With this new fuel system, what do you estimate the boost will be able to get to? I belive riceburnerex has 8 or 9 PSI of boost with out anything like that, and that gave him 198whp. Thanks alot

Rep Power: 337 are you going to eventually part kits out? or will you ONLY sell this as a complete kit? you say you are building this custom one at a time, does that mean you cna make custom changes based on customer desires?

Rep Power: 0 just to make an important note, if you put a turbo as big as the T-3 on a little engine like ours, there will be lag till around 3000-3500 rpm, ask some of the others on the site what theyre running, im sure theyll tell you theres a lot of lag. and look at the manifold, it may look clean but look at the primaries, theyre all different lengths, it doesnt look like they tried to make them similar, which is important for best performance. how much R&D time went into this system man?

This manifold is made in such a way that the length of the primaries are as short, and as close to equal length as possible.
dont try to trash something that is nicer than the rest of the turbo kits youve ever seen for our cars.
After all, do you think Fiber Images would put a Piece of crap turbo kit on their car? Expecially after spending all that money on carbon fiber?
Think before you speak, and dont trash something based on a picture.
This kit is based on Staffords other kits, which make awesome street power. You want to see the dyno chart for my CRX with his kit on it? my crx went from 88 hp and 89 ft/lbs of torque (to the ground) to 215.1 hp and 176 ft/lbs to the ground.
Heres the numbers for my CRX, this was at 10 psi of boost
THIS IS NOT MY CIVIC, it is an 89 CRX HF

Rep Power: 312 another thing to add, the T3 was not too big for my little 1.6L in my crx, which only had 88 hp to the ground. Since our civics have a 1.7L engine that makes more than 88 hp to the ground, you can probably expect some pretty good numbers from the new kit.
We will know as soon as my piping goes back on my car, so just wait until we have real numbers before you guys start trash talking again.

Rep Power: 312 The thing that is wrong with a log style manifold is that the exhaust charges do not get to the turbo at the same time. Each cylinder's exhaust gas gets there in differing amounts of times, meaning that 2 cylinders can enter the turbo at the same time.
The log style manifolds are not Horrible, it is just that equal length manifolds give better spooling time, and they just look awesome.
