ill have to see how all that works out. but i do plan to come down there to run some 10s.
mike is my tuner. but jo hasnt told me wether or not he wants CMB to tune it

Jo and CMB are hand in hand lol he always suggests it. But if its Mike (Soxfan) your in Good hands too bro that guy knows his SI ish!

yea, i was going to go down to there last year to get a tune and install the new trans but i ended up getting a tune from mike and holding off on the trans.
been working closely with jo on doing something crazy with the 8th gen since then.

I gotta say the TD does look alot like JOtech's mani lol
Did u have a crushed fpr?

Awesome welding by Jo - that's by hand IIRC, right? Jo never fails to do quality work :thumb:

I think a guy named Gato does the welding at Jo Tech

the TD manifold doesnt allow for the use of a air filter where as the jotech manifold does.. also a larger turbo can be used with the jo manifold.. they are similar in style but look at the 2 middle runners on the manifolds..
jotech mani= runners close together.
tda= runners further apart.
my TDA manifold made great power.. spooled good..and didnt creep.. the welds just didnt last it was crap.
as far as being hand welded it is hand welded by Gato who works in conjunction with jotech now.. alot of shops out source to welders for there manifolds and call them there own.
for example TDautowerkes uses FAB-WORX for alot of stuff but apparently not the 8th gen manifold

I'll be doing an update 2night. I have some really cool stuff to show u guys and some interesting ideas that should make for good debate.
04-16-2011

So i have a pretty cool idea for a fuel system.
i plan on using race gas and i do not like the idea of having to drain and refill when switching from race gas to pump gas.
so in order to get around all of that, im going to be using a 5 gallon fuel cell with 2 bosch044 fuel pumps for race gas use.
so here is how it will work.. there will be a fuel solenoid on the factory feed line and a fuel solenoid on the race gas line coming from the fuel cell... obviously there will be 2 switches 1 for each fuel system, there will be an arming switch for the fuel pumps and solenoid on the race gas system.
as for the return line.. there will be a return line going back to the fuel cell also governed by a fuel solenoid.
As i am sure that anyone who knows about fuel solenoids there are some that can stay open for an extended period of time and those that will burn out if they are open for more than a minute or so. i will be using custom made heavy duty plunger type solenoids.

Just to clarify, you won't have both tanks with gas in them at the same time, right? That's a decent amount of extra weight in the rear. If so, think about stiffer rear springs. Other than that, sounds like a good idea! Pics if you can

I'll just be using the fuel cell for 2 gallons at a time.
I'll get pics when I get it all together

got the car running...
i ordered a precision 6265 from jotech, after waiting a few months with no word of shipment.. no tracking number.. no nothing nothing nothing!!never got the damn thing!!(all precisions fault)... and precision has yet to send my 950 bucks back to me with 2.5 weeks on the clock.
my old downpipe doesnt fit very well at all (crammed against the exhaust well) .. but ive drove the car for a week or so.. on 6psi its pretty nice the 30r spools very nice and still has a hefty top end.
the car is at roberts imports in louisville KY right now have a new downpipe made and some new intercooler pipes... after that im gunna see how far i can get on pump gas.
so obviously my whole goal of making a 10sec stock motor 8th gen street/drag car are pretty much done with... my buddy took me to some track days at some track in surrounding areas and i pretty much got hooked... not really worried about drag racing anymore lol.
ive got some pics.. ill post them sometime.

Niiice! Was wondering where you went, welcome back :welcome: Post pics son!
Ive been DDing the car since early july..runs nice no problems. im only running 12psi right now but id like to see what it will do on 16 once it cools down a bit.
added a hybrid racing oil cap and a hybrid racing radiator hose kit. Next thing id like to do is finally get some nice wheels, i keep on not doing that lol

that evo was a ****ing mess and i HATED the interior.. im kind of a weird dude like little things just bother me to death and the inside of that car just started ****ing with my head.
so i love my 8th gen its plenty fast and it handles like a beast and they look so damn clean. i got banned from 8th because......
IMPORTdps made a thread in the supercharged section about the c38 rotrex 8th gen that dropped off the face of the earth made 350WHP!!! BEFORE THE LOW CAM!! (before vtec) which is mass BS.. they kept PMing me and hating and shit so i started shit back with them and i got perma banned for it.
as for my car, today i was headed to the drag strip to watch some buddies with EVOs run and my car started spewing oil out from under it.. knew it wasnt the engine so i was like DAMN there must be a hole in the transmission so i turned around and drove the the shop and threw it up on the lift and the axle seal was the cause of the leak so i pulled the axle. Turns out the donut that bolts to the block that is part of axle was ****ing broke in half and the transmission has been whining alot latley so ive been waiting for it to shread a gear well it looks like the LSD is done for so on monday (my day off) im gunna drop the transmission and get it ready for some new gears and synchros and a new LSD along with a new clutch.
other than that it runs awesome.. nice and smooth with great power all over.
i was used to the lag of the journal bearing 6076 which didnt even start to spool till 4000rpms.. my 30r is already starting to tear face at 4000rpms.

That importdps crap was such BS - they say 350whp on the low cam before vtec on the high cam.... :bsflag:
Glad to see you're back! Keep up with the posting slacker ;)

Hey man this build is sick! I plan on getting a gt3076r is that what u have? How many psi are u pushing? What whp are u making? I want around 400whp.
08-24-2011
fg2onboost
10-12 psi with a good tune will net you 400 EASY. i have no idea what whp im at currently, the tuning isnt complete yet but it makes 12psi right now and pulls hard as hell. ill probably stop at 16psi
08-24-2011
fg2onboost
350whp @ 4700 rpms before vtec is what Rick at importDPS said. i called them out.. they said OHH we never said that.. then i quoted the post they made and he said that i edited the post and had a mod delete the posts and close the thread.

well i decided that this car needs to be my daily driver and it needs to be fun and easy to drive so i switched to the 30r. ill never buy another precision first i had one go out on me.. then precision refused to give me any info as to why they had me waiting 3 months for my 6265.
i one day plan to build a dc2 with a k-series. ill for sure use a 35 or 40r on that car. lol

its like a metalic whinning noise like a little air compressor engine u blow a air mattress up with.

yea.. most likly an exhaust leak.
i havent heard anything good about the EFR yet. nor have i been impressed with anything they do.
yea there is that one guy who did the jotech efr that spools fast and makes good top end power.. but im willing to bet that doesnt nothing but spin.

You guys can say whatever you'd like about company's on this forum, don't worry about it. I wonder if we can get a complaint forum going, but I doubt it because companies will sue hardcore.

I would love to tell you my experience with JOTECH, but then I know that it would end up getting around to them so I just leave it to myself. All I gotta say is that from the moment that I picked my car up from them I'm still fixing problems that they did half assed work. I was told to not say anything on 8th because I would get banned from the site but it looks like it ok to say stuff on this site. But maybe if I sit down here for an hour or so I'll write up a review for you guys.
