Rep Power: 0 I will dyno it. RPM of NY estimates 300-350whp at 8lbs of boost. The pistions and rings and rods have been changed to handle a little extra boost.
TMRakip: thanks for the comment. And you are right. If it looks fast than it better be. I really like seeing people in CT driving in 01 civics with their body kits with all the stickers saying AEM,Turbonetics, Custom Creation and they think it's fast. So much fun getting a race on with those dudes. They look and by the time they blink I am in 3rd gear at 80mph at 8,000 rpm and all you here is that big o JDM motor opening that vtech WAAAAAAAAAAAAA. Now with the turbo everone it's going to be insane. droping to 3rd gear is gona cause a smoke show on the high way.
SPOON: As for your comment 2nd place was an 01 civic with a type-s converion with orange paint. He is a good friend of mine.

Rep Power: 269 To each their own... great work on the engine + turbo. Nice screen layout.
Though I don't like the choice of blue, it is definitely unique. Your decision to paint the grill and interior like that is as well, unique. Personally I think I would have gone with a blue and black theme, but then again - that car is not mine (though I wish it was). Couple of questions would be - does the interior dash paint color match the exterior color or does it just look lighter in those pictures? The choice of rims bewilders me .. how come you didn't decide to continue the blue and white theme with white rims?

Rep Power: 0 Cocky, I just saw the pics of your of car and there were people at the show that had cars that looked just like yours nice and clean and guess what, well if you are smart you know whats next.
BOTTOM LINE IS: Your car will never surpass mine as far as speed or power. Just isn't gonna happen. IT'S ALL ABOUT WHAT IS IN THE INSIDE. I have fun destroying other civics on the highway that look like yours and white guys pretending they are black.

Rep Power: 0 JanLop. Thanks for your comments they are much appriciated. The interior is not paint. It is wrapped by www.stitchcraftinteriors.com the color is lighter in the pics.
Also for the rims. The car used to be silver and I have been so focused in the motor work I have had no time and the extra money for rims since it was dedicated to the motor and turbo. I will be changing the Car to black and going with gunmetal rims with a machined lip. Again thanks for your comments. People that are NOT COCKY is what makes these forums a great place.

Rep Power: 286 sorry that your car is ugly. don't get all hostile on me because everyone says it looks like ****. and as far as how fast it is, it's a Civic.. it'll never be that fast. Civics aren't meant to be fast, and to be honest, i don't give a **** if mine is slow or not.

Rep Power: 0 Not everyone says it looks like ****. Your right Civics arn't meant to be fast but it's a HONDA so it can be. Again, a Civic that is going to be fast. That is the problem, people go oh... it's only a civc nothing to worry about. Yet those guys in their 60,000 BMWS are getting wipped on the highway and yeah by a civic more like a "HONDA". I don't consider it a civic. They still can't belive it's a civic and I say no IT'S A HONDA not a civic. Maybe that gets the point accross.

whats with the hate?
anyways mad props on the swap and the doors...dont dig the color but i guess u can use it as a sleeper...cuz ppl would think its rice even tho its a swap...
i would go with lowered compression ratios to 9:1 than using a cybernation stage 3 turbo kit on it...30 psi max on the turbo and would get u about 500 hp
