water wetter is pretty good....there's some stuff out there called stops overheating I think. Its made by ProBlend, its pretty good. What do you think about plumbing a couple of ram style scoops from your foglight holes in your lower valence? It would improve the flow w/out taking anything from your stock look.

Well crap

I just found out why trever(the other Z6 swamped crx) got that motor for such a good price.

Cly #2 = 60PSI all the rest are around 150 PSI. Hes pissed off.

The car feels strong and pulls really hard with no smoke at all. Idle is rough but no smoke and theres no water in the oil and no oil in the water.

I'm thinking bent rod. Possibly a cold air intake used as a straw...

Vtect = Vtec turbo. I was bord one night anf found my damaged CRX Vtec decal so I made the Vtect decal.

I was wondering that too man
but cool haha v-tect

most people don't even notice it. but I think its better than putting a turbo badge on the back.

From the back or sides you can't tell its as powerful as it is. Just looks like a stock lowered crx with acura rims. But then you see the front bumper.

I would run it

I'd kill it. Just got my 240 back from the shop with a new ECU (and they fixed the TPS. Apparently that's why it was bogging so bad). The thing is wicked now. I've got 14 psi of boost right now (~250 hp), but when I upgrade to NISMO injectors later on, I should be able to push about 18. I'm going to try and hit the strip this Friday, so I can get some new numbers.

Well just got home and I'm about to hit the garage and try to get my fuel pump replaced so I can make it to the Gainesville Ga meet. Also got my 180* oil line and a missing link for my map senser.

Also went to a persons house today and this is what he was building in his garage. Its uses a fully built ford focus motor and has 11" brakes all around. Its was absolutely the coolest street legal car I've seen in person.

That looks pretty cool.
