Hey I just got home and got your message. Went away for the wed aniversary this year. Congrats dude thats sick man. Just thinking maybe you might wanna ask J.E. but we might wanna weld some straps around the plenum of that intake mani, lol. IDK if I tested it for 30+ psi and it would be a lot easier to re-enforce it now just for safety sake. See what he says next time you talk to him, if he thinks its neccesary. Again congrats, I know what kind of work it takes to make this stuff happen, its not an easy road to go down.

 
Rep Power: 350

Word, man. It seems to be holding fine. We did the reinforcements on it a few years ago, I think it's good to go. But I'll mention it to him and see what he thinks.

P.S. He was really impressed by your work
Everybody who sees it is, too.

Those are some very nice K-tunes.....gives you the turbo itch looking at some of those numbers and set-ups. Definately gonna ned to get me a good set of cams and upgraded valvetrain I think. The mod list will be getting longer.

He daily drives on the an 93octane map and converting to e85 is not practical around here cause out of Nothern VA, D.C. and MD there is about 3 gas stations that sell E85 I believe one of them is the gas station by the exorcist stairs in georgetown which is a pain to get to. I'm not sure were the other 2 are lol. sadly E85 has not really made it's way to the east coast yet

Andy and I were talking to jeff evans about a k24 civic that he tuned on e85 he said that they pulled the head and the pistons were still shinylol

Rep Power: 350

GC, Koni, progress sways, front and rear, ES motor mount inserts, ES front LCA bushings, moog tie rod ends and ball joints. Thinking of switching to tein ss, though.

 
Rep Power: 273

i love my tein ss's andy!!! if you got the money for it go for it!! ( I'm assuming you do!!)

 
Rep Power: 287

andy, if you do swap to tein ss, i might know someone that might want to buy them off of you because he has 2 blown front koni shocks

mis-shifted to 3rd-2nd is the apparent rumor.

 
Rep Power: 249

i dont know what any of this means lol

 
Rep Power: 281

It means he blew up. But be careful with rumours. If it did happen I'm sure he's getting it taken care of as we speak.

stock crank is a time bomb past 350whp according to my machine shop if not sleeved

 
Rep Power: 0

Says who? That sounds like a load of crap.

 
Rep Power: 273

yea where did you hear that from jay...

 
Rep Power: 244

:S eeek really ? foos ? no i mean if the block isn't sleeved past 350 its dangerous... ? is that not true?

 
Rep Power: 0

Not at all. Stock sleeves are stout and easily good past 400whp. Look at Andy's build. 489whp on stock sleeves. Only things he upgraded in the block are the rods, pistons, and head studs.

 
Rep Power: 273

^^^ agreed clint!!

 
Rep Power: 287

he didnt do anything all that bad. in fact, hes got it mostly fixed and ready to go to IA this weekend. hes just missing one part but ill let him come and add to this thread whenever he feels like it. just dont start spreading rumors that he completely blew his motor or anything that crazy.

 
Rep Power: 412

Ya'll are just splitting hairs. He misshifted and something minor happened. It was enough for him to have to take the engine out to fix it. He knows the details though.

 
Rep Power: 244

its noooooooooooooooothing i dun even know how this **** started ... obviuosly at 500 whp on a d17 ur gona have minor headaches ... andy will be up and running in no time =)
