given what its got done, im aiming for 130whp considering it has around 100 from the factory. once its broken in, my turbo comes in the picture:thumbup:
im still torn between which fuel i want to tune it for, 87 gives me decent power, but with 91 i can advance quite a bit more. |

Is it going to be your daily driver? Gas might be up at $1.50 this summer. I can't wait to see the turbo in there, you built the block for turbo right?
kwan- Clean accord, You should get a front lip for it! Which engine do you have in it? btw: are those JDM headlights? You can make them super clear with plastic polisher paste (look for them at canadain tire) |

itll be mainly a daily driver during spring/summer, but if it gets rear ended and written off during winter, i could really care less because of the payout i will be getting.
the block is built more or less for NA use, but since i will have complete timing control, a turbo is just a stone throw away.
funny thing about buying stuff for the car is that for me to pay someone to remove 2 O2 sensors from a stock manifold costs more then an aftermarket manifold, and an aftermarket exhaust is cheaper then paying someone to fabricate one for me. so i kinda got the best of both worlds there as i originally planned to use OEM parts for break-in |
|
|
| chu77 |
| yeah i know what you mean, instaling your own parts are way cheaper. |

|
|
| chu77 |
your best bet is to custom build you own turbo kit, save at least $1000.

|
|
| chu77 |
| Hey kwan- I have a nice 2000 bmw 323i if your interested? Did insurance pay you back for the CD5? |
|
|
| kwan |
| well stupid me when i first got the car i got one way cause its a 94 it was nothing new so no point paying that 1000 deductible and my car wasnt worth that much on the market so i had one way.... the only coverage i got from my insurance is just physio but i dont mind cause the chick that massages me is kinda hot hahhaha..... but nah im looking more into a tl-s or maybe the new accords hehehhe |
