Monjarassi's 2004 civic si turbo build thread

Definitely working well! Since your bumper is shaped to expose the front mount, you'll get better cooling than 8th gen civics and RSXs. Our bumpers 1/2 - 3/4 of our intercoolers

My front mount takes up my entire bumper and my cooler covers any chance of air getting to my radiator. I will be needing another custom read this time most likely a 4 core rad with 2 decent sized fans.

yea thats true i tell ya..



wow now thats hot not to mention the water port and your rbc are hooked up together

Ya the majority of my intercooler was covered by my crash beam, I think that was the biggest reason. That and it wasn't too big. With my new setup I shouldn't have nearly as big a problem with IATs.

Ok well my new setup is a whole new kit and a whole new intercooler. I already know to an extent that it will be loads better as I have seen datalogs of this kit on the previous car in hot AZ weather. And I'm on the road. Got like 40 miles to go on my clutch break in!

The sti is your car too right? Which one is more fun, that or the ep3?

[monjarassi]

Yes the sti is my wifes n I's. Well the ep3 is funner cause it hauls ass but the sti is more rugged and sick from a dig!!!!

[aLmk]

Nice best of both worlds!

Was a slow night last night at the meet, whole bunch of merican muscle out there...
Got to race a c6 vette with a cam, bolt ons, tuned for n20, we assuming he had a 150+ shot on there, and my buddys 5.0 mustang with bolt ons, intake manifold, tuned and geard or diff, not sure what all they be doing.. Cut the story short the ep came home with a massive boost leak and was acting up while doing the pulls, it was as if it was missfiring while going up the powerband. Time to wrench..
