Pictures of EVERYTHING! (56k... in your dreams)
Here are some pictures of my car. Since they have all been spread out across many threads and tons of pages, i thought i would put them all in 1 place.
This is the progress of my car in the past year. All the work was done in the garage at my parents house (i dont have a garage
)Enjoy.

Rep Power: 261 yea, i LOVE TiAL products. Uncanny quality.
Which picture are you talking about?
And yes, they are pep-boys. I got em for xmas. $230 after tax for all 4. I think it was a good idea! And they are a shitload lighter than my 17" Tenzo Shu-4's. I put my old 17's on my wifes civic. Mine are 15's. I want to be able to buy 6 more rims. I need 2 for my Slicks for drag racing, and 4 more for some Kumho ecsta V-711's for running at willow springs.
But all that comes later on. When i have more money. I am sooooo incredibly broke now. I only have like $350 left in my turbo fund.

Rep Power: 261 Thank you!
I have a lot of stuff hidden in the pictures. Like you can see my Mallory Fuel Pressure regulator mounted to a bracked on my tranny next to my intercooler piping.
But yea, i have the Tial 44mm wastegate and the Tial 50mm blow off valve.
44mm wastegate was $350, BOV was $200

Rep Power: 261 thank you!
Everything that is custom on the car, i built. I have an incredible amount of time and effort into this car. I have been working on designing and building this motor and turbo system since March of 2005. I have crower rods, Custom Arias pistons, custom rod bearings, worked-over crank, etc. A TON of work has gone into this thing. And i think it may actually all be worth it when i finally get to drive it under 30 psi of boost.

Rep Power: 258 Can you tell me what exactly did you do to your engine. Is this a D17 non-vtec? Have you dyno'd it yet? You said you are turboing it right? So with the engine mods you have done, what kind of boost can you handle and what kind of HP numbers will you be at? Did you also port and polish the head?
I have been wonderin gif anyone has done anything to the D17 non-vtec and what they are capable of pulling for HP #s with piston, camshaft, etc engine mods done.

Rep Power: 261 Yea, im making it all hidden still.
Also im running the 4 stock injectors for non-boost conditions, to keep my fuel mileage up where it should be. But then i have my 590's for boost conditions to make sure i have enough fuel.
I have the D17A1 built bottom end, with the vtec head. The head is ported a little. Just some slight improvements over the stock head. I am looking for 400 whp when i get everything all situated. Im trying for about 300 whp by IDRC on April 8th.

.........lol jk. I hope you get all the numbers you hope for just so I can brag about it. If you hit 400 i will consider bowing in your presance lol that is if you come up to sac. My question if you can tell it is smog you have hidden unwanted looks but wtf happens at smog time. This question has kept me away from modding newer cars(engine wise). Either way good job on what I have seen so far! I cannot wait to see a vid and yes I will save it to show all. Also what intake are you running??

Rep Power: 261 I will be posting more pics tomorrow of my upgraded fuel feed line and my revolutionary return line conversion. 
I am running a 3/8" hard aluminum fuel feed line. I installed a new feed line in the top of the fuel pump sending unit, and re-routed the old feed line to act as a fuel return line. So im using the stock fuel feed line as the new return line.
So tomorrow i will finish running the aluminum fuel line, install the new fuel booster pump, and tie up a few more things before pulling out the old motor.
