yea im proly gonna neeed a new intercooler and i might even buy a new turbo but im not totaly sure...i dont wanna go spend like $700 or so on a greddy 24 intercooler....is there any cheaper but realiable intercoolers? someone told me my turbo is only good for 350whp but i thought i read about it and it said its good for 450whp...its the turbonetics t3/t4 ball bearing turbo that comes with the drag kit

 

You can use a Type 31. The 24 is HUGE... I don't even use the top 1/4 of the thing cause my bumper's in the way. :chuckles:

Here's what I'm saying:


My turbo's a Garrett T3/T04E 57 trim .60 AR sleeve bearing. You'd need to specify more abou the turbo to help determine what it can make. The only way to really tell is to throw it on and see what it does with the proper tuning and componenets.

 

yea that intercooler is huge....i actually had to cut my bumper in order to fit the intercooler i have now....i think my intercooler should be ok and my turbo should be fine to

what kind of maintanance do u have with ur car? r u constantly replacing parts?? someone told me that im gonna constantly be breaking things

 

I break axles now and then... but I'm still using NAPA OEM axles. :chuckles:

I haven't broken anything else though. I'm more aware of the lifespan of parts though. For instance, I'm changing the head gasket/timing belt/tensioner, bolt, spring/intake manifold gasket very soon. Going with a 6 puck clutch now too. If you build it right, you will be just fine when it comes to parts. Your tires will wear out faster.

 

how hard is it to replace an axle??

can i buy a more durable one that will last longer or should i just go with the oem honda one??

going to be starting to take stuff apart in about a month..going to be doin it at my buddies house hes a honda mechanic and he also is the guy who put on my turbo

heres what im purchasing in the next weeek
aem fuel rail
aem fuel presssure regulator
RC550cc or RC660cc injectors

 

gators are good axles..

 

would it be best to get 550 or 660cc injectors for about 375-400whp?

 

Depends on a lot of things. The higher compression that you go, the less injector you need. You can also go with a higher static pressure to lessen the load on your injectors.

If you don't want to get stuck at around 400 whp, I recommend going with a 650 (RC measurement): http://www.wiredspeed.com/itemdesc.a...%2D650&eq=&Tp=.

Axle replacement in a nutshell: https://www.honda-acura.net/forums/s...d.php?t=173647

Good axles: Gator (if you get the right 'stage'), Enjo, Raxles (so I've heard), DriveShaftShop, and a few more...
Be prepared to spend a pretty penny on axles though....

 

true story on spending some money on axles,..ive snapped a few DriveShaftShop axles,..im running Gators on one hatch and DriveShaftShop on the other

 

What #'s are you running man? I really need to bite the bullet and get some decent axles, but I would hate to spend that kind of money on some and get crap... input?
