If you wish for me to stay and continue to help the site as I have in the past, unlock my other FI thread and rename it to "I'm Back" or something of that nature. If not, then I will simply share my knowledge and achievements elsewhere. Perhaps the site they mentioned above.

If you want to introduce yourself back on the forums, then do it here.............. http://www.7thgencivic.com/forums/fo...play.php?f=105
This forum is for f/i, and you already stated that you were back in the this thread. The other thread that I locked in OT was because you cannot start threads asking people for rep. You get rep because you earned it, not because you beg people to give it to you. If you want to leave because you got a couple threads locked, then so be it.

only @ 5psi right now. i was thinking of buying a joe p boost controller cuz those are pretty cheap and are prettyr eliable from what i heard. what you guys think? should i make my own boost controller or go with the joe p?

The only down side is that you will be running with a small vacumm leak and it may affect ideling.

Rep Power: 0 What I don't get is why some of you guys are wanting such huge numbers. I mean thats all fine and dandy to make 600whp but with only 1000 rpms of rev range left its hardly usable. Why not start lower with something that will put out 400-420 maxed with an excellent spool and take it to the track. I mean With the car weighing in at 2200 lbs + or - 300whp would get you 11's and you'd be flying. A 400whp D17 should be 10's if you have the driver mod.
Some turbos for example would be the 2871R or the 3071. A Big, or super 16g.
Or even a TO4B with a 47lb compressor mated to a stage 3 wheel in a .63 housing.
