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
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

I love the shit out of my new turbo blanket. I get excited about that dumb trivial stuff.

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.
Now my issue is with my kpro. It will not allow me to connect to my laptop and am in contact with hondata about my issues as I've tried everything currently available on the web besides trying it in another car.
I'll have to get Damelio into gear with the pics. She's slacking. Lol

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
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
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".
Car made 562hp with it off. So all in all the filter is doing pretty well. Flowing enough Ect.
Out goes the pump gas and in goes the race gas. 2- 5 gallons of Q16.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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!
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.
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.
