i've got the tein coils overs and k-mac camber kits coming on monday. i'll be doing some chasse mods also. this will help the car keep the weight over the front wheels and inturn run a better number. not too sure about using slicks with this d16y4 gearbox, dont want to break it just yet.
Regards Andrew.

Sould be back at the track in 3 weeks.

if you are interested ring AVO and get a price excluding the Link ECU, and i'll beat it.

[Integra GSR] Type R Turbo System $3,919.00 with a 400hp turbo and
320 hp turbo is 3599
No ecu or fuel pump. and no injectors.

i can get them. but im not in the possition to be quoting everbody who maybe thinking about going turbo. I'd rather somebody who can workout on their own what its going to cost and then come to me, dont take this the wrong way but i dont have time to deal with tyre kickers. If people are going to do it they will have the money, it all depends on who they want to give it to. With me i like to only deal with people who are serious, id rather meet them and talk to them about what they want/expect and give them that at a cheaper price, but i wont do crapy cheap ass doggie work as in the end they wont be happy and i'll look bad. i'd rather turn them away. I do enjoy doing the work, going to the track and racing with them. It really is fun to be part of it all. The Civic is owned by a close female friend of mine, and it has been nothing but fun and smiles all the way. I set out to run a 13.9 the first time out and ran a 13.885, after that we went back to my place and had pizza and beers, it was a great night for all involved.

550cc Injectors? They're a bit big aren't they? ;) :LOL:

Nice work!

550's are pretty common in kits. Almost all the Edelbrock kits have a 440cc or 550cc, I think Drag's all have 550cc and Greddy too unless it's an extreme kit, I've seen up to 1000cc in some.

that was an EK1 right?
what kit from AVO did you use? (part numbers?)
the website is hopeless and looks like its only for B-series engines
oh... and looks to be for an american market

I was hoping everyone would realise it was joke in relation t a recent argument about injector size. The smiley should have been a giveaway.

awesome work.

on a scale of 1-10, what sort of technical skill competence do u think u would need to have to do the turbo install by urself?
08-06-2006, 08:13 PM

it depends on how much additional work you are doing such as new ECU, injectors etc!
