Looks much better seeing it on the car.

 

[93eg93]

Very SWEET!!!!!!! Feelin it....

Are your headlights HID and if they are what kind are they? M digging the headlight output and the license plate lights. They match the headlights....

i have normal bulbs up front and same normal bulbs in the rear. it's just wrong white balance setting, they're not "blue".

Earlier in this project you was doing the Dashboard. where did you get it for this gen civic? I have a 93 civic dx and want a dash like yours so I can put a nav + audio + video in the car

 

[!markos]

i did not "get it for this gen civic" it's a stock itr dashboard.

 

[monkeyspit]

.... I want that dashboard and center console piece for my DX

Once again, your car is nearly a work of art. You've certainly spared no expense, and the results so far as flawless. Excited to see it completed. Or at least driving... !

[AllStockHatch]

the turbo's finally here

some heat screens

titanium exhaust wrap looks really good

seems like the car's ready for break in

 

[ImportFan1]

Wait. I thought you had a supercharger? Looking good though

 

[!markos]

well.. umm.. sold it like a few months ago. changed my mind around september, then i started buying turbo stuff.

 

[SlowTEC]

Ceramic coated turbo? Sex.

Never really liked the 'JDM' raked hood, but that's the first thing I haven't liked.

Heat wraps, SMART!

I really like the breather setup, how it's on the valve cover in the stock location, but at a 90* from the engine instead of on the standard angle of the cover. Do you have a block breather as well (removed the PCV)?

 

[!markos]

yeah, 2 separate tanks, one for valve cover (1*an12), another one for the block (2*an12)
valve cover was modified and a weld on fitting was attached

14mm hole instead of stock ~7mm
(i posted this pic some time ago)

it's a tial stainless steel housing, not ceramic coating

 

[SlowTEC]

Hmm, well that's another option I've got for the valve cover I suppose. I was planning on running a single breather/catch can with two hoses from the front of the valve cover, and two hoses from the back of the block, one possibly acting as a drain back. Haven't decided if I like the drain back idea yet though...

Anxious for updates .

 

[!markos]

you don't like the drainback feature (as contents is unburnt fuel and contaminants, almost no oil) and you don't want single breather setup for a boosted engine you're going to fill the tank half full after ~2 weeks. this is why i decided to go with 2 cans.

Right, as far as I understand oil rarely if ever makes its way into the catch can. How large are your catch cans? I was looking at a 1 gallon capacity with 3 breather filters on top for all the connections. You still don't think this would be enough?
