Get them to update the thread here....keep this forum going.
the owner of that car, is have personal issues and will not be able to tune it for months. one is being made for an rsx chassis right now, so if your serious spaz or anyone else please say so.
Bodyman purchased a manifold, downpipe and dump tube for his em2, he sold his full race. he should have the mani in a few weeks. The only this his car is missing besides the manifold is ems, he wants to get flash pro, Im trying to convince him to get aem
I have an FG2 and would be willing to test and tune this manifold. :) if I get to keep it

you have to buy it, but they will sell it to ya for close to half of what anyone else would charge
I would still be interested at half price but I broke my 4th gear yesterday LOL
It would be so nice having one of these for the 8th gen. I'm so sick of going under my car and ripping off the subframe everytime I need to do anything
lmk, if someone is serious I can make it happen.
8th civic application is only a paypal transaction away
See something similar in here? http://www.boostedk20.com/forums/sho...en-K-Tuned.com
Where are you located at? I seen this car at eibach but I don't think it had that Manu at the time or am I mistaken?Quote:

I believe full races idea was to have a forward facing turbo, Allow for the use of a bigger turbo then what could fit between the firewall and head. So far I haven't heard of many issues with FR sidewinders creeping. It's all been in the peakboost manifolds even after doing a 60mm gate someone had creep issues. I like this manifold but not sure how the air flow to the turbo is with the gate hitting and reflecting it back into the stream.
the FR manifold for the 8th gen actually doesnt face forward like for the rsx, its trapped between the hot ass engine and fire wall. i have to remove my cowling to prevent my engine bay from completly boiling. who knows how sitting back there effects the IAT's. Its super rediculous of a place to be set at. Its a PITA to do any turbo work. Ud have to remove the subframe for just about anything. god forbid u have a hose leak or something cuz then your fckd. i wish i could do it all over again and get a sidewinder or something and customize it to fit because im super unhappy with the way my turbo has to sit back there. FR could have easily made a sidewinder to go back there for the 8thgen.
the only problem with the 8th gen civics and that there is no one willing to lend their car to use it for mock up in phoenix. bodyman will get a manifold shortly to dyno it with his water to air setup. i was told yesterday that locash racing will MAYBE dyno the four door this week, thats a maybe. once i get any boost graph i will post asap :thumb:
the car is from phoenix. this manifold setup was on the car for wekfest and eibach and we took it the nisei this pass weekend
I'm in NY, AZ is a hell of a trip for me :shrug: And I'd need a custom downpipe to set everything off, tempting though. Very tempting.Quote:

Looks like it needs more tuning if possible ?

Stock 06 tsx short block .. Stock K20a2 head with 06 tsx cams.. Id1000..70mm hybrid tb..precision 6266.. Tial 44mm gate... Remember it's only on the gates spring next is with boost solenoidQuote:

Yeah that is a large turbo.... I made that much power with a much smaller turbo, on a log manifold, and at 15 psi....
It's definitely NOT DONE TUNING ..
Ok well then that's the reason! You should be making north of 400whp probably even 450 with that turbo!

:yeahthat: But it's still not done so let's stay in for reviews. There are other factors as well, such as charge pipe size, intercooler, fuel (I assume this is pump 93), so let's see what happens. So far it sounds great!
