BoostedCivicZex · 10-29-2003

i like how it saids, " hx owners, contact for more info" hahaha, that was one long install lol.

Catalyst · 10-29-2003

you cant rush prototyping!

EnProceso · 10-29-2003

how much of a help is the alcohol injection? i know it helps prevent detonation and lets you up the boost but how much more boost can i run (with stock internals) with the AI? if it makes a noticable difference, put me down for one!

Catalyst · 10-29-2003

The alcohol lets you run about 4 psi more. I usually only recommend 6-7 psi on the base kit, and you can go as high as 11 with the alcohol.

aznboysrfr · 10-29-2003

can you "run out" of alcohol to inject? (newbie here) ...

if so, how can you obtain more ... ??

Got Boost??? · 10-29-2003

^ thats a good question

Obviously you can run out but im wondering what happens when you run out and you aren't aware of it? Do you start detonating to hell or is there a fail safe?

StLVtec · 10-29-2003

Hey SFpower or Catalyst when do you think you will be
done with the turbo for the k20 swapped cars, I want to
get mine boosted

Catalyst · 10-29-2003

yes, you can run out of alcohol. And the car will start detonating if you hit the high boost. That is why you have to be aware of where your alcohol level is.

Also, the K20 turbo project will be completed soon. That car is going to SEMA next week.

StLVtec · 10-29-2003

Nice you are gonna mass produce the kit right. And ballpark figure how much, you think around the same as the civic

MadWheel · 10-29-2003

This sucks I just spent an ishload on this kit.

jwcardy · 10-29-2003

Two words my friend - credit card!

jwcardy · 10-29-2003

some more words, not a big enough limit

ironcow · 10-29-2003

what are the specs with the larger turbo, for 100 more im all about that

Catalyst · 10-29-2003

The normal turbo is a basic ar.48 exhaust, .42 intake

The upgraded turbo is a modified super 60.
ar.48 exhaust, .60 intake with a super 60 trim turbine.

civic01vtec · 10-29-2003

question.......here it says that the equal length manifold is $150 extra and in another thread it says that it comes with the base kit of $2900......so, does it come with the base kit or do we have to pay extra for the equal length manifold ?

Catalyst · 10-29-2003

The equal length manifold is not included in the base kit.

VRoomPSHeRt · 10-30-2003

is the turbo a safe and reliable kit? im serious about getting it, as long as i kno my engine will last me. ill proly have to replace my clutch too. would i need a turbo timer?

VRoomPSHeRt · 10-30-2003

basically, im tryin to say that my car is a daily driver, and i need it to be reliable. haha

EnProceso · 10-30-2003

keep it at a low and safe boost level 4-6psi and keep up with maintence and your engine will last longer than you own the car most likely. you dont "need" a turbo timer but it will help prolong the life of the turbo so its a good idea to have one.

futurersxswap · 10-30-2003
