Rep Power: 350

Should have this thing together and running real soon. Gotta tear the motor down and get it to the machine shop, then put it back together. So once its done, it'll be getting a new tune. Can't wait to see what 20+ psi, the AEM, Dezods equal length manifold and JDM Fabtech's intake manifold do for this monster!

Nice.. damb do i go to a meet with you at the park by hasting? or maybe at lions? Shoot.. But looking good so far.. Killeen.. wow, feel like forever ago.. but nice man.. Your going to have to run Alo's *import illusions* k20A3 10psi swap when your done. Ill be out there again come july or august. Have it done and we'll run

 
Rep Power: 305

Damn everybody jumpin on the buildup bandwagon lol, it's built turbo d17 season. Nice job as always man, cant wait to see some numbers. 20 psi will be the limit for you or is that just the starting point?

 
Rep Power: 350

20 will probably be the limit for the 550 cc injectors. I'll probably end up going with 1,000cc's in the long run. We'll see what it does with the 550's for now. This turbo will push over 350 whp.

Yeah, I believe I ran Hogie with the boosted type s that night. Once it's done, there won't be much on the street that will be able to hang. It should break 11's. It was damn near 12's on 13 psi before. With 20, it should break the 350-ish whp mark and get me a low 12, maybe high 11, we'll have to see.

Those Dezod pistons look nice!!!

 
Rep Power: 279

Yeah well shoot for 11's! thats what im going for on 7psi SC lol.. but ill probably hit more like 12.5 . But just keep us updated. And Good Luck, hope you have a good clutch too! lol. Alo's got 315hp and he's slipping.

 
Rep Power: 350

Oh yeah, I'm running an action 6 puck. A buddy of mine used the same clutch on his gsr and it held all the way into the 10's.

What happened to the whole "Stock" idea?

Andy,

I plan on coming out to Killeen in the summer to visit Eric and Chris. We have to meet up and go to the track with our cars and represent the least supported and most under-estimated civic that honda has ever produced.

 
Rep Power: 360

sweet! cant wait to see the outcome of this!!! plenty of vids everywhere you go!

 
Rep Power: 350

I had the money so I figured I'd do it now. My long term goal has been to pull an 11 out of a d17.

Mike-hell yeah man, just let me know when. I have to get in touch with Eric one of these days, I haven't done jack in the racing community lately, been working on bodybuilding.

 
Rep Power: 298

Dam you and your drug smuggling income andy!

 
Rep Power: 293

Well if all goes planned by the summer i should have 300whp also. So that makes three of us. Right now my cars block is getting sleeved. I have the pistons and rods. Just gotta do some work on the crank and then put the motor all together. Hopefully we can all meet up one day and represent, smoke some other hondas.

 
Rep Power: 387

hogie got K-pro so good luck on not keeping up now.. LOL its gonna be interesting to see what you get out of it

 
Rep Power: 350

Yeah, he's first on my list when I get done. How much boost is he planning to run, do you know?

 
Rep Power: 0

PSI pressure is useless unless you know the turbo size Andy.

 
Rep Power: 252

Is That A Full Stroker Kit?

 
Rep Power: 0

That is turbo rods from Crower, and Dezod Turbo 8.8:1 Pistons.

when it's sleeved? what does it mean?

 
Rep Power: 285

Body building? WTF? hahaha......

I talked with eric today. He is running 14.2 in his stock SRT. He just installed his exhaust yesterday, and he is going to install the turbo setup we built in a few days. Also our buddy chris that lives with eric now is getting a revhard kit for his RSX-s. So you guys could have a hell of a little crew up there.

 
Rep Power: 327

no more boost it till she blows with stock internals?

 
Rep Power: 387

hoagie is runng a t60-1 , K-pro and I think he was supposed to upgrade to 650cc injectors to help out, 3" downpipe and full exhaust now also

 
Rep Power: 0

60-1.................psssssht.

Old proven technology like the T3 Super 60. There are much better, more efficient turbos out there now. They will flow just as much, spool faster and be just as competitive in price.

 
Rep Power: 293

A sleeve is where the pistons sit into. With lots of pressure they can become weak and crack. So by sleeving they remove your old sleeves and install some thicker and stronger ones. Its a must when building a motor because you don't want to do all that work to just crack a sleeve and start all over again. Darton sleeves cost 240 then 400 to install so for about 640 you get one hell of an insurance plan and you can run huge amounts of boost. My block is getting sleeved right now and then i am gonna build the block. Planning on running 15 psi daily and like 25-30 at the track. We will all see what happens after we hit 300whp.


How about t3 super 60 vs. T3/04e turbo? Seriously Dezod i still want to upgrade one day to your bigger turbo and manifold and downpipe just can't afford it, so i gotta run my old ghetto **** but hey it works.

Where are you getting your block sleeved for that much money Michalo187. I'm looking for places who do sleeving but I have to send my block out to the westcoast because there is **** here in the northeast.

 
Rep Power: 293

Its getting done in California at Darton Sleeves. Dude seriously just strip your block and it will cost like 60 bucks to ship probably it costed me 23 bucks to ship from Arizona pretty close but still its worth it dude. Mike Aka Turboengnr got his work done at darton also.

T3 Super 60 is older proven technology as well and a lot of the newer T3/T04B & Es provide great power in smaller housings, and provide excellent spool up in comparison to the laggy T3 Super 60. You will notice big gains and more crisp response from the T3/T4.

 
Rep Power: 293

So the t3 super 60 is laggy compared to the t3/t4????

 
Rep Power: 0

Some of the newer T3/T4s yes. Some of the really larger T3/T04E's, show the same bit of lagginess with TONS more power delivery.

 
Rep Power: 350

Ok, wiseass, I know what turbo he's running, we've raced before, lol. He's got an sc 60-1 and at about 7-ish psi, he made around 300 whp (cybernetics kit with guardian).

But seriously, from where we were before, from a dig, he put maybe a car and a half on me. It's a fast car, no doubt but his times at the track suck donkey *****, he can't launch that car to save his life.

Not exactly. The stock sleeves aren't "removed". They are bored to a certain point and the new sleeves are pressed into the freshly bored stock sleeve. They aren't any thicker, but they are typically iron as opposed to aluminum.
Not a must to have done. I guarantee I'll push 350 consistantly and reliably without them. My friend is using the same exact turbo with neptune on his d16 and has been running 350 whp for quite awhile on stock sleeves. Breaking the 400-ish whp mark is a good idea to consider investing but shy of that, you're not really getting your money's worth, imo.
