intalled the IC today i mounted it a lil low and after about 4-5 times of mounting the bumper just to find out i had more to shave out i got pissed and cut a foot and a half chunk out...... oh well i plan on fabing on a lip this spring and painting my bumpers black so it will only be ugly as fawk for a few months. sorry for ths shitty pics but here they are.
tomarrow im gunna build the charge pipe from the IC to the TB ond hopefully a set of 4" round driving lights on either side of the IC to fill in the empty holes in the grill.
when i got the IC it was already painted so i had no choice so i repainted it to make it look a lil nicer. it does help for the sleeper affact but i have a feeling this littel turbo is gunna whistle realy bad so its gunna be tuff to hide the fact that the car is turbo'd. i think im gunna order the lip from jdmshit.com for the crx sir-g it looks like it will be easy to mod onto my bumper (I HOPE) because im not very good at body work if u cant tell.
well that lip might give you some troubles. i would find a cheap (junkyard) lip first and see how much cutting you'll need. so you dont trim too much from that expensive one
the whistling shouldnt be too much of a problem, it'll probably throw some people off, or get you some glances.
show us a step by step with that lip if you can, i know a lot of people have been trying to figure out how to put aftermarket lips on
small turbos give them selves away. when i had my pt67 on my integra u didnt realy hear it at all..... well atleast not a whiney high pitch noise.
to give u a good idea of what it will sound like go to this link http://www.homemadeturbo.com/media/media.php then scrole to the bottom and click onto " The Shitbox A6 aka Turbo Wagovan"
i remember that wagon!!!! one of the first to actually show a turbo'd wagon. i was drooling when i watched that video a while back. those launches were killer
how much power was coming from that wagon? what kinda power range were you going for....more info on your plans!!
i have no idea what that wagon was putting down but i bet mine will put down more i have a lil nicer parts. im shooting for about 200whp not a crazy amount but should make the wagon real fun to drive.
bling bling. sorry the car is dirty the roads are so nasty right now. cant wait to finish trimming the bumper add a lip and then repaint the moldings and side skirts...... oh ya its getting 35% tint soon!!! enjoy
Went and snapped some photos yesteday morning on my way to the autoX i did terrible my pax was killing me i think im going back into sm5 where there is no pax but im gunna need some some sticky ass race tires in order to contend in that class. anywho heres the pics
ya i know i need to get the dam lip on and re-paint the black parts of it so they look clean like the side modlings. im waitting till i re-do my charge pipes so i can do it all in one day.
well i finally put my lip on it sittin a lil funny on the drivers side because my cam charge pipe hits my bumper so untill i get a 90 degree elbow and run it through the core support im gunna have to live with it.
looks sick, i normally dont like brown , but with the wheels and body being lowered, i like it....yeah i had all the hole filled and the body shop extended the body line.
yep still boosted. another WA member dam were gunna have to start the wagon homebase here or something...... so do u realy have a boosted wagon or is that just your name? i say this because my name is turbo_teg when i dont even own an integra anymore let alone one thats boosted.
nope this sounds bad dont have a wagon yet but will soon cesar noes of couple for sale just need to go look at them because his cousin wants to buy my eg i need a fwd tho cuz i have a unfinished d series set up just need lil bit more money and she be booostn 25 psi .. don think the awd drive tranny will live up to 25 psi
As far as I know we ain't making the night run. I havn't had time to work on my car (peanut). I havn't even driven it since the last auto-x I went to. I'm stuck on the A6 swap. Look up my post on H-T under the crx fourm (D16 crank pulley).
