midnite racer x : 1991 Accord LX

That's pretty slow for a gst, but once you up the boost it should be better. I pulled a 10.2 in the 1/8th with just i/h/e, cam so she could probably be doing better than a 10.5.

[MRX]

Yea i noticed when we raced from a 60 roll or so i would keep up with her for a couple of seconds...her turbo was completely spooled she said but i kept up. Since she's going to up the boost about 10 lbs. i think she'll break well into the 9's...she's a good driver, i taught her myself But for her to pull off a 10.5 on 4 lbs of boost says alot too, hella boost leak huh?

[Fearit22]

Yeah, that's pretty low boost. What is it supposed to be stock? I should be in the high 9's now too. That last run was when it was about 100 outside last summer and I've added a few things since then so...

With a few more mods she can safely run 14-15 psi. The 4G63 loves boost. My friend has a '91 GS-T with an Evo3 16G and 3" Thermal cat-back. Still running stock boost which is supposed to be around 11psi, and it runs so much harder than stock. Guess the turbo being fully ported with a 34mm wastegate flapper doesn't hurt

[MRX]

stock boost for her is 14 psi actually...and she corrected me tonight and said she got a 10.43 in the 1/8th lol.

My gauges should be in tomorrow, i ordered an OBX-R water temp, oil press, and oil temp gauge. Altogether it cam out to be like $90 shipped.

I got the polyurethane mix in last week and i just took out my motor mounts this afternoon. I should have the car back on the road by atleast saturday morning. I'm gonna bake the motor mounts at like 200 degrees throughout the day tomorrow.

I also ordered the wastegate gaskets, turbo flange gasket, and turbo to downpipe gasket sometime last week...slow ass shipping

still deciding on the manifold. But after i get the stuff mentioned above in the only things i will need will be a couple of hose connectors and the exhaust manifold gasket

[Fearit22]

Let me know how those motor mounts work out for you. I'm interested in doing that DIY mod as well.

just found this on ebay... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2469650030

Your are looking at a custom made T3 turbo manifold. It fits on a prelude H23a motor. It has a 35mm external wastegate flange and it fits a T3 turbo. No cracks, perfect working order. Relisting due to non-paying bidder. If you don't have the money, then don't bid.


hmmmm....its only $99 right now...hmmmm...and it will fit will it? not. I've only heard of you guys saying the h23 mani will bolt up to the f22. I've never done it myself. Need some opinions because if i can get a manifold cheap i can get an exhaust system also. Need feedback ASAP. Till then i'm keeping a close eye on this one

p.s. motor mounts still drying but are hard as hell so far

[PRIMOCB7]

should fit. i was able to use my dc header from the F22A6 onto the F22B. don't see why not.

[Fearit22]

That thing has 5 days left though. The price on it probably won't start going up a lot till the last day or so... that's just how ebay works.

[MRX]

i'll put out a max of $220 then and wait to bid...wish there was a buy it now ...but yea that bitch is mine

[allgo_allshow]

Hey guys, I'm the girlfriend.

When Antoine talks about me, my car, or anything.. don't listen. LOL He gets his stuff mixed up about me. He can remember his best ET, but not mine.

It is 10.43, and I'm boosting .43 bar. Which is about 6.06 psi. Yeah, I know I've most likely got a boost leak at the BOV (notorious for being there) and tomorrow after I get off of work, I'm going to install the MBC and start getting the stuff for a leakdown test. (Sorry baby, I know I've just jacked your thread.)

For 6psi, only 5 runs in the 1/8'th and street tires at a dirty as hell track, I feel that 10.43 is DAMN good. :-D

His project is part of my life, as is a decent chunk of MY paychecks have gone to his project

Just thought I'd drop by and clear stuff up.

midnite= :owned:

hehe.. nice to have another girl on here.. whose into cars and more so.. BOOOST.. nice to see that ur willing to put money towards his boost project .. its mutual im assuming...
well.. get the car up and runnning..

id like to see whos fasta.. when all is said and done..
your car at 14psi or the cb7 at 14psi

[Fearit22]

Sounds familiar. My girl has put a decent amount of money into my car too. So do the h23 manifolds really bolt right up? I never knew that ... then again I am really drunk right now ... fucking college parties pwn3d my ass

[MRX]

actually i don't remember her buying anything for my car...i mean she feeds me alot which in turn saves me money to put in the car but she's never actually bought anything for me besides tools. She offered to buy my s-afc but i paid for that too. I'm gonna get handed when she reads this lol. Wikked what do u think about that manifold?


just found this from tuningdepot.com...its for a h23 and it is $380. I think thats a generic pic because it seems to have 2 turbo flanges. They had the same pic listed for all the honda/acura/mitsu applications...seems like a good deal tho

[allgo_allshow]

Alright punk... water pump - 36.88 minus Tax.

Thats the only thing that you haven't paid me back for. I told you not to worry about it, and apparently you've completely forgotten. I still love you though, and I will feed you still

Tools and food are NOT included. I told you I take care of mine.
