[Coroncho80]

Awsome ...... I really hope that the video comes soon man. Awsome job Rob!

[guaynabo89]

looking good there buddy. Hopefully I'll be boosted in the new year also. Of course your setup is extremely nice looking and looks well setup.

Cant wait to see some day pictures of your setup.

How much boost you planning on runnig on the regular? ANd what size turbo you runnig if you dont mind me asking.

With all the nice cars up north I might have to go to one of yall's meets.

Im very open and don't hide any details and to answer your question i plan to run 10psi for low boost since thats the smallest spring i have for my wastegate and upwards of 20psi depending on how it goes on the dyno. I have a Garrett T3 Super 60 just like Justin had on his setup. I hope to make my way down to florida and that would be a good trip to take so maybe you will see my car next year at Nopi since iv been saying this for many years now. Plus i wont be in school next september unless i screw up a class.

[guaynabo89]

Well if you make it next year you should show yours. Works out better that way too.

Definately a car Id like to see in person.

[Neuspeed87lx]

FUCK ME .... rob man awesome work .....just awesome ...i am very very impressed .... ACCORD OF THE YEAR RIGHT THERE !

[truetune]

amazing, fkn awesome, it looks soo sexi. mad props to you.

Yes, this engine could make easily 350-400hp with that turbo-stock intake manifold-stockTB and 550cc injectors(with less than 1bar turbo pressure).
But the botom-end is capable of over 600hp ..................with B16A1 intake manifold, larger turbo, 70mm spoon TB and 800cc injectors, this engine will make easy 600+hp......................TOP FUEL(Japan's Honda turbo specialist) B16A,makes 500+hp with GT35 TURBO(just 1.6bar),APEXI POWER FC and just a block-guard ( no slaved block)!!!!
so i think no problem about Rob if he want to go the 600hp+ route, his botom-end is
unbelivable ( close-deck, everything forged), plus B20a is 2000cc ( no 1600cc like B16a).
AEM stand-alone computer is OK ( Formula1 technology)
FANTASTIC ENGINE

Things are looking really good and today we finished my 3" downpipe and my friend decided just to do a full 3" all the way to the muffler. It looks really good and will flow well i just hope its not to loud.

Lol, thats good to hear, but I hope you at least put a resonator in between?... My friend drove his Sr20DET powered 240 for about 20 minutes without a resonator and 3" piping before he felt sick, lol... he drove right back to the muffler shop and got one put in.

[RobT5580]

Its a straight 3" i never thought of the resonator and im sure its going to be loud so im going to have to do something about it. The piping was not bad except the rear was a little harder do because of the angle but i finished it up this mourning. I will get some pictures up next weekend since the car is not here right now.

[smufguy]

we have a guy at work with a 95 sentra with a SR20DET motor and he got a race CAT and no resonator and some muffler, i dont remember. Its deep but on the roll its not loud at all. All u hear is just his turbo spool up and nothing bad. Even the dude with the TUrbo laser has no resonator and a Muffler and it does not sound loud at all.

What kinda muffler are you getting rob? I heard the magnaflow is not loud at all.

[keruhas184]

I got no resonator myself, and I'm surprised how quiet it is. I guess having a stock cat and no header really muffles the sound. So maybe a high-flow cat is a better way to go if CT has emissions. But you might need a hookup for inspection anyway with everything else you have in there.... so emissions may not be a factor...

[smufguy]

with a NA map set up and everything going according to the stock set up and tuned to that, it will be good. But me, im thinking of moving out of NJ anyway. I wanna move to NC or somewhere. but we will have to see. Until then, Im gonna be swapping motors every two years

[Coroncho80]

I have a 2"5 straight pipe with no cat no nothing and the car is pretty quiet. Actually, when I was N/A it was louder than what it is now.

PS: I want a 3" straight pipe so bad ....... Danm, I need more $$$

[RobT5580]

I guess i will just see how loud it is and decide later if i will try to quiet it down or not. I dont want it to be loud because the police are rediculous in my girlfriends town and i dont need the hastle of a ticket or trips to DMV for inspections.

[smufguy]

from what i know, when ur not boosting, ur quiter than a NA like Maurice mentioned. but under max boost, all hell breaks loose

[NXRacer]

you should be fine with only a 3" straight pipe. My buddy just put in a 3" with no mufler on his TSX and its pretty quiet. With a turbo, there really isnt a need for a muffler usually. The best exhaust for a turbo is no exhaust at all.. . . .

[SteveDX89]

Maurice's car is almost silent. I was behind him on the highway and I couldn't hear it at all.

[Justin86]

Yea the turbo helps to lower the sounds, thats why the SRT-4's just have a cat.

[RobT5580]

Sounds good i was concerned with that since i don't want the hastle of a loud exhaust. I just have a few odds and ends to do to her and she should be up and running pretty soon if it goes as planned. The AEM EMS is on the way and all i need is the tuner to set it up then we can fire her up.

[smufguy]

you should be able to find a table for a SOHC D16 turbo civics and run it for a while, or to say just load up the NA map and have no boost. AEM EMS (from what i heard) is easier to tune compared to other ems like greddy and stuff. Its similar to SDS cause its more popular and a lot of guys are knowledgeable enough to tune em. AEM might have downloadable files.

[keruhas184]

Yep. AEM has an Electronics Forum (http://forum.aempower.com/bbs/login.php) with downloadable maps and what not. They also have a firmware update for the EMS avalible for download...
