hey guys, was just curious to know if you lose the vtec roar when you turbo it? This being the only turbo cars ive seen actually going werent vtec. (full house honda city :) and a Si Civic twincam). So i was curious. Just because i love the sound of my type r now was wondering if it sounded alot different.
Cheers guys

you can still hear the engine scream!! but obviously not as loud through boost. BUT now that ive done some MAJOR changes things could be different when i get my engine back together!!


and in my op... the sound of vtec opening up sounds 10x better than turbo spool:thumbsup:

..but the POWER oh the POWER:D

Jesus Christ James, that thing sounded like it would have sucked in a gaping spectator if it wasnt for the fence!!!!

Im with Panda! if 300 odd KW isnt crazy enough, what are you getting now?!?!?

What did you have the redline set at for that last dyno run?!?

I was expecting a head gasket to blow or a coolant hose or something along those lines, or at its worst a rod to smash a hole in the block!

Neways cheers for the tough setup, the hairs on my neck are still standing up :D
