Looks nice man... now you need to add the aero rear bumper.

UTAH TSX

The front sport bumper is first on my list it got beat up taking it on and off trying different inter coolers for optimus and my setups I bet I took it on and off 50 times

anymore info on the mufflers Utah? are they just XL Turbo Mufflers with single inlet dual outlet with tips put on them? starting to look at ways to build my own custom exhaust since there really is no support for CU2's yet...and im not speding $1200 on the kit from heeltoeauto.com either....

any details on size/type of mufflers and what size tips your running too would be highly appreciated!

UTAH TSX

I used magnaflow 14815 mufflers, if I was to do it again I would use the muffler with short tips and they are 4 in instead of 3.5 in, the mufflers barely fit because they were so long with the tip I think they are number 14807 magnaflow

UTAH TSX

Had a little fun racing a new STI on the freeway today, I pulled away no problem not even close 3 time from 50 MPH to about 100 MPH let him get big jump the last two times)

VR1

Did you have to cut the bumpers at all to quad exhaust?

UTAH TSX

I did still need to trim a little to make it straight, it does not look cut looks factory

UTAH TSX

Crappy videos, got pulled over no ticket cop liked my car said it was really fast

iCrap

Sounds really nice but maybe a bit too much droan.
Can you even get traction though or are you pretty much just spinning through everything? hard to tell from vid.

UTAH TSX

Been fighting the droan might add another resonator'
traction about half throttle in the videos in 1st and 2nd 3rd I can go full throttle

UTAH TSX

Well I thaught I was done but still to much droan so I ordered some sound deadoner and another resonator f#@##!n spent like a grand on my exhaust now

iSeeYouTwo

Dude those mountains look amazing


Btw, the car sounds amazing. And those wheels are pretty nice too. Never realized you were so low.

UTAH TSX

Installed sound proofing today, I still have a little more to put under the back seat and on the back and sides of trunk

VitViper

Scott, you have an high res pics of the car/setup I can post on my facebook page? Would love to share your ride!

UTAH TSX

I will get you something soon, been busy and no time to clean up good for pictures

UTAH TSX

Installing a second resonator today to try and get rid of droan, will see how it worked on my way home.

waaasobe

those 2 post in ground lifts must be so nice, we only have the single piston ones at my work ash they are such a pain in the ass sometimes. your car just gets better and better every time i see it. also, the area you live in is stunning.

musty hustla

The mountain backdrop was as impressive as the car.

UTAH TSX

Ok after a few days of driving, I think I can live with the sound, I'm going to finish wrapping the rest of the exhaust resonators and all, that might drop the drone level a little more, this zero back pressure is a little tough to get quiet enough to live with.
So I'm done with my car for a while, I have several people ready to turbo there TSX's and I need to concentrate on that.

UTAH TSX

Well it's time to get busy been having fun with the car it loves the cold air half throttle and full boost is so fun.
Installed HID conversion kit in my fog lights and put led bulbs in my plate lights (the best 20 bucks I think I have ever spent what a difference on a white car it glows now LOL), been waiting on a friend at work to help me make a professional video his brother does it for a living, now it's off to fabrication on a couple of kits.

I think the final part for the LSD swap has finally been purchased. I am hoping my mechanic can get my car in and up on the lift to get going. This winter has been brutal, and totally demotivating.

UTAH TSX

I think mrCHOW has turbo fever, it's awesome I cant wait to get in my car and drive even to just go to work
Optimus can't wait to see this get finished and see the thrill it will give you to

mrCHOW

Used to have big turbo A4 before I got the TSX. You know what they say..
Once you go boost.... You don't go back.

She's going into the shop next week for the exhaust to be done =P 3" from downpipe to apexi N1 tips

iCrap

Now you just need to do the AWD swap like that one russian guy did. AWD + Turbo in the TSX would be amazing.

optimusaccord

So, I believe I got the final piece needed for the LSD swap. I am trying to line up with my mechanic to get the LSD and turbo installed as quickly as possible.

This winter we have had has been long and brutal, I am ready for it to be over.

TSX210

looks so clean!! I didnt have a roller and had to cut around this damn air tank. I also removed the clothe over wells and did under there. still have much more

UTAH TSX

It helped reduce my exhaust drone a little bit but not really worth it IMO

TSX210

yeah i got the extreme black and it def helped reduce the noise of my 2 444c compressors

UTAH TSX

Is that the tar type on foil like I used ??

ssjoeboe9

How does a catch can that can filter 88% of oil particles at 1 micron and 100% particles >1micron sound to you?!

UTAH TSX

Awsome mine doesent really work at all I got tired of smelling the fumes so I plumed it back into the intake manifold and put another bottle on it so the oil wont driain back into the motor

TSX210

yes its the extreme so its alot thicker. no tar just rubber

killa4eva15

iv been ready to turbo my K24Z3

UTAH TSX

I just started making a kit only one right now, I just don't have the cash up front to build two kits, nobody has put a deposit down on it it yet so if you are interested let me know

iCrap

Is there an estimate on how much a kit will cost?

UTAH TSX

By the time you get everything needed flashpro injectors fuel pump turbo kit boost controller tuning you will spend approximately 7,500 this is a high quality ball bearing turbo and tuning with VitViper Tuning no cheap junk here

optimusaccord

Yeah.

Like I had mentioned so long ago, people always talk, but when it comes to money always real tight with it.

streetthrowback

Hey Utah tsx did you fab that little manifold or did you buy it?

UTAH TSX

Yes I make it, look at PRL motorsporsts manifold it may work better for you or I can make a custom one for you.
Oh also check out the 9th civic site same exact engine other than engine mount location
http://www.9thgencivic.com/forum/index.php lots of info there
the k24z3 and z7 are great motors very tough and love boost over 400 whp I recommend forged pistons and aftermarket rods
