Well, good luck mate, at least its not a cheapy ebay kit
What sort of management are you going to use, and are you doing any upgrades to the bottom end? Turbo conversions to std engines / pistons / con rods always seem to end with a bang
You'd know all about engines going bang innit chewy :rolleyes:
The only car thats ever let the motor go in a big way was a hire car!
just a note
the kit has arrived but i am awaiting a pic of all the items
on the piston note i have done some looking into this and i found that the pistons are forged but the con rods are not the garage are going to bear this in mind when its set up and have offered a 12 month warranty on work done also if the pistons should melt they will replace them at no cost to me.
i must point out though that i have done some work for garage owner on his computer setup.
the bonnet vent is being done frist week of the easter holidays and i am thinking of having the bonnet sprayed black.
i am told by the garage that the management system is a piggy back system.
black...hmm..old skool jap...go for it i say
bonnet is booked in to do on the 21st march and the car will going into the garage to have the turbo kit fitted on the same day
i am going to try and do a boot install in resin it can only go wrong i will have to take some pics
only have my phone to do them as some thug stole my camera.
i think i saw you yesterday around 4 on the motorway by asda, was this u or am i seeing things, looked nice in person btw if it was u !
yes i was on the motoeway yesterday around that time on my home from work so its possable its was me was i singing
its a habit i have...
pmsl, well thank god i couldn't here you over the droaning of my diesel van chugging away, as i said though nice motor bud, i hope you do tasteful things to it and keep it lookin nice
all i have planned is:
bonnet scoop from evo 6
rear lower valance
vortex air spoiler for roof
turbo kit with innercooler
gauges x 3
boot install
finish the colour codeing on the inside
and i have some neons to fit but not too sure about them.
i have been offerd some wheels which i like they are new let me know what you think thay are 15inch but i donr what big wheels any way...

ps i only have 14inch on the car now
Nice but i think 15" might be a bit to small
Some pics from Cruisewirral March meet.
Nice looking motor - reminds me of the later Civic Coupes
...needs bigger wheels and lowering though...
hmmmm, not sure i like the 15's mate, too small, i will cast my honest opinion after she is lowered, i think bigger tyres would be better though if your goin to leave it on 15's
i have managed to get a rear strut brace upper and lower in carbon the lowering kit should be here next week cleared customs today.
i am going to order a front strut brace and front canards not sure when it will get done but should handle a lot better.
Saw this the other day on the A41 by carlett park college i was heading towards eastham, you where going towards Bromborough, stands out, looking good.
cheers m8 i like to make a statment

Good stuff matey
IIRC you are on a std engine though arnt you? Im pretty sure they will go easy on the boost level if you are running std compression.
What injectors did you go for in the end BTW?
