I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

After a few long months, finally about finished up.

build threads. post pics & specs & brag about your ride.

After a few long months, finally about finished up. **NOW WITH PICS

Post by miyagi » January 20, 2007

Well - as most of you know I turbo'd my integra around this time last year. 84mm B16, t3/t04e, 16psi, pump gas, blah blah. Seemed to run fine, but the motor started smoking and started being a little noisy. I kept driving it for a while and finally decided to just pull it and check everything out. Cracked ringlands in all 4.

two months of downtime or so later, and the motor was back in action. 84.5mm b16 this time ... same setup otherwise, 14psi pump gas... couldn't get it to go any lower for some reason.... This tune was so much smoother, drove like it was in stock form, but made 365whp ... I loved it. one week later, while racing a buddy on the highway, i shifted into 4th and it just went dead. Pulled the plugs immediately ... #4 looked like pure hell, the rest were okay. Swapped plugs quick and limped back home ... got it towed to my buddy's shop and pulled the motor and just forgot about it for a few days... had him pull the head off while i was at work

it looked a little something like this...
Image and this .. Image I almost gave up ... considered selling everything and starting fresh. After some emotional support from everyone I stayed with it ... saved some money and here I am today.

For the next few months, i'll be on a stock block and low boost on a super conservative street tune just to make sure everything is kosher ... then in goes the 85mm B16, Type R head (springs, retainers, blox b's) and some high boost on the 30R

Finished up the fuel setup yesterday ... just waiting on 2 lines, a filter, and a couple fittings and it's go time. All that's left is to double check the wiring to the fuel pump and injectors ...should turn the key on monday... tuesday at the VERY latest.

Also - just waiting on a lower gasket kit and the built motor can be assembled... that should be in and tuned by april.

I'll get some pics up in the next few days ... i'm just finally excited to drive this damn thing ... too bad we FINALLY got some snow in altoona, so i'll basically just be driving it from the shop to my storage shed.

Too bad munster and duanne got rid of there stock blocks .... i was all pumped to try stealing a title haha.

Oh well ... there's always the battle of the built blocks at the flashlight drags this year.

Wish me luck and hope it doesn't blow!

Good luck, man. Check and double check everything. It's gonna be awesome to see this thing out again. It's been what... a year or so?

What are you doing for a fuel setup that you're doing lines and filter?

From the tank forward? That's my future plan. Sump the tank, -10 feed, aeromotive pump, inline filter, dual feed rail. -6 return.

sucks your havin so much headache with the setup. sounds like a good setup though good luck :) this kind of stuff is why i never turboed my integra when i had it well that and i was always broke lol. turbo and racing = maintenance and lots of it from what i've seen. as mentioned b4 just double check everything. couldn't hurt to have it dyno'd and tuned as well if you haven't already AND POST SOME DAMN PICS :)
