I got my car back 2day. As some of you may know, I put my car in the shop after I went turbo so I could build it. So after a month and a half I got it back. For those who dont know what I had done Ill write it on here. Yes I know I dont have a good clutch yet but right now Im low on cash. So right now Im still on the 5psi base map paul has on his site. Its good for now. Later on once I get the miles on the motor I will get it tuned better for the 5psi. And then from there I will do everything else, clutch, bigger injectors, return fuel, 14.5psi wg spring, and chris FMIC sprayer. But thats all way down the road. So as of now Im very happy. Sat Im gunna have my IC pipes welded, and lift my car a little cuz its 2 low. So pics and videos will come soon.

Be careful with that base map. The last thing you need is to screw the motor up again. The build sounds awesome though can't wait for vids.

im leavein 4 Tampa right now 2 help my sister move in 2 her place. But I have 2 buy a new alternator mine is shot So on the way im gunna call around and see where i can get one the quickest. as for the dyno there is 2 reasons why i cant yet. 1. the PCS XFC computer hook up still does not work, i have 2 call them 2day also and get a new harness, 2. i have 2 put some miles on my car before i put it on the dyno. but it will only be on 5psi for now. so idk ill proably have around 200whp i guess, cuz im not sure how much the camshaft will add, but that thing is sick, u know when VTEC kicks in now hah.. so pics should be up mabye later 2night if its not dark when i get home, if it is ill take them sat.

anyone ever changed the alternater on a 03 civic? haha

getting it running with a nice set of internals
running boost with an untuned map

If I were you i'd pull the WG spring so the car doesn't make boost, until you are ready to tune it. Do you have anything to monitor the vital stats? wideband,EGT, anything?


I've replaced my alternator twice already. Nobody will have it in stock, maybe the dealership but highly unlikely. I got mine from Autozone, lifetime replacement etc etc. Its like $120? I think.

Its easy to replace, just follow the attached .pdf
Your welcome.

well XSRcivic ur a little wrong. im not really untuned, this is the best base map u can get, chris has been runin it on his car for months no problems & he races all the time. and yes i have a boost gauge, and a AEM wideband. so i know what is goin on. i have not gone over 4,000rpms and i have now gone more then like 1/4 throtal. and honda had 5 in stock but for $349.99, and i was like *** that i got a motor for my car for only $350 haha. i went 2 advanced discount auto, and got one it was like idk exactly cuz i still have not brought my old one back for the $75 back or w/e. i have the lifetime thing also. but anyway that was easy 2 install, dident take 2 long. so 2mrow im gunna raise the car a little, gap/install my spark plugs, try and fix my idel problem, mabye weld the IC pipes, and mabye get my exhaust on. ill deff take pis 4everyone and post them up. i might even do a little video clip.
oh and thx 4the pdf u did, but i already did it, and chris helped me a lil but thx anyway ill give u rep 4 that cuz u pimp hah
