Default It Lives!!!

Well, my car has been down for almost a month, but today it once again lives. Spent about 15 hours today putting it back in, and doing the first break in run. The car seems to be running great, will be geting in on the dyno by wednesday most likly. Only few things left to iron out, couple of bolts wernt tightend and fell out during the first ride :uhhok: but there easily replaced and nothing major. its also slinging a code 22, something about VTEC pressure or something. Ill keep you guys posted on the dyno results

Good stuff. Glad it runs without much of a hitch. Did you start it just as I instructed you to?

pull ecu fuse, crank the motor to get oil flow, then replace fuse, start the motor and let it run till the fan cuts on twice. Then let the car cool for 10 minutes. Then take it out and follow one of the many break in instructions, i used the one posted by westcoast, and everything seems to be going pretty well. Just talked to the dyno and im good go in anytime this week, just gotta wait till my tuner gets back to me and it will be time to crank up the boost

Good to hear. Did you clear up the CEL problem?

I wouldn't run any psi until it gets tuned.
