Soon to Come.....

So I was at my local Partsource today, looking for stuff to do when my hook up comes to me with a question.

Leo: Kit, I've got some sweet news for you.
Kit: What's going on Leo?
L: Wanna boost your horsepower and torque to about 225hp/250lb/ft
K: .........
L: We're gonna need to get you a new BPV(Bypass Value), and install the Tip Chip.
K: How much is this gonna cost me Leo, cuz I only got about $50 to my name.
L: WHAT! I thought business was good!
K: It is, but I haven't taken any money out. I'm saving for a house and I need to buy a truck as well. Plus I owe a dood some money and I'm saving up to pay him back. Things are a little tight right now. I still have some people that owe me money!!!!!!
L: This cool, I'll just give you the ****.
K: .........
L: Yea, I'll sponsor you dood, you sent me like 25 people in the last month, so this is the least I can do!
K: Hmmm......can we do some suspension work next year? I wanna do some autox!
L: **** dood, your car is gonna be fast....but I think we'll need to turbo upgrade as well!
K: .......droooool......
L: K, I'll have your **** by next week....
K: Umm....ok.....



Damn! I can't wait! I'm gonna dyno the car stock then take it in to get the upgrades....this is soooooo much cheaper than an engine swap. Guys, turbo is the way to go. I can put a bigger turbo in an push even more boost. Right now stock it runs about 5-7 psi. The chip pushes it to about 10-15 psi. Crap...I dunno where to start! Can we say SLEEPER!!!!!

Lol....sorry guys....I just needed to tell somebody...but don't worry....hopefully I'll have a suprise for the 7thgeners in Feb! Wink Wink.......

Nicely done Kit! Now THAT is the kind of hook-up I need. Just don't go around showboating that turbo in front of the cops... Just kidding.
That sounds like a sweet mod!

Re: Soon to Come.....

[i]Right now stock it runs about 5-7 psi. The chip pushes it to about 10-15 psi.[/B]
If this isn't a turbo with major engine work (ie. sleaves, new injectors, pistons, rings) included.
There is no chip that will do this for the 7th gen civic.
If you are gonna run 10-15 psi on stock ... all I have to say is BOOM!!!
Sounds fishy, especially if you fall short of your 25 people. What happens then?
Just my 2 cents.

Dood....it aint for a crappy Civic....internals could never handle it.

It's for my Audi A4 1.8t, and I sent other people to my hook up other than 7thgeners.

There is no "BOOM" for a car that already runs turbo stock. Just adjusting Air/Fuel Ratio and boost.
