so the blue thing is the missing link under the black thing which is the map sensor check valve???

what do you guys think, should i just boost 9 or 10 psi first maxing out my stock map sensor for a start or should i jump straight with a better map sensor and raise the boost up to get to my desired 230 whp???

 

bump

 

Pics added to the first first

 

so i drifted my car and slid too far into a curb so my car has been out of commission for a while now.

I just finished fixing it and i had to replace both crossmembers, front and rear, both lower control arms on the right, the front right brake rotor, and my wheels cuz they cracked.

now that i have my car again, and have saved up enough money once again, I've started to piece together the rest of my parts. I just ordered an exhaust and conversion harness to obd1 and i should be all set to start installing and tuning.

I'm going to Dustin at Performance Porting to help me install the kit and then to PFI Speed for tuning with hondata s300

Once the two parts i ordered come in, i'm going to start right away, this way i can be done before i have to start school again in january.

 

wth, why did this thread show up when no one posted on it?

 

he bumped it why idk ? lol who knows

 

i posted an update, do you not see it??

and added pictures to the first post

 

o lol my bad I was looking at the date when he joined and thought that was how old the thread was....

never the less it will be interesting to see how the ebay kit works out. Keep us updated and take lots of pics.

 

A bit of advice:
Don't use the ebay boost controller.
I wouldn't trust that boost controller... you don't want your boost to spike. Get a used turbonetics boost controller on eBay, this guy is selling a butt load of them for $35 shipped.


get a motorola 2.5bar map sensor from Phearable.net, they're only like $35.

for spark plugs I think you need NGK BKR7E, gapped to like .028-.030
