Re: Install Day 16 (Pg 32) Rad hose fixed - Speedfoos' Turbo Install
Possibly tomorrow. Depends on how long it takes me to change out the injectors and WG spring. I can just hook it up to momma's truck or the Rubi with cables so the battery doesn't drain out.
I'm looking at 3" mandrel bends and straight pipe right now for my new exhaust. If it runs and can pass smog right now with this setup, I'll get it officially inspected toot sweet, then ditch the cat and run a full 3" setup with my current muffler.

Listen Steve, Mr. I'm-too-much-of-a-pussy-to-sleeve-an-engine-using-a-CO2-cartridge-and-my-oven-so-I-had-to-have-Chris-do-it. I don't want to hear any lip out of you.
My radiator elbow arrived today (finally) so I'm off to fit that now!

man clint, i would have given up on autozone a week ago, they suck at everything, their salespeople know nothing, and their parts a junk, u can always rely on summit, except if u have an lx and u want exhaust peices without switching to ex... otherwise they are great and have great prices
god i sound like an advertisement, anyway, good luck clint, smart choice on summit

IM BOOSTED!! i started working on it at around 430 today, finished around 7. My welder couldnt come out and finish my midpipe, so Im running open down pipe until then.. hopefully the exhaust gets buttoned up tomorrow, return fuel system needs to get done and rsx-s injectors have to go back in. Give it about a week and i'll be set for tuning. W00t..God i missed boost...it's been too long.. i cant even flog the fucker, but just knowing that that snail is in there ready to spin up some power fills a void in my soul. I still have a shit ton of cleaning up to do though.. blah.

man i want boost, 'expletive' a kswap... boost sounds like a much more rewarding challenge.. so ur gona start it up without the belt clint? or did i miss that.. again.
Re: Install Day 16 (Pg 32) Rad hose fixed - Speedfoos' Turbo Install
No problem Steve, I was just funnin' anyway. I really doubt it's possible to sleeve a block with CO2 and a kitchen oven.
Good on ya Edwin! I'm so close I can't stand it. Been playin NFS Underground, just because you can drive a Civic in it! I pretend like it's my car. It's really quite sad.
Yeah Adam, I should have went with Summit right away but was ordering some parts for momma's truck too. Autozone had always done me right in the past. This time they did me dirty. No more.
Depending on what time I get out of work and how long it takes me to swap the injectors and spring out, I would like to start it tonight - without the belt. I'll just hook it up to momma's truck and use her alternator by proxy to charge my battery for a little while.

Re: Install Day 16 (Pg 32) Rad hose fixed - Speedfoos' Turbo Install
Just got home. Looking for the power cord for the camera. I'm going out to start this bitch. STR-4 injectors, WG spring and all that other stuff can wait.
My next post in this thread should be a YouTube video.
