That looks awesome. Hows the ultra grey holding up? Engine bay is clean! Did you do springs/retainers for the z1 cams?
Ultra grey is basically same as Hondabond. It holds up great to everything. I changed my 45 degree 10an fitting tonight on the drian, i believe it was leaking there.
As for springs/retainers, i used type r dual valve springs and retainers. ill eventually upgrade to supertech set up, cheap and simple
well its alive. damn does the turbo ever whislte through an open downpipe, gawd damn it sounds sexy! it has to be the ball bearing, my journal never sounded like this.

cannot wait to hit the dyno! Im hoping for mid 400-500hp on the street and 600 on c16 :upsidedownparty:
Nice, love the 6265 - any videos of how it spools? And oh gawd BB turbos do sound SICK when it's open downpipe :drooling:
none yet. going to get the map sensor bug fixed then fire it up again. I tried using my android phone, but sound came out horrible! ill get my camera next time. It does sound badass!. My friend has a k24/k20 t4 6768 journal, and it doesnt sound anything like this!
That engine bay is ridiculously clean. In for numbers.
Tapatalk FTMFW!
Looks good!! Keep us updated
guess its been a while since i updated. had few little bugs to work out and now it runs nice and smooth. Have to love kpros triming option to make things perfect.
No numbers yet, just on 8psi and only running 0 cam angle. It takes some time to get it down on the street and theres no dyno around here i want to give my money too.

oh and i got my boostedk20.com stickers, it was too dark to take pictures
Decals look awesome! Thanks for posting the picture, adding this to the decal thread.
how much was the ktuned fuel set up?
No problem! there's on on the other side too :P
Not sure fresh si, but wasn't cheap. I had bought there big fuel set up for 600, then i added a couple more bends and longer -6an lines.
small update. Its been a crazy summer and me working nights and a shit load of overtime has been keeping me away from my car.
but i had it on the dyno for a few pulls just to see where it stood.
8 psi ( not creep thanks to boost/rpm), 13 timing in boost = 350whp and 272 trq.
Thats where i stood last year with my crappy tsx cams, prb manifold, 19 timing and 60-1 turbo.
Last night i messed around a little more. Pushed the timing up some ( 16, no knocks) and boost to 11.2psi. Spools 10psi by 4900rpm and holds to redline. All i can say its a handful. I was pretty impressed at the spool for a 6265 BB .82 exaust. My 60-1 was similar to this.
After talking to turbospoolin , i want to push it to 20-24 psi on the dyno and see what it does.
Adam, where was your car today at Fun Run? I was looking forward to seeing it.
Sitting at home in the driveway nice and dirty :P Few people asked me where we were, but it was my only day off that i could get stuff done while it was nice out. Not to mention i was getting some tuning done by Magnesium, which is more exciting to get the car done. It looked like a pretty good turnout though. Lots of supras
:drooling:
This is one sick build. That engine bay is gorgeous! Always loved that generation teg, too more than the one with the catfish front end.
truly one of my favorite builds ever.... i'm so jealous. Makes me wish I kept my DC2 and did this
jealous? ;) im sure we can work out a deal for your rsx hahaha :P It'll be for sale eventually. If not ill spend another 5000 this winter on it
Little update:
after some work, i just started to get fustrated of the car. Car worked good, but there was more in it. I emailed Joseph aka Magnesium from clubrsx, and after 2 days of working on the maps, i can say im a believer with e tuning. Its night and day difference. Just at 16psi the car moves more then i could imagine. The car drives around as if it was a stock car, no hicups no nothing, and all this on open loop (stock o2 is bad, using AEM)
Graph will come as soon as hes done. Shooting for 18psi (which he believes would be over 500whp) and i believe it.:thefinger:
sneak peak.
revs to 8600rpm, and timing isnt so low now.
http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._2925863_n.jpg
last year 350, this year going for over 500whp. Im going to skip the 400 mark:thefinger:
I <3 etuning. I'll never go back
i always said no to it, thats its impossible, garbage... but hey, it works no matter what people say. Can't bash on it when it makes 500+whp on pump fuel, while others go to the dyno and dont put out those numbers
7000 rpms 17.9 psi and 55% IDC... there is ALOT of power left in that car.

The only thing holding the car back right now is our fuel and my 2.6" catback exaust. 91 octane in canada is like 87 in the states. Its crap. Maybe at the end of the year i'll get the Magnesium to do some tuning on the dyno with c16/q16 for 22-25psi.
Im just excited to see what its at, im HOPING for 450+ and 350 trq. id be more then happy.
Magnesium tuning ftw.
heres a graph he sent me. its "a guide" to where im at roughly.
http://i989.photobucket.com/albums/a...ase/460341.jpg
and now its reving out to 8600, so probably picked up few more hp.
im anxious, especially for all the haters in this area browsing this site, only to take quotes back to a local site to bash ! :P
Hola senor
speak of the devil! haha
dyno time Sunday! all booked and ready to go
Dyno time booked.
sunday noon time on a dynojet. lets see what 17 psi will net me.
Hit the dyno.
We did 3rd gear pulls, so i wouldnt hurt the tranny. Never know but i want it to last for a bit. It would still have some wheel spin, but it made decent numbers.
443whp 300trq (which on the back of the sheet it reads 311trq) @ 17psi. I was hoping for little bit more, but i have a 2.5" catback exaust and only reved it ro 8000rpm (not 8600)
The torque looks weird, because he didnt scale it the same on both sides

Time to go race :P
when im back, ill buy a 3" exaust and see how that works. If its not higher HP ill add c16 and push 20-25psi
shit sounds killer.

oups, i guess we needed more straps after all!
took it to the track, had a map sensor issue, but after that got some passes in. Only did 4, which all ET sucked. best ET was 13.4 spinning whole track (except 4th) but managed to be consistant 124-126mph
going buy some slicks and try again.
love the car.... feelin' the valve cover. where did you get it done?
I shipped to diptech in Texas.
