Yup pretty excited going to get the Z kit today and start installing today if i have time. hell i never have time. ill be documenting the full install, I just hope i like it im use to 450+ hp fwd cars.

 

Congrats! To get 450+ you will need minor work, 440 inj, engine managment u-tec sugggested, good exhaust, plenum, I would go with headers also. Plus you will be running high boost, so you might have to build you your block to be safe.

 

well i have a bit more plans then that i know what it will put out stock... more boost with a Utec is what im going to do with biggggger injectors

 

post pics when ya get it!!!

 

After market headers won't work well with the Turbonetics kit. Unless you are meaning a totally redesigned/custom exhaust manifold, which I have yet to see.

 

Could you run the HKS K-Pro intsead of the U-tec? I hear people are getting better numbers with less boost with this but haven't heard any users on the u-tec yet.

 

Shoot that or we will run AEM if and when its ready.. I really like the AEM.

 

That is actual debaitable, I have the Crawford headers on my kit And on a G-tec it says 412 rwhp not tuned on there, I know that is not that accurate but its not 50 hp of or anything. So agree to disagree, the Crawford and alphawerk headers have put out more power than stock manifold.

 

Welp my ECU is flashed and my driver has my kit at the house. ill snap some pics when i get home... Pretty excited its been awhile since FI

 

What is "HKS K-Pro"

Hondata has K-Pro

 

haha....Yeah, I hope he means the the HKS FCON V-Pro

 

Yeah I like to mess around

 

Nice, good to know they make power though. How about the turbo spool up time? Have you compared the spool up rpms of you and other TN owner with stock mani?

 

YEs stock guys hit full boost at about 3300-3500 rpms, and I hit full boost just a little over 4000, pry 4100 rpms!

 

Some Pics from the install Day 1 Saturday. After Shaggy and I installed Injectors,intercooler, and totally didnt follow the directions b/c we thought we could do it easier on the power stearing cooler instead of routing it to the side of the car. we should be done tomarrow we just messed around today

 

Some more....

 

Gosh i love this kit. I'm so going to get my hands on this or the Greddy.

Do you have the option of not wanting that huge spearco logo on the IC?

 

there is one thing i hate about the system. the wastegate location and mount is terrible. it almost hits the frame of the car, im worried the movement of the motor might make the gate hit

 

Yah just turn the intercooler around. also its very hard to see the intercooler on stock bumper

 

Agreed with the location, though mine along with pics that I have seen of others... Do not show any real issue with being able to move as much to kit something.


Also progress is looking pimp
