    ★ Russianred's Turbo Build Thread! ★ *UPDATED 4/15* ★

    Re: ★ Russianred's Turbo Build Thread! ★ *UPDATED 3/4/12* ★ If your turbo was a twin scroll, you would want the runners to be divided all the way to the flange in order to keep the exhaust pulses separated so the cylinders fire rhythmically into the turbo. Here's what a twin scroll manifold...

    PRICE REDUCED! *Apple iPad 2* - 64Gb - Verizon 3G - SquareTrade Warranty

    Absolutely! I take care of my devices, then sell and trade up when the new model comes out. I'm just a little behind with this one. :)

    Thoughts on kumho Ecsta le sport?

    The Michelins don't have to be imported to Canada, the Continentals do.

    Thoughts on kumho Ecsta le sport?

    While we can all agree that Continental makes a great tire, I think it's already been well established that they are above the OP's budget. OP, if I were you, I would opt for one of the Kumho's that were previously mentioned. Just because the Michelins are a good price doesn't mean you're...

    Thoughts on kumho Ecsta le sport?

    I'm not saying they don't have good treadwear, are pretty quiet, or not reliable. For a calmer driver in an economy car, they might be perfect. Compared to the higher-end tires I'm used to, they have terrible turn-in response, poor dry traction, and are on the verge of being un-safe in wet...

    Thoughts on kumho Ecsta le sport?

    From my experience with Nexens, I can only recommend them if you need a cheap tire that's available locally to replace one or two damaged tires until your original tires have expired. I would never recommend them as a new set. There are simply much better options available for similar prices...

    Thoughts on kumho Ecsta le sport?

    I probably should find the time to do that, huh? I believe the 960 has been replaced with the 970 which appears to be a contender for my top spot. For the price though, the Continentals are going to be VERY tough to beat.

    Thoughts on kumho Ecsta le sport?

    Qualifications: I'll go ahead and say that I'm probably a true tire whore. I'm always trying something new and looking for the next best thing when it comes to true performance per cost. I've always relied heavily on Tirerack.com's user reviews and their formal tests. Some of the one's I've...

    Going for a re-tune.... (Round #2) Updated 10/28/13

    Re: Going for a re-tune.... Remind me again, you're using two pumps to supply enough flow for E85? What injectors are you running?

    Ulev f23a4 ecu question

    They don't even 'need' the ECU, unless you don't have the VIN from the car it came from. A Service Center can technically take an existing key, copy it, then program it using the VIN from the ECU alone. You probably don't have the VIN for your ECU, so obviously they will need the ECU itself...

    Manual Transmisison Leaking

    This. Fluid shouldn't be leaking from there from from splatter, and if the fluid level is sitting that high up, the tranny is over-filled. Clean everything you can and check it frequently. I doubt it's even from your tranny. My guess would be from the distributor where it enters the head or...

    Mods for my CG?

    It's a fairly simple conversion if you have someone who knows Honda wiring and actually understands how each sensor/wire does. You don't need the ignition though. Sell that and get an adjustable cam gear. If you want to go a step further, you can mill the head .030" to bump compression. You...

    N/A to FI: AFAccord's 10:1 Comp Turbo F23 Build Thread/Restoration

    Semi-small update for today... Pushed the car out of the garage today for the first time in weeks. Spent all day organizing my parts and clearing out the utility closet to make room for the engine hoist since I don't expect to need it for a while. Between cleaning, I took breaks to further...

    Instrument Cluster Compatibility

    Your tach will be off since it will be seeing 6 pulses per revolution rather than 4 that it's calibrated for. Unless you just wanna see your V6 spin up to 9k rpm. :naughty:

    AFAccord's *Boosted* 400+hp F23 Accord Coupe EX-L

    Re: AFAccord's 2000 Accord Coupe EX All Honda TB's are basically the same with the few exceptions from K, J, L, and the occasional F. I DO NOT recommend the S2 TB, and 70mm is extreme overkill anyway.

    JDMCG3's N/A H22 Build (Last Update: 03/12/2012)

    Re: JDMCG3's N/A H22 Build (Last Update: 02/15/2012) Swap out your main bolts with new OEM ones. These bolts are not TTY like the head bolts, so they can be reused a couple times. The ARP studs have a much higher clamping force, and therefore oval out your main bores. You'll have to spend...

    Re: JDMCG3's N/A H22 Build (Last Update: 02/15/2012) Why do you want ARP mains? Do your main caps not match your block? I hate to be the asshole, again... but there has to be some voice of reason here if anything is to get accomplished. Most of this build is running in circles because you...

    Re: JDMCG3's N/A H22 Build (Last Update: 01/23/2012) Only as stiff as your teeth can handle. You're not going to be making much torque, why do you think you want the stiffest ones available? Like what was already said, it's a risky purchase. You don't know how well balanced it is after...
