hey guys.. well i'm done w/ all the talk about me persuing it. So I finally shelled out the cash. PICracing turbo setup. Only difference is that i'm doing a t3/t4.

Now I wait for it all to ship in and get installed. Now we'll really see how even things get between 2.4's and 3.4's .. j/k..

hehe..

i'm just excited that i actually did the real first step.. so yeh..

anybody want a civic short ram intake? i'm not needing it anymore. :)

later folks

Dont worry about B, Rob...I know that I won't be able to beat you after the boost but at least I'll be in the middle of the totem pole. Brendon couldn't beat anyone in his car...:thumbs:

ROTFLAO!! oh man oh man... I'm telling ya guys.. we gotta all get together and freakin do stupid crazy stuff sometime. and gay is only in the eye of the homo..

Sik, I'm tellin' ya I'm considering thinking of a way to get some good juice out of your car... Get $1000 and we'll frakken do some hardcore headwork on your motor up in vegas. I know of a guy up here that does awesome work. :D

now brendon if you ever got rid of the woman for a lil while I could possibly consider offering you the same deal. Since the woman has her lips on your your wallet i can't.. :\ lol...

PICracing turbo header
t3/t4 TREVTEC is dealing w/ that part

See if you can get the Apexi switched to a different BOV. No offence but they are dump. My friend has one on his FD that he was selling and I was going to buy it. He told me I shouldn't and why so I got a HKS SS instead.

shipping on HKS is a pain in vegas.. Try getting one w/in under a month.. try it in vegas...

easy within reach and besides i'll live w/ it .. guys here seem to not have any problems w/ it.

Spy have you checked these guys out yet http://www.vizzionpower.com/ if you go to their web sight you can listen to that HKS SSQV blow if in action. This month in super street they showed an install of their stage 2 turbo. I am going to call for pricing tomorrow. They say that their stage 1 will put you at 200hp i am interested in the stage 3.

I heard that same bov on an eclipse i once drove and my friend's mr2 ... very very awesome sounding..

both the kits are very similar.. and easy 200hp to the wheels.. :) definately.

I plan on hitting 220hp w/ my setup .. daily.. mwahahaa..

Vizzion definately has a nice setup, very clean and pro.. I went w/ PICracing because I show much love to the man behind the kit. Plus he's closer to me and I have a sik fetish w/ APEXi products..
*shrugs* I also like TRUST's offerins as well...

stage 2 vizzion is like around $4g's so i've heard
