I have no car right now But I'm at law school in champaign illinois. They have really good public bus transportation, plus my girlfriend lives here and she has an 01 civic that she drives me places, or I drive it. So I'm okay right now without my car. I just want it back more than a need it back.

I'm learning patience

 

????????

 

What? more problems?

 

nope, same ol. still waiting

 

Alright, talked to the shop today. I am finally off the back burner. They have someone working on it today. And I'm really thinking I'll the car back and running next week.

They don't think it's the MAP sensor or a wiring harness issue. So, they don't know what it is, but they should be able to figure it out soon. Either way, whatever the issue is, it should be resolved early next week.

I'll post when I know what the issue is or have it back or something.

 

Great news! The car is running good. On the base map. The ridiculous thing is that all it boils down to is that the intake pipe wasn't completely on the turbo intake, it had come off. Which essentially causes the MAF to get bad readings and the car to run like poo. So now it is running good. They are going to weld up my cut exhaust pipe. Then I am going to have them tweak tune it at 8 or 9 psi. I don't think I want to go to 10 right away. Should I?

I will be picking it up Friday! Then I will surely take some videos. And Saturday I will put some time into mounting my gauges well. (they are just hanging around in the passenger compartment right now.

I'll keep you all posted.

 

good luck with it. i've been keeping an eye on this one for a while just cuz it's a brand new civic so i thought it wouldn't have that much support yet. what kind of power are you looking for?

 

It depends on how high I set the turbo. If I go with 7 psi, I will be hoping for like 210 hp and 190 tq. I'm thinking of doing 10 psi. So like 230 hp and 205 tq. We shall see though

 

sorry you prolly already answered that and this next one too. what kit did you go with from procivic?

 

TSI kit form procivic for the R18 motor.
