re: Boostedlsvtec's Turbo Build
Wow, nice engine build you have going. I imagine you're looking for 500hp+ given the sleeved block eh?

Do I see a bit of reverse rake or is that just the photos?

(I'm going to move this to member rides, I'm sure people outside of Western Canada would be interested in following the build)

Oh wow.
I was gonna say my usual welcome and help you find your way around, but obviously you know what you're doing. I'm quite speechless.
That is a sinister car, I could only dream of having that much work put into my Civic.
I'll gladly be watching for any progress on this. Looks awesome

re: Boostedlsvtec's Turbo Build
Enjoy the race mounts

If you have any loose bolts, they're going to vibrate off

What do you like better about the Civic compared to the Cobalt, what do you prefer about the Cobalt (if anything )?

Lol I heard they vibrate bad!. Honestly only thing better over my civic was the powe which is about to change... The civic has way better ride and handling. The cobalt interior was so cheap feeling and such long throws it was hard to bang gears. lol civic is way more fun to drive!. (currently got jdm gsr in my civic until get the rest of parts to install new motor/turbo setup)

re: Boostedlsvtec's Turbo Build
They don't stock 95a mounts, eh..

Guess no one else is crazy enough to order anything that stiff

They do vibrate pretty bad at idle and it gets a bit old after awhile, but other than that it's not to noticeable. Definitely a worthwhile sacrifice, car feels way more solid having a good set of mounts.
