if you guys complain about having to go to honda tech to view it ill move it over here

but they just have a more technical group and love manufacturing as do i so thats why i posed there first


i hope you guys can forgive me lol

 

wow!!! super near from the front bumper... are you going to get rid of the little part of the bumper which block the direct air to the filter (i hope you understand that, sorry)

 

already did i have pics some where on here of my gutter guard grill painted black looks badd ___ ill get some pics tomorrow with the bumper on so you can see the fliter though the grill

 

Looks good, what color do you plan on painting it?

 

its going to get powder coated black first after some more sanding and i still want to make a section for the maf ensor to mount but i need to make a little plate for that first

 

^ looks good, update us when its finished. are you planning on dynoing it just to see what you get out of a custom intake?

 

you know it lol


im tyring to get it dynoed the same day were going to tune my friends gtp so probly by the end of nov. but even then i think maybe i will hold off becouse then i can tune in december when i get my nitrous.



and my next project im looking into is a intake manifold im currently researching this though

 

Is this your daily driver, if so, what are your plans when it rains? Or after it rains? Cause your filter is so close to the front port in the bumper, that you would need to be careful going through the slightest puddle of water.

 

Yea thats what I was just thinking

 

yeah that looks a vacuum for water. But it looks sweet , how does it sound?

 

once i actualy mount the sensor on the pipe it will be easy to conver to a short intake but for now i think ill get a water jacket for the filter they have the k&n ones for $25 at jcwhitney and i can just take a 40 min drive to go pick it up at there whare house so i just hope it doesnt flood any time soon lol

 

vacum for water lol not realy i have seen test on intakes they have to get dunked in water to suck it up rain shouldnt be a problem with the angle the filter is at and you know as well as i do it doesnt rain that mutch in aurora unless you go down town then it tends to pool up but i live over by napervill our roads are all nice and fixed up here we dont get that (as mutch)

but as for sound i can get a video if you guys want one

 

[quote="aarontrini85"]
Is that a retorical question?

 

[quote="rhythmnsmoke"]
ill take that as you saying you guys want a video lol


i can do one but there is one problem

i dont have an axle back on right now im shoping for muffler right now and im going to do a custom spipe back mandrel bent of cours lol but in the video it might sound a little odd becouse of the whole no muffler thing lol



but you can expect it up i would say no later then 8pm central time

 

yeah im going to have to call for a redo on the videos lol i got 2 but they sound like sutch crap i need my buddys camera so hopefully when he gets out of school tonight

 

ok i have an update i painted it yesterday for the trip to the track today and you can see the pics in the honda tech link but more importantly i was able to pull of a 15.2 with my expert driving lol and the little bit of mods i have and that was on 15 psi on the front tires and 45 on the rear to prevent it from transfering as mutch weight
