Yea...I'd keep it stock and slam it...HellaFlush style. I haven't ever seen a G20 done that way but I think it'd be baller status I'd really like to see a beastly motor swap in one but again they aren't real popular so I haven't seen one built.

Anyway back to ur Sol...Lewy's lip completed his front end imo. Are there many options for Sols? I don't know jack **** about them lol and yes !!PLEASE!! replace the fenders

Good to see it running and everything. When you say tuned for 7-8 psi, had someone like Phearable make a chip for it guesstimating numbers?

And you should get the bumper moldings for Del Sol's. Unlike the SiR bumpers for ek's which have the moldings in an indent on the bumper, you just stick the molding on to a normal Sol bumper. They look really good. Only things I'd do to a Sol front are yellow inner lights/fogs, bumper moldings (rear too) and a lip. And it is all set.

Yeah its running REALLY good.
I just cruised everwhere with friends today for hours haha. So much fun to drive it. I was expecting a lot less from running only 7-8lbs.
definitely happy with the results.....for now

No it was street tunned on saturday morning, with CROME Pro, it took a little over 2 hours.
I was afraid it wouldnt stay together at first.. but after the first few pulls. i was like lets do this! haha

Yeah bumper moldings look pretty sick. definitely in my future lol
Im gonna do the yellow fogs. Next time i go to the junk yard im gonna look for a lexus es and get the yellow cylinders from their headlights and put em in my aux lights. I saved the DIY i found lol (would post link but its from out of this forum..).

I just cant decide on a lip haha.
I have till friday to find one i like. Friday's pay day haha

Good to hear that your boosted now. I must have completely missed that part of the build thread (went back and I see it now). Any estimate on numbers?

Estimate on numbers... Tunner said its probably around 165-175ish
He said he had the same set up i have but tunned to 11lbs. and got 191whp 160wtq. But there's a lot of factors that would change the outcome.. My guess would be like 160hp lol Im only tunned to 7-8. its probably like 7.5 haha

I have launch control set up at 4.2k (or 4k lol i forgot). i've only launched from a stop once so far... and all i smelt was clutch and rubber, 2nd gear is so much fun tho lol. I still need to work on my shifts/launches.
I have full boost by 3.7k.
Its definitely worth all the troubles i went through haha.
its a blast to drive.. specially when the sun is going down and your just cruising..
now the girlfriend wants her civic turbocharged too lol

I cant wait till i build my block and max out the turbo...and then get a bigger one... and maybe throw this one on the girlfriend's.haha

Hmmm the one in this pic (the same you posted before) looks a little lower on the bumper (like a 1/8 of an inch but still). Idk It looks okay but that one thing kinda bugs me for some reason ...
