no one can do everything all by themselves. Who has a machine shop? If you do it right, you need a team of people working on your car that have experience, and have built race cars. Im proud to get it done by people that know bisi, the person that built the fastest N/A accord in the world. If that is somehow 'not the thing to do' thats fine with me. Id rather pay to have it right, then blow like 5 engines on everything-honda. Id rather be the one that has a working finished car.

Oh yeah, and an f23 is not a 2.3l engine, honda rounded up. Its really only 2.254l. Not trying to be an ass or nothin, honda does that to a lot of cars.

 

stinker knows wat he's doing and he will not blow the motor... and it's not like he has a shop.... he bought the needed equipments, and sent out whatever he couldn't do on his own which includes sleeving his block

it's cool tht u know the right ppl and have the money to pay them, but where's the fun in tht rite?

 

The crank was micropolished, and balanced, engine was blueprinted.

 

so is this going to be a show car??? looking at your sig, it has a lot of extra weight if going to be for racing

 

lol, wieght with 500hp, thats hella funny. Ill be lucky if i dont break the tires loose going 80. If i were to race it, i would probably do best in drag racing. I still want to get on a road coarse and see how it would do on that. But if i was seriously trying to break records, id probably have to put a smaller turbo in because those are more low-mid range power setups. Im not sure if its going to be a show car. For right now, its a DD. Im not sure if i want to go all out on the ex/interior. It would be nice someday, but its not really on the top of my list.

 

I like the way you think with that, and I very much agree. A lot of people think 'oh i'm gonna fix up my car nice and pretty' and spend thousands on paint and looks and body kits and lambo doors and crap like that, but when you look under the hood everything's corroding and about ready to die. Then you see a nice pretty car up on 22" rims on the front lawn next to the gnome because they didn't take care of vital components first.

 

wow i am VERY impressed...congrats so far and keep us posted

 

thank you, ill upload some newer stuff when i get the turbo installed.

 

yeah if you don't break the tires loose at 80 i would be suprised as well, my friends eclipse loses traction at 70 when boost hits, and he probably only has 320whp

 

looks awesome, can't wait to see the numbers for it
