New Guy

[EM2guy]

Hey guys I just joined up. You might have seen me at the last two parking deck meets. My name is Brandon, and I drive the silver 05 civic. So far I only have intake, header, pulleys, and exhaust installed, but I am steadily buying parts for my turbo kit. All I really have left is to pic up my lines, charge pipe, and AEM FIC.

here are some pics of some of my goodies...

Garrett air research t3 .42/.48 turbo, tial wastegate, turbo xs rfl bov, my manifold that i snagged from Nopi, and you can see one end of my turbo xs intercooler w/ same side inlet outlet

Nice, check out www.aemfic.com. A member here (Jess) just started it up so there isn't a whole lot of info on there yet but I'm sure he'd be willing to help out.

Sweet lookin manifold ;) Oh, and welcome to the forums.

:pics: :fuckoff:

That's a cute turbo you have there..... does it blow dry your hair to? :P Be ready for that manifold to raise underhood temps and soak that SMIC.



Let's see some pics of your car.



Welcome
:newbie: :bfg:

Does that make it easier to put in the VTAK juice. No internals with the upgrade?
How much Boost?

[EM2guy]

Added the only outside pic of my car that I have up top and here

(sad I know) as for the intercooler, I am actually routing as a front mount. Its just easier with the em2 to route everything to the passenger side. I will be starting off running around 5.8 lbs of boost with a .40 bar spring in the wastegate until I can afford to replace the intake manifold with a modified aftermarket d16 manifold and throttle body since no one makes an aftermarket intake mani for the d17, and the stock just so happens to be plastic :-( ... when I have that replaced I will port n' polish then raise the boost to around 8, replace the clutch with a stage two exedy, and possibly change to an aftermarket fly wheel and retune... Just as a side note I only want to hit around 220 wheel horsepower and there are several guys on the honda-tech forum who I have spoken to that with around 5-6 pounds on a completely bolt on kit, and a good port n' polish are making around 210 whp one of which has an auto tranny. So I am pretty confident that I can reach this safely without diggin into the internals

Thanks for the plug ;)

Good luck on the boost. :dance:

[TheWill]

good meeting you the other night, just keep the boost in check and you will be fine. And as far as the k20, would he have to do a complete over haul on the motor bay and change the cradle? ? 10k for k20 vs. maybe 5k for turbo..:confused: :confused:
