How it should turn out...
like i said, it's a D15b7, makes 138.7 hp @ the wheels. dyno sheet got ruined the same day cuz it was raining and i rolled the car out... and they neglected to tell me that they pinched it under the wiper blade. left the shop 20 minutes l8r, flipped on the wipers, and got dyno sheet shreads, mixed w/ blue & pink ink all across the driver's side of the windshield. lol, i felt dumb

I can't wait to see this done either. Personnally I would have gone silver instead of white and bought the silver flames out of the ground into the blue top. The important thing tho is that you like it. The impressive thing is you're only 17 and you're dong this yourself. :bowdown:
d15b7... somewhere between 92 & 102 hp stock. i've seen a bunch of different numbers. intake, header, test pipe, cat-back, exhaust, throttle body, port & polished head, few valvetrain upgrades. it runs w/ & often beats local teggy LS's, & older GSRs. stomps stock accords
(duh) it made 130-138, according to Kelly (guy who ran the dyno). it had a very short peak. but... it's all jacked up now... so i have some more motor work i need to do bad... my 02 sensor isn't even on the car, and it's running super rich.
87EBBronco, thanks. it should be heading for paint in about 1-2 weeks. i'll get pics really soon of the whole proceess in the booth & such. thanks

all of the primer on the main body is done. side skirts are damn near finished, and i'm starting my front bumper. i hope to have the entire body kit done by monday. after that... it finally goes in for paint. i may be able to finish painting in one weekend, then do the wet sanding/buffing over the following week. i'll update again soon, and include some pics of it all in primer.
only problem now is that i no-longer have a gas door (found it in the street crushed a week or two ago), and i need one of the bars to mount the rear bumper w/. it's coming together, L8r ya'll.

UPDATE!!!
well, this may be the week. my front and rear bumpers are both finished. all that's left is some little finishing things on the skirts. once it's done, it goes into the shop for paint. my dad and i both have a full week off, and are thrashing to get into paint.
if all goes as planned, it'll be in the shop Thursdayish.
after that, the fun part. maybe two days worth of paint work. my sub box is about ready for paint as well. all the fiberglass work on it is done. now its juss filler work along with primer & blocking work. then it's ready as well. i'll update by mid week. l8r ya'll
