Thanks man. The head was already built before. So just replaced the cams and installed 50* VTC ON THE TSX cams I installed last night.Quote:

Finished the cam swap last night. Still need to valve lash and install VC.

Also installed my new turbo blanket.

Got the poly bushings out of my old LCA's and pushed in the new blox sphericals. Can't wait to see how it responds with these in. Waiting on my PLX wideband still. Should be in tomorrow. Also ordered my brakes to be able to fit my new slicks. Wheels will be shipped this week to me. Very exciting things happening. Just need to be able to get it all done before things kick off here for racing season.
Bearing installed and back in the car.

New brake rotors and EBC yellow stuff pads
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...e25b9807e2.jpg
Also ordered some new powder coated calipers and sliders. I am replacing them because I had shaved down my stock ones pretty far to fit my last set of slicks and I never really felt too confident in them. Glad to have finally gotten them off the car.
Stainless braided brake lines as well.

A friend of mine hit the wall at 150mph because an oem brake line burst. He said he'd never race a car again without those lines being replaced. Figured I'd step it up as well.
Also for future use I bought a ball joint separator. So tired of ruining boots and having trouble getting it out for the LCA's
No I did not order this one as its $288 dollars and I'm not about that life. Lol
I ordred the harbor freight special

Any display issues with the gauge? And how is it with the auxiliary cable connectors? Heard that's a real PITA for PLX wideband owners. In for pics via dameliophotography!
I really like the PLX. Install was a breeze. Having tha additional little box is actually not a bad thing at all. It's very small when you have it in your hand.Quote:

Ok so it's been a while since I've been posting. I've had various reasons as to why that is. Mainly because I didn't want everyone knowing 100% of what my car had done on the dyno. But I just don't care anymore at this point.
So anyways I found out what my Ecu issue was. My kpro board had fried. So I sent my Ecu is for diag/repair. $350 later I received a working kpro.
Car started up perfect. THANK GOD!
Got the car loaded up on the trailer and off we went to the shop.

#treblictuned shop is the shit. Nothing in there that isn't racecar. Except mine when He pulled it on the dyno.

Strapped her down and he built me up a Kal. Asked me questions about the build, trans, wastegate, Ect.
He did his first pull to see what the gate would hold. It held a solid 6psi to redline
https://vimeo.com/169038238
Car made like 240hp. That was pretty sweet. But even with the pwm booster the spring would only go to 9psi at 80% duty cycle. So we took the gate off and changed out the spring to a 12psi Spring. Going from 6psi spring to 12lb Spring the car picked up 100hp. Lol
https://vimeo.com/169038535
Tuning in 93 pump gas from 7-11. The car layed down 554hp @ 17psi with the filter on the turbo. I asked him if the filter was too small and he said "let's do a pull with it off".
https://vimeo.com/169038674
Car made 562hp with it off. So all in all the filter is doing pretty well. Flowing enough Ect.
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...4f8a3bf5ef.jpg
Out goes the pump gas and in goes the race gas. 2- 5 gallons of Q16.
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...ed05e5e0f7.jpg
First pull on the gas with modified ignition car made 640hp tires barely holding the power to redline. Next pull he added to trackbite to the rollers to try and help and it blew the tires off and made 646hp.
https://vimeo.com/169039014
Tuner said he was Leary about tuning in 4th gear as the car would pick up a shit ton of torque. He was worried about the trans. (He forgot I had a PPG do my box in there. Lol) so I said fuck that put it in 4th.
First pull In 4th gear 30psi a coupler blew off the tb and the car made an astounding 780whp.
https://vimeo.com/169039140
I couldn't believe the car had just done that. My goal walking in there was 700. And 740 MAX! But it made that. I kept asking if that was real!
We fixed the coupler and used a bit of hairspray to keep it on this time. Next run on the dyno.
https://vimeo.com/169039379
Made 793whp 603ft/lb trq @30.1psi.
My little Borg s366 was putting in some work.
We turned it back down to 27psi and it made 733whp. So that is where it sits currently.
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...ea550ad337.jpg
https://vimeo.com/169039437
All in all I am extremely happy with the car and tune and it's amazing how much power these K's can make. Only trouble being the chassis it's in. They are so heavy and restrictive.
I drove the car to the track the next weekend and got tires switched over.
Car looks mean AF!
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...1b2e77f7d4.jpg
First pass of the day
11.5 @ 139mph
Car drifted towards the wall and yes I got scared of it. Lol
2nd pass.
11.33 @ 122mph
Car drifted again and started cutting out. Let off at some point.
3rd pass
11.1 @ 143mph
Car ran solid but I knew it had more. I was getting more and more comfortable with it.
I decided I wasn't leaving till I went 10's.
So back to the lanes I went.
4th pass
10.74 @ 145
Car ran great. Small hiccup with the throttle.
https://vimeo.com/169040005
Found out the tps wires were held on by a couple strands on one or two wires.
Fixed that and am about to head back to get some more personal bests.
Wish me luck.

Headed to exhaust shop this morning and my hood flew up. Busted up a bunch of stuff.

I suppose the update I could give is the car will come back with fresh paint all over and a bit of a shocker in there. I went back to having a Type R rep wing. The gf loves the wing and I found one for a cheap deal and got it to give a try.
I purchased some components for my new exhaust I am having made.
It's going to be an oval midpipe, to a pair of race muffler leading to the rear bumper.

The vibrant 9" will act as my resonator just before the rear LCA.
THE EXTENDED tip muffler will be my muffler exiting the rear bumper. I can't wait to see and hear the end result.

Today guy messages me, his wife's not feeling better, come tomorrow.
So Monday I will go over and see the car I believe. If not, then I will be there Tuesday at lunch time no matter what.

I saw some updated pics you posted. Hows things coming along now? I hate to say it, but with all these crooked shops and dishonest mechanics/workers today, I can't help but wonder if the wife excuse was legit. It's understandable. Things come up, it happens. Continued excuses are a whole 'nother story though. Hoping all is going well!Quote:

Then Wednesday night I finished up a friend of mines transmission.
He bought a full rebuild kit along with the carbon lined synchros.
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...920c49228e.jpg
Then I mounted up his flywheel and clutch http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...0f08988b0c.jpg
And then we mated the trans and motor together but I do not have pictures of that. It was getting quite late.
Anyways stay tuned for finished bodywork pics and hopefully to get my friend on here posting pics of his setup and swap himself.

She finished?
Ah I see it now, pics didn't load.
I love the attempt at covering the cooler lol
What's up guys! I'm BACCCKKKK again!!
Cars been sitting for a good long while. Got her collecting dust while I was collecting parts.
In 2016 the race season started off well. I ran a 10.74 @145 my first day at the track. Switched the tires and drive back home. (Street car shit!)
Ran at a few events and as we got closer to summer the car started experiencing a high boost break up. So I changed plugs and nothing. Swapped cool packs and nothing, well finally I found it. HEADGASKET! I hate doing that type of work while the motors in the car but did it anyways.
She's back together now and I have done some part changes that I'd like to share with you all.
First up!
I sold my radiator, FMIC and piping as well as my skunk2 ultra Intake manifold.
I upgraded all of those parts as you'll see.
I went with the skunk2 ultra centerfeed Intake manifold now, same 90mm tb
Going with a skunk2 alpha radiator from a 92-95 civic.
KLM Fabrication intercooler and piping
Hondata Traction control which I bought off another member on here. Shout outs to you with the home boy hook up per usual!!!
Upgraded to FID 2000cc injectors thanks to Shanket for that hook up.
Bought hood risers which I never thought I'd buy but to increase heat evacuation I'll do it.
Various fittings to plumb the new rad setup.
AEM Flex fuel sensor, I won it off a parts raffle on FB. Dopeness!
And that's about it! I'm going to E85 if you hadn't guessed by now. I'm going to be redoing the whole fuel system this winter to allow for some really big power on ethanol.
I'll be headed back to Treblic for my e85/93 pump tune shortly. So stay tuned for progress.
On to the pics....

Pics are in complete random order. The track pics are the tail end of last season. Stay tuned!!
Love the photos, and glad you're back! Elated that baby K is healthy and doing well :thumb: This is going to be a fun season!!
Time to update with the Comp 6767 news! :lildevil:
Sorry I have been gone so long guys. A lot has gone on in life to remove me from frequent posting lately.
Here are some updates as follows:
I was rolling around with a friend in his K swap Teg and I wanted to get a little fly by video of the car. So I took and downshifted and let her eat.
Well.... it sounds like a missed gear but really what you hear is me breaking a shift fork while snagging 3rd gear.
So..
I dropped the trans to install a shift fork I had modified (thanks for the advice from the owner of Power Proven in FL). And threw her back together. In the process I had decided that it was the perfect time to upgrade turbos since I’m looking to hit the 850+whp mark at my next dyno session.

https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...fa4bd2deaf.jpg
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...0449dd06f3.jpg
I don’t really know how to upload videos anymore. I’ve been out of practice lately. Once I Can I will post the video of why I needed to drop the trans as well as a start up with the new turbo.
Side note:
I’ve begun tuning with VitViper again and will post how that is going. So far just from the second calibration the cars running extremely smooth at low rpm considering the things got a 90mm tb and a large centerfeed Intake manifold.
Lmk what you all think.
