I am going to keep it here. No drama. People who have experience and dont just read on the internet and then start fights. I love it! And most of all it is all about the "clean JDM" look that I have been into since I was a Honda guy (haha) back in the day!

Tom, you need to go for a beer with me man. Been too long. Carlisle.
John, sorry I missed your IM the other day, I was washing my car...lol.

Well as you can see by my dyno graph there my boost tapers from 24psi to 20.5psi. That certainly is robbing power up top. I know all MBCs will taper a bit but I should be able to hold 22psi to redline. Actually it has gotten worse and it now tapers to 19psi and has developed a squeel. I am finally going to be home for the first weekend in nearly 3 months so I can tear into it this Saturday and find the leak(s) and hopefully my power will go up above the 330whp shown (although the low end tq should remain the same). So hopefully that 330whp is conservative. It should be with all I have done....but of course all dynos read differnent so who knows. Till then, some old pics taken in the spring......

FN pics arent working!!!

EDIT: I found the trick! You must hit the "Go Advanced" button to post pics on here sometimes. Although all the pics I have posted thus far on here I just posted the link like every other forum in the world. Whatever. Some pics up now. The only exterior differences from these pics taken in April to now are slotted rotors but who cares? I have a JDM IX rear bumper cover on the way though!!!

Its the same problem I have had in the past on this site. The hour glass comes up and stays there for hours. It is very frustrating!

John and/or Munster (or any Admin for that matter) can you look into this??
