sick setup bro that is quite an amazing ride and its was done right and tastefully. But bro, $5g's?? Man I wish you contacted me sooner I coulda hooked you up with the ss auto chrome XS power kit for about 1/4 the price. Checkout mine! I'll have more pix soon as I get my camera back from my friend.

XS Power t3/t04e 57 trim .50 ar comp. .63 turbine
XS power b-series manifold stainless+equal length tig welded
XS Power tial style wastegate @ 6psi
OBX FMu 8:1
Uberdata basemap
255lph pump
custom 2.5" downpipe
SRE 2.25" mandrel tig welded I/C piping
Custom 25x9x2.5" FMIC
Purosil couplings w/ stainles clamps
Greddy Type-S style BOV
Tig welded Oil pan
Tuner toys oil lines

This setup ran me about $1200 and it can make the same power as any turbo kit out there hands down. Im waiting on dyno time to back this up. More pix very soon. You have a very sick car man and I am VERY jelous, I have no Type-R but its close lol.

You got it Hatch Chick13! I might have to charge for each ride the way gas prices are. When you hit boost, you can just watch the needle drop. =(

fwd...turbo...how can that be cool?










hehehehehe...Very clean turbo setup. THe R with boost is always a nice platform of FUN! Vtec/turbo is an awesome ride. I can feel it in my accord...I cant imagine how it feels in a vtec teg. Very Very clean turbo setup...and you went the correct route by NOT buying anything from ssautocraps and XS(who provided me with a turbo that lasted less than 2k, and REFUSED to replace it). and...NICE NUMBERS!
