Updated pics of my project HATCIE!!
Mason, you should get a 5th gen civic radiator, and then rotate the compressor so the outlet is pointing straight forward. That's how I ran it on my sol. Next time you're over, I'll pop the front bumper off, and you can take a look at my setup. I bet we can hook you up with a 5th gen radiator for about 25 bucks. Once you ahve that, you'll be getting way cooler air through it, and you'll be running a lot stronger. Heat=detonation...
I'm not bashing your setup at all, cause I've been there, and tried the same thing. But you ahve to remember, the colder the air, the more dense it is. And if you can cram more air in there, then you can cram more fuel in, and get more power out of it. If you want, maybe we can run to the junkyard and get a bogger IC that would would better with your setup!
Still, kudos on the work. I know the struggle of collecting parts, and then finally getting it running. It is all well worth the wait in the end.
