Old thread, but no need to start a new thread... Here are some new pics and a dyno. They dyno is with a horrible tune and I was fighting my BOV. It kept opening up at 15 PSI. I starting working on my tune after I moved to NE but ended up getting a short. That sucks as I was changing my "injector offset vs battery voltage" (controls how the injectors react to the battery voltage as if fluctuates with driving) which means all the changes I was fighting are useless.






I can't find the one that shows the A/F, but it wasn't that great.


I have put 4,000 ish miles on it in the 1.5 years the motor has been finished. It's been fun, but I'm lusting for RWD since I can't even put the power down in 2nd gear on this car.

HA! FUNNY....

Ironic thing is that my Ford (both of my SHO's) has been more reliable than my Civic :(


BTW, it is a Ford, Mazda and Yamaha in the same car.

Great looking car. I was in high school when the first ones came out. Loved the boxy styling of these and it still works today, nearly 20 yrs later. These would have been more fun in RWD form or the AWD that they now offer.



And at the end of the day, its still a Ford.
You could say the same thing or worse about Hondas', with all the money ppl dump into them, at the end of the day, it's still a Japanese econobox, with a majority of them transformed into a riced out, rattle canned half done hack job project.
