Woah! Nice! Mine looks great so far! I know he does great work so you'll love yours.

I installed my Stage 2 PuddyMod built diff today. It sure is awesome to have access to a lift and power tools.

 

Definitely man, I want to check your nasty civic when its all done also!

 

Shortblock is done, head should be done this week.

Turbo kit is shipping this week. So i'll have LOTS of pics here to come. Keep your eyes peeled everyone.

Also, in other news. I sent off my OEM ECU to be modified by Hondata for Boost Control. I was thinking of limiting boost in 1st and 2nd gear to 10psi, then in 3rd rolling up from 12-15+psi by redline. The idea is to be gentle on the transmission and ease into it to benefit low speed traction as well. What do you guys think of this plan?

 

I agree 100%. I'm actually gonna do the same thing. Already bought a mac solenoid. Whoo hoo

 

Hmm,
makes me think twice about getting a used Kraftwerk, out of warranty...

 

imo, I would do full boost in 3rd and on. @ 500whp getting everything in 3rd is so much fun with a good set of summer tires.
On your race gas tune tho I would do the progressive boost in 3rd.

 

Cool thanks for the advice EternalLX. I will do that!

 

This setup is the real deal
As for sound with turbo compared to your previous KW setup, it will be much more quiet with a turbo.
If you flow alot through your WG at high power, the car will sing anyway.

I use a homebuilt exhaust with 3 "straight through" mufflers (One short thick 3" and then two 2,5" endmufflers) and WG routed into the exhaust.
It is quiet and does not drone at all during regular driving.
Still got a great scream when giving it a go. (I am using a gt3076 with tubular manifold)

 

Sweet! Should be a good build! Can't wait until all our builds get completed this spring!

 

here is an Asura Design modified 06+ intake manifold. It gained 14whp @ 10psi. We'll see how well it performs @15psi. this is the only photo I have at the moment. more detailed pics to come later.
