garrett were impressed. Anyway, just wanted to report. Sorry we don't have any videos yet.
7/9/04... Sorry we don't have any videos yet...

End of the world as we know it-... Sorry we don't have any videos yet...
DAMNIT, WE NEED VIDS!! You are a MEAN AND EVIL PERSON.

Well I had the bumper off and the IC piping out this morning to grind off some areas in the front end where it was rattling. Tonight I went to the movies with some friends and was driving around sort of getting on it now and then. I just didn't feel right, but they were still impressed. So on the way home I decided to really show them how it ran and rolled into the throttle in 1st; it felt okay, but at the top of first it kind of died and when I shifted into 2nd there was nothing... I quickly looked over at the boost gauge and it read 0. 
I know exactly what happened. I was in a hurry earlier when putting everything back together and forgot to tighten a couple of the screw clamps on the IC pipes 
It blew one of the pipes off. I was relieved it was only that. I plugged them back in and it's all better; I will have to take them for another ride sometime...
I feel stupid now

You should be getting 5.5psi to 5.8psi, correct? That's pretty much what I get and I assume there are no leaks.
Did you get the rattles out completeley? Does the manifold rattle at all?

Oh, yes peak boost is ~5.8psi.Well I had all the rattles fixed (also using some rubber pieces to help) but now since that pipe came off I have to take the bumper off and do it all over again. But even with the rattles gone there is still some sort of resonance somewhere. Need to investigate. Hurry up and get back so we can have a meet.

I am very pleased with how it turned out. Thanks to Allmotor_2000 for all his help and knowledge. The sound of the turbo rushing up to speed and the BOV is truley awesome. Not to mention the car simply hauls ass without even trying now. It's great... everyone should have one

You've come a long way bro... Looks KILLER!I still can't believe this is the same Steve that had 16 gauge wires to his amps all over the floor when I met you a little over 10 years ago...
Glad to see I rubbed a little of my speed freakness off on you over the years. I sure do miss coming over and messing with the cars every other day... Maybe when I get my ass outta school I can get a job out there and we can kick it like old school days again...
Get a safe tune on that biotch and don't blow her up before I get to drive it!...

^^^ Well well, look who it is!! I haven't heard from you in a while!! 2LOW4U, huh? I remember that plate you had on your Integra. Too bad you can't be here when he brings his CL up. Going to get some vids of him racing me (I already know he is going to win, but just want some vids). Don't worry, he won't blow anything on his car. The only way that motor will get blown is if YOU drive it 
!!
I will send you some videos of our cars sometime if you want. Can't wait to see his car in person when he comes up.

You trying to say that my old camaro I had was slow or something? The three way race is what I'm planing. I'm also going to attempt to get an SRT-4 in the video, too. Just so we can show how many different types of cars the turbo CL can beat. So, what do you think there mister all mighty 'I have the fastest car on the planet' of the cars I hope to have in the video/movie? Would be great if your lanky ass could come out with your car sometime. I still haven't seen this car with my own eyes. You alway fly out instead of driving out. Hmmm, I wouldn't want to drive that car all that way either, though, so I don't blame you.~250HP Honda Civic
~340HP WRX
~250HP SRT-4
~230HP Aero
~450HP CL-S
