    550whp or bust!

    Hello all! I have been on this site for well over a year and never made a car build. I got bored so i'm starting one for my second build up of this car!!!

    I apologize in advanced, i don't take many pictures of my car, i will take more this time around!

    The day i bought the car in march 2011:



    I'm the skinny dude in the pictures
    When i got this car the only thing i wanted was to get the HFP lip and fog lights
    I thought this car was plenty fast when i got it!
    I finally caught the modding bug and bought the Corsport short shifter and cable bushings and a new knob and red stitch shift boot

    Sorry for the bad picture
    This is where the modding took off
    Bought at CNT catted race header, injen intake, and flashpro

    Next was a HFP suspension

    And I cleared my headlights


    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Wasn't long before i was bored and wanted more power...
    I sold my second car 2004 eclipse gs, i kept it because it was hit while parked, i got screwed on insurance and decided to fix it myself...in the mean time i bought a new car.
    Used it to buy a JRSC setup!
    JRSC - bought from another member
    CNT header
    Injen CAI
    Hondata flashpro
    Em1 CMC
    Merc racing aftercooler
    3in pulley
    Hondata 4bar map sensor
    RC650 cc injectors
    Full race exhuast
    Tuned by Evans tuning


    Also installed Em1 CMC and had a horrible time bleeding it!

    And had to get an exhaust! thought id get the "quietest one"

    Full race beside stock pipe

    Merc racing remote fill


    Merc racing aftercooler

    Kit installed:


    Guages:


    OH yeah! I finally got fog lights! But still no lip like I originally wanted :think:



    ************************************************** ***********************************
    I never got that setup dyno'ed
    I only had it for 3 months before a deal presented itself!
    Straight trade for my JRSC, aftercooler, header, and exhuast to get a jo-tech turbo kit
    Full turbo build specs:
    Jo-tech turbo kit
    Pt 62/62 turbo with a .68 ar
    2.5in charge piping w/intercooler rated at 650
    Go power 1k injectors
    Hondata flashpro
    4bar map sensor
    DW300lph fuel pump
    Tial wastegate
    Tial BOV
    Em1 cmc
    Competition state 4 clutch
    3in downpipe
    Q300 exhaust
    HFP suspension w/ sportline springs
    Buddy club camber arms
    Ingualls front camber bushings
    Dyno:

    Some pics of the kit!




    10an Oilpan bung welded on!

    Turbo mounted for the first time

    Oil drain on

    Because I had to trade my full race exhaust, I had a crappy skunk 2 for a month!

    Only took one month to replace this ridiculous piece of garbage!

    Got a q300!!!

    :sadbanana: Unfortunately my turbo’s oil seal blew, I had to take the whole sub frame down again and replace it :sadbanana:
    O well I rebuilt the turbo myself! I like to learn new things

    FMIC:


    Everthing was going great until my tires started to spin while tuning! So I bought hancook v12s
    The day I installed them I went for a nice ride, and slipped my clutch because the tires gripped better! I knew it was a matter of time on the stock clutch!
    Dropped the subframe sorry for the bad picture!:

    Transmission off, to the left is the stock clutch!


    Engine without the tranny and a good turbo shot!



    I ended up installing a Competition stage 4 clutch!
    I finally did some cosmetics to my car, got springs, projectors, and the HFP lip
    .



    I also installed a pioneer navi!

    How my car looked


    On the dyno:

    Didn’t have this set up before I got bored again and decided I wanted to part with the car and start something new!!!
    I posted everything for sale!

    WHELP! After talking with some people around me and on 8thcivic I decided against it, unfortunately I sold a lot of parts…but I still had most of them!
    I will reserve the next post for my next big power build!

    Awesome build! Glad you finally made it. You'll definitely need some new tires again, but this time I'd suggest a 235/40 minimum. Keep us updated, the build looks very promising!

    Great build but I would ditch that Q300. I had the same thing and it just a bit to small for turbos. Also why did you pick 9:1 compression ratio?

    That ratio can be good for boost, allowing him to run more timing and boost. Also the whole motor was for sale on the 8th for a very good price and very low miles.

    Sub'd and good luck! Along with Si speed I suggest 235/40 tires you can fit them on your stock wheels. I love my star specs, so I'd definitely recommend.
