Do I understand that correctly? Are you moving your shop to Vegas? If so, that rules for me. As I am in Flagstaff, Az and only 4 hours away, and I graduate in May and get to get a realy job with real money...this could rock!!!!

Rep Power: 0 Axles will be fine no worries there, unless you get really high on the power which you could, then I would keep away from hooking up really hard off the line. As for your tranny if you get deep enough into it, send me your diff and I will weld it so your tranny should be just fine.

Rep Power: 0 Beat me to it. THe VAFC abd SAFC have the asme capabilitys but the VAFC has the ability to adjust the VTEC engagement point.

DH: PnP heads, TB w/ port matched IM, 10lb flywheel and clutch
SF Turbo kit w/all upgrades: equal lenght, upgraded turbo, methanol inj, etc..
Vafc2, Turbo XS dual boost controler, Greddy Turbo timer, Denso IK22's.
Underdrive pulley, Geddy Evo exhaust and catless down pipe.
What is a reasonable horse power for this setup and at what point should I get my diff. welded.

That's gonna give crazy power if everything works out. I have a VAFCII already and it has tons of tuning stuff. I'm also looking at ported head from DH soon.

My only worry is that this is my daily driver. I want to make sure I do it right. The heads, TB and IM will let me get more power w/ less boost, which should be better overall qaulity. I am hoping for 250-270 horse power with boost set high and hope for 200 horse power with boost set low. Thats why I ordered the Turbo XS dual stage controler.
What do you think Josh. What would you recomend I add. Hurry before the credit limmit runs out

Rep Power: 0 I wish it was June and I was graduating from college so I can get a better job and buy all this stuff. Well, at least by then we'll have dyno proof and I'll just buy it all.

About Your Welded Diff. I always run one, if you have any muscle then it's easy to drive. I love it because I know all my power it being distributed evenly between the two wheels.
I was saving for an engine swap. Until, I saw amazing numbers put out by Cat and started leaning towards keeping my D17 w/turbo and heads. I was able to get an awsome deal on the turbo setup from "torque king". I was not going to go with the PnP for a while. But after I saw the picture of the billet TB I was hooked and then figured what the hell and put the whole DH package on the credit cards.

Rep Power: 0 We will be having meets there, parties, ect.... I will have one meet yearly where I will expect people to take time off and drive the distance to show up. I am planning on having 500+ of our customers there at this meet, and to drive the Vegas streets. If you want to be on National TV for a meet like this then believe it will happen

Rep Power: 299 looks like the throttle body will eliminate cruise control and the idle air valve. Is this true?

Rep Power: 0 I believe you still can keep the Idle air plugged in but just tossed off to the side. Don't know about your cruise, I like control so I never thought about it.

Rep Power: 299 I here ya. The only thing needed for cruise would be a second place for another cable right next to the throttle cable. Ahhh the price we pay for speed 
What other applications does your 74mm throttle body fit?

Rep Power: 0 Bigger runners? I already have them on our custom one. It is higly designed to flow like a champ. Our throttle body fits everything from WRX's, to civics to S2000's, ect.. Pretty much everything we have found can work with it.
I have a SOHC 1.6 with a better flowing head then your motors already, and I still picked up 26 on this combo with a stock ported manifold, so you guys with more stroke, and the manifold being the weakest part of your motor should see the same if not more

Rep Power: 0 Quick question about the SAFC and tuning? I will be getting your combo here, already got the duel groove, then the SAFC, then more exhaust work, then the PNP. Now my question is, should I wait till I get everything to get the car tuned? I mean all that will come throuhout the rest of the year.

Rep Power: 0 ok so the gains on the custom and the stock ported manifold are the same, but for more power possibilities without it turning into a shrapnal grenade the custom is better? yes? no? maybe?

Rep Power: 0 Custom is better for boost being the plastic won't like the pressure of a turbo. As for your tuning question the SAFC and VAFC would do just fine till you have all the parts then I would do a dyno trip for peak power, but the V and SAFC will get you pretty close.
