Word on Zinkyroo's kit?

Just wondering if he made it back yet. I know that this past wednesday was the day he was supposed to drive to AZ to Maxrev's shop and have them install his kit to try and fix their f*ckup. Didn't know if anyone had any idea yet. Also, I noticed he hasn't been online since 9/9.

I am sitting in Max-Revs office right now. The kit fit on like a glove, the manifold and downpipe bolted right up to everything. We are currently wiring the e-manage and should begin tuning in an hour or less. The company is awesome they are great people and have top notch service. I would recommend there kit to anyone if andy hasnt ruined there rep for everyone on the site. Well continue posting if you have any questions.

I can't wait to see it!

Anyway, for those of you dissing maxrev, please don't be idiots. Andyman97 has a right to diss them because he purchased one of their products and was not satisfied with the quality and after-purchase service they gave him. I'm sure 99% of the people hating haven't even seen a maxrev kit in person. I have. It's on my friend's B18 Civic. It also fits perfectly, and is of very high quality. Take all reviews with a grain of salt, and you might actually learn something instead of just jumping on the bandwagon.

Well I got back to Denver about 2 hours ago. The kit is perfect and pulls really hard for 4 psi.

Ok ZR - lets hear the details!

What did they set you up with? You got an emanage and larger injectors, right? Did they tune the emanage? Post some photos as well please!

Well we were going to use the E-Manage and larger injectors, but we scrapped that setup. First, the E-Manage is a nightmare to wire on our civics and we spent about 5 hours getting it right. Once we had it all set to go we found out that larger injectors do not just plug into our fuel rail. So Curtis(Max-Revs Owner) designed a custom CNC Machined rail for my car on the computer, but then we had problems with the TPS sensor on the throttle body. So we decided to scrap that whole fuel setup, due to time constraints on my part. So we went ahead with the additional injector setup and the MF2. We desiged custom injector bosses and fuel rail for the extra injectors, made a tee in the fuel line, and ran a fuel line to the injectors. Fired the car up, made some changes with the MF2, and it ran great. Richened the car up drove around tuning, and about 20 mins later the car was perfect. The car is running 4 psi right now and it pulls hard. I just need to make some small changes with the fuel due to Colorado being like 5000 ft extra above sea level then Arizona.

The MF2 is a good choice - I might go that route. The only problem I see with it is that whenever you change your boost you'll have to redo the fuel curve.....But if you leave it alone its all good!
