[sohc_vtec 2NR]

pare, you got one killer set up!! what exactly are you goals?? HP, 1/4 times, etc... and yes money would be a nice thing right about now..hehe

[thermal]

Just trying to hit 350 at the wheels for now. I want to build my internals too. My goal is to have a low 12's to high 11's on the 1/4. I would settle for 13's until I get a house tho. Plus once I hit 13's, I will get my interior redone and have the car repainted to either mustang green or FBP. Not to mention that I also want some Tein SS or Ground Control "Full" coilovers. How's your project coming along?

[thermal]

UPDATE:

-ordered Hondata S200 with boost
-got the turbo manifold modified to compensate my EGT probe
-added two more brackets to make sure that my manifold stays strong
-more shit to follow :yes:

[94_AcCoRd_EX]

Oh man, you're going all out on this one :yes: Good luck with it!

[thermal]

Thanks man. The teg should be boosted by late this month or early next month. I sold my Motegi MR7's and used the money to get Hondata. Rockin' the steelies baby!!!! ha ha ha..

[sohc_vtec 2NR]

there's nothin' wrong with steelies! i pimp all 3 of 'em, a the spare! :D

i can feel the darkside coming closer, give me about 2 months...*evil laugh*

[thermal]

Hell yeah! I now have no worries of wearing out my tires too soon. I chirp that biatch everywhere...lol.. plus, I have another brand new set on standby just in case....

[ebpda9]

sounds good. i can't wait for the pics tho. how much did the hondata run you ? i need one bad, but not right away

[thermal]

I got the a P28 socketed and prepped for Hondata by someone which cost $75. Hondata S200b cost me $495.

MORE UPDATE:
-GReddy profec-B spec II purchased.

[VR4_Craver]

Jesus thermal i love you ;) i cant wait to see the pics......hmmm...turboed b18:yes:

[thermal]

Thanks man :yes:. I'm taking pictures of my parts tomorrow

UPDATE

These came in:
-GReddy black 52mm oil pressure gauge
-GReddy black 52mm fuel pressure gauge
-RC 550cc saturated injectors

Ordered:
-GReddy profec-b spec II

3 more days and I will be ordering a GEM B18 block guard, 3mm cometic or inline-pro head gasket, oil line kit, and E-cut.

Fun commences in 15 days :yes:

[esthirteen]

Sounds like fun man. Wish I could be there to help, it would be a good learning experience.

[thermal]

Yep, it should be fun. I have been slowing the project down to get the finances straighten up. I have to make sure I have plenty of money for dyno tuning.....

UPDATE:
-2.5 U-bends came in. Will start fabrication very soon!

[thermal]

lol.. I love the rules. That's some funny stuff.

Looks like your going full bore on this. Good luck bro.:)

[thermal]

I started piecing the parts together. I spotted something again which may pull me back another week days. But I think that it will be worth it...

[Grip72]

god you have lots of money..good job man..can't wait to see pics

[Grip72]

ugh..sorry the pics didn't load right away...man, i wish i had the knowledge and money to do something like that

[thermal]

Received the profec-B and Hondata S200b. Too cold to work on my car. need another heater for my garage. The Teg will be on a jackstand next week to commence install. I will take my sweet a$$ time tho. No need to hurry. Snow on the ground anyway. my civic is running strong. Clutch still bad and AFC still not tuned... shit.. i need more funds.....

[sohc_vtec 2NR]

LOL.... I called my CC company. I told them to raise my limit...lol

[ebpda9]

yay ! for arnel. keep us posted. mine will soon commence. all i need is injectors and the piping

[thermal]

Okay, I sold my tube and fin 31x10x2.6 custom intercooler since I picked up a Spearco 30x10x3 bar and plate for only $300! Shit go for over $400 even on ebay :yes:.

I also received more GReddy stuff. Since I got ripped off on my GE oil conveter plate, I ordered and received the GReddy version today, along with the GE block guard. I just need to pick up my oil lines locally and shell out another $200 for a cometic 3mm head gasket. Funds are tight. I have to slow down or I will not have money for dyno tuning.....

[4g63t]

Ya you will, it's called a butt dyno.

I'm actually thinking of moving the EGT and A/F peak and hold gauges somewhere else. I bought a 60mm GReddy boost gague in black. I didnt want it to sit by itself so I plan on getting another black GReddy 60mm gauge to have a feeling balance. I think I will just place the EGT and A/F ratio gauges below or above my head unit. Thanks for the compliment :yes:

[AzCivic]

you suck!

j/k, setup looks awesome now put it all together!

lol.... i'm trying to man. The Navy is keeping me busy tho......:)

[ICUDOUCME]

Your in the Navy. So where you shipped out when we launched against Iraq. If so you got some nice Hazard pay man. Car looks dang good. Keep up the good work. Nice to see someone taking there time and not rushing into things.

[thermal]

Yeah... i was there.... that hazard pay is already gone tho....lol... Thanks for the compliment

[thermal]

I still cant find time to install the actual turbo parts.... it's okay tho, I'm waitin on the oil lines and another GReddy gauge anyway.
Here are some pics I took today. I've decided to move my EGT and A/F gagues to the center. Boost gague and oil temp will take those two spots:

I think that black gagues will work better to match the 2 other black gauges. The silver ones will be in the center:

[Red Hot D16]

Arnell, you better hit me up bro!:yes:

Your young paduan(sp) needs to learn the ways of the dark side!!:cool:

Hopefully we'll be doing my install soon....I just need....well ****....pretty much everything...:banghead: Turbo STILL isn't here. I'm giving the dude one more week to have it here. Otherwise I'm getting my money back through paypal.:no:

[sohc_vtec 2NR]

those greddy gauges are sexy!! how much did you get 'em for?

[thermal]

Got this done today:

http://www.imgmag.org/images/thermal99/p1010006.JPG

Still waiting for a black 60mm GReddy oil temp gauge, which will fill up that hole where the dimmer used to be. I ran all the wires through the firewall already. The boost gague is functional, but only readys vacuum of course until the turbo goes in. The fuel pressure gauge is functioning now as well.

[thermal]

Well I started the turbo install today.... Have a few problems that I have to solve first. More stuff I had to order to include a slim radiator fan the will be a pusher (mounted on the front of the radiator instead of back). I was planning on pulling of the head off to install the blockguard and cometic head gasket but my buddy could not make it on time. I got excited so I started test fitting the turbo itself. The biggest problem is the turbo and manifold. My manifold will not flange flushed against the exhaust port because of the manifold itself seems a bit too short for a T4 compressor. The compressor is already against the block even after shaving a small area of it. I do have a solution. In order for me to make the set up fit, I will have to "sandwich" another exhaust flange in between the turbo manifold and the exhaust port. This will push the turbo assembly away from the block about 1/2 inch and have about 3/8 inch clearance. Of course I will also have to upgrade to a longer studs/bolts. I didnt wnat to take a picture until I fix the problem. It's all good tho. I already ordered the stuff I need to fix my problem. This is another week set-back which I really dont mind. i dont want to rush into this and mess up the whole set-up. I'm being patient. Pics to come soon.

In the mean time, friends are always stopping by all the time. I'm mostly doing all this by myself. Alot of people just watch but are willing to lend a hand if needed.......

[sohc_vtec 2NR]

keep us updated bro.... i'll have mine soon enough.. ;) can't wait for the pics..

When you coming up here to help me with my install?
Yeah i know when I buy your ticket...But remember.
I don't pay in cash...just booze!

Lol

[4g63t]

I demand a picture of the whole engine bay!!

[thermal]

lol.....

Major change of plans. I've decided to do it right. I'm confident on tearing B-series engines apart now. So this is what I plan to do:
-Leave the internals stock for a few months and boost 8 psi with a tuned Hondata S200b. I'm gonna shit can the 3mm headgasket and block guard idea and do it right. I've decided to save up and build the engine up with eagle rods and wiseco pistons......and possibly resleeve it. I know that with the help of a few close friends, we can do the build-up our own...except the sleeving part. I want to max out my turbo and kick my HP goal to 450-500HP by next winter at the latest.... next summer. My suspension is blown, so the Tein SS still must go in. I think it just all depends on what my financial status after buying my house. It will be worth the wait....that I'm sure of.....
:yes: :yes:

500 HP........... :banana:

Drive your turbo'd teg up to Saskatoon

[thermal]

He he he.... i just may. Toss a fine ass girl with that 12 pack and I just might drive up there.... lol

Turbo Teg Update:
-The engine is pretty much put together on stock form. I installed and connected most of my GReddy gauges. The GReddy oil filter "sandwich" made it all easy for me to get some of my sensors rigged. I installed the RC 550cc saturated injectors which pretty much included the OBD1 injector clip conversion. Walbro255 LPH is in place as well. The new slim 16" radiator came in. I installed it and rigged it act as a "pusher". So now, I have a big ass radiator fan in front of the full Fluidyne radiator. Waiting for another B-series exhaust flange to get the manifold installed. Come Friday, I will go ahead get the intercooler brackets welded. Then the pipe fitting will commence........

i hear you. sometimes it's hard to find it from all the eye candy that you see.

now back on topic: when are you gonna tune mine ? might get a h23 before.

[thermal]

I still need to rewire the slim fan for pusher mode :yes:
...... and here's my Spearco intercooler. Also, take note that i relocated the power steering cooler by positioning it higher. A few bracket fabrication and a foot long high temp hose did the trick.....

[KwikR6]

Noice!
I like the rad behind that also.

[sohc_vtec 2NR]

that IC is massive, but then again you're looking into boosting for 500 HP..

i really need to speed up this project just a tad bit> the local track opens this weekend....

[thermal]

The announcer said it will be open again this weekend biatch:flick:

Today was a productive day. The weather was great as well. I finally got the turbo manifold to fit right. The oil line is hooked up and the EGT sensor is in place. I was even able to help out a friend on a Turbo timer and GReddy profec-B spec2 install. Gotta work tomorrow, but Tuesday should mark the beginning of the piping fabrication.... :yes:. The new target day is the 15th this month for Hondata tuning and downpipe fabrication.....

[thermal]

Piping is almost done!!!!....about freaking time!!!!

Nice work my friend. Custom piping rocks!!! Only if we lived closer, we could race. I'm pretty sure you'd win though, becuase of your full engine build up.:cool:

[thermal]

lol..... my engine wont be built until the end of the year brotha. Gotta get a house this summer.

I welded all this shit today. My friend let me play around on his welder. Oddly enough, I caught on pretty good. I will post pics later....:yes:

[esthirteen]

looking good, hope you get it running soon.

[thermal]

Thanks. I should have the car running by this weekend. I already told my friends that my project comes first. Their cars will have to wait. I'm getting the Hondata base program this week and drive my car to the dyno without a downpipe....lol..... I started painting the piping. I have a busy week. Gotta stay ahead....looking into custom 3 inch exhaust pipes and suspension upgrade. I should be at the track soon.....

[IALuder]

this the first time i looked in the turbo forum.

i must say this one hell of bad ass teg. i give mad props. i only wish i could half this shit myself. how much did you pay for those gauges? i herd that greddy guages are out the ass expensive.

i cant wait to turbo my H22a.

[Mirkwo0dForest]

man how cramped is your engine bay with that H22? cuz i know my Teg is PACKED, i had to loose my AC :no: but i feel hardcore now, ya know? i think i'll finish up mine by the end of the week... i surely hope so, i cant wait to drive it!! :yes: :yes:

[thermal]

bah.... the GReddy gauges put a major hole in my pocket. Thanks tho. My gauges came out close to $1k not to include the profec-b spec II and turbo timer. The whole project have cost me about $4k, if not more. I also found out that my tuner will be out of town for a while. Now I have to find another Hondata dealer to get my base setting..... It's all good tho. By then, my set-up should be fully ready for dyno tuning.....................

[IALuder]

Originally posted by Mirkwo0dForest

not at all. the ludes got a huge bay. so i got a lot of room for a turbo to. i love it so much.


1k for guages. damn i want the sameones to. i better start savin.

[Mirkwo0dForest]

hey where is that track in VA Beach... i'd like to come down from richmond during spring break (april 2-9) and race... everything is looking great thermal... major props man. my turbo setup is gonna be done this weekend... :yes: :yes: :yes: :yes: :yes: i'm so fucking excited!!!

[Mirkwo0dForest]

i already said that.... my bad... that was like 2 days ago... I'm JUST EXCITED DAMMIT!!!!!!

[MAXed Out]

Nice progress thermal. How much did the whole setup cost u?
And is there a shop that will do my custom piping?

[thermal]

There are several shops here who will do custom intake/turbo/exhaust piping. My buddy is gonna get his welder and this weekend and I will start customizing the turbo kit for my friend.....

The whole set-up so far, including the little shits is about $4K.... daym, no wonder I'm broke:no:

There is no track in Va beach but a lot of street racing all over the place like most places. Most people from here go to Petersburg (Dinwidie). It is actually closer to Richmond than Va Beach. It's on I-95 south

[Mirkwo0dForest]

yea i've raced at dinwiddie before... in the civic... so slow, but next time you guys decide to go let me know... it's only 30 minutes away

i cant wait to get my Greddy Turbo. i already got a Greddy cat-back and if there turbos are as well made as the exhuast oh buddy watch out!!!

[C's 94 InTeGrA]

i am liking this.. is it done yet?? cant wait to see... u still up for a trade? lol

[thermal]

The Teg should be boosted tomorrow evening. I was able to get the ITR Hondata base map. I just need to retap my oil pan and tighten up the timing belt. I'm scheduled to dyno tune next week on Tuesday. It should be fun :yes:. I have no downpipe yet but it is also scheduled to get fabricated wednesday or thursday this week....

[C's 94 InTeGrA]

i cant wait..

[IALuder]

Nice! post those results:yes:

[thermal]

I'm not expecting much. I've talked to my tuner. He said that i should keep the boost mild until I'm ready to rebuild......

[MAXed Out]

Yo thermal how much are u boosting?

[thermal]

Black, I dont have a C5 brotha'. JDM ITR is stamped "B18C" only. no number after the "C". 11:1 compression ownzzz. I cant turn up the boost...maybe 10 at the dyno......

Dzur, I'm broke....trust me.....

MAXed, the wastegate is set at .5 bar (7.25 psi).

I got the car started today. I made 2 runs and dayyyyyyyyymmmm.... this Teg moves! I ran it without the DP. Loud as fukkkkk!!!! On my second run, for some reason my gas pedal got stuck all the way down and the rev got stuck to 9000 RPM. Good thing Hondata still has a limiter and I was in the middle of shifting so the engine was not in gear. Otherwise, I may have blown the engine up ;(.

Lastly, the turbine housing flange bolt fucking came off. I dont know why :confused:. When it came off, it scared the fuk out of me. I thought I blew up my engine. I found the flange on the side of the road...luckily. I'm gonna need to pull the turbo out and get it reassembled. No biggie. I always expect problems initially on any turbo install that I do anyway. I just wont be able to get my DP made tomorrow.

....then a cop came. he said that there were complaints that I was making noises. I explained to him that my throttle cable got stuck (which it did) that is why the noise was loud. He didnt give me shit. It seemed that he understood. He took a glimpse at my car and saw the hood was popped open. I was polite the whole time. I might hear something from my landlord about this. Hopefully they'll understand......

[Sivik]

lucky ass... screw them all!

your running stock compress on that B18C??? wow, your braver than i thought.

[thermal]

LOL... hell yeah man. I'm getting it dyno tuned with Hondata. My tuner is the one of the best Hondata tuner in U.S. He owned the second ever Hondata system. So he has been tuning for a while.

[IALuder]

how much did you pay for your hondata system? i want one after i get turboed.

ha you drove with it striahgt header. nice. i have been drivin like that forever. hondaman still needs to send me my exhaust.

[thermal]

Hondata with boost option (S200b) cost me $475. Base B18C turbo map is another $60 but credited for my dyno time

well, basically my turbine is exposed. No pipe. I drove it like that. It's loud as hell......

[MAXed Out]

Nice so it moves huh! What do u think ull pull on the charts?

[Mirkwo0dForest]

sounds nice thermal
::envious:::thumbsup:

[IALuder]

i want to see some track times and dyno sheets.:yes:

[thermal]

You will.... early next week...:yes:

[thermal]

....Found the problem why my car would jump to 9000 RPM...... see, this is why I dont need people's help sometimes.

Anyway, spearco intercooler usually comes with plastic end plugs/caps for the in/outlet pipe. Whoever installed my outlet piping forgot to remove the plastic cap and just slap the piping and connectors on. I had this awkwward feeling all day that it was that fucking plastic.... and so it was. The bitch was stuck on my TB. It's too late at night to run the Teg. I will do it tommorow. All I can say is that, it really doesnt matter now. I found the problem and that is all i care about.... :yes:

Good to hear dude.
I would hope that nothing blew up or anything hahah...

[4g63t]

OMG dude. It's funny that it made it up that far though. Glad you figured it out though!

[Sivik]

that is why i like doing everything myself. i know what happens and if anything does mess... i just yell at myself. ;)

[thermal]

I just dropped off the car to get the DP made. Will pick it up tomorrow and dyno tune the next day. Wish me luck ...... pics to come!

[cashizslick]

^ Luck

Very Very nice.....i'm proud of a honda for once. Was that with full exhaust, or just downpipe?

[thermal]

lol.... just DP. I still need a 3" exhaust system. I found one already but this dyno money got me.... I'll be off the street for now. It's time to clean my car inside and out.

Here are the pix:

im im im speachless. god damn thats nice. :yes: :yes:
im so jealious;(
cant wait till get my car paid off. then ill turbo my shit.

[Sivik]

hows the Tial BOV sound? any chance of makin a clip?

[thermal]

I dont have the equipment to make a sound clip. It's not high pitch like the TypeS. It sounds like a big shooosh... I like it

[ebpda9]

i can't wait to get started on mine too. i am sick of the tire melting 125hp on the accord

[C's 94 InTeGrA]

wow.... very nice.. congrads on all u did. I fogured u would get over 300 easily. Theres a guy on teamintegra that hit over 400 somethin horse and then like 400 somethin feet of tourque. ITs just plain amazing.

[4g63t]

Dude, your entire car looks so nice. I've always liked the way the tegs looked over the civics....just where i live they are look like sh*t. I would definetely drive that.

[KwikR6]

WOW
once again
Simply WOW!
Great job dude!

[MAXed Out]

Nice job thermal. I'm speechless.

[thermal]

Thanks everyone! The best part was, even my tuner was suprised! He owned the second ever Hondata and has been tuning Hondatas since then. Before we started, he said that I should be around 240-250. I think he said that so i dont get my hopes up. Towards the end, he said that he can push it even more since it was still making power. Review my dyno sheet and the power curve was still going up. He said he can take it up to 320 whp but we both agreed that even with the best tuning and optimum A/F and spark combo, the internals may still give up. I'm extremely satisfied tho.......

[ebpda9]

what kind of gear head are you if you still let hidden power inside the engine ? :confused: jfwy

[KwikR6]

A smart one
B series engines aren't cheap to replace

[sohc_vtec 2NR]

i'm sooo f*cken jealous right now... :yes: mad props pare! there's nothing more exciting than driving a boosted car! i love my turboD16!

[thermal]

LOL....... I dont want to blow my shit up Stef. Let me enjoy this boosted stock R internals for a while. After, your company sponsors me, then I will go ahead turn the boost up to 15psi...lol

i'm sooo f*cken jealous right now.....
....dont be bro. enjoy your turbo D16 for now. you and I both know that boosting is expensive....... i'm broke as a mug....lol

[Mirkwo0dForest]

props man, major props... shwoooosh!!!!!!!

[thermal]

thanks dood:yes:

[GeneralDzur]

Nice man...I know it's probably a blast to drive.

- Dzur

[thermal]

Right now, the Teg is too loud since I dont have an exhaust. Other than that, I have no complaints....

[2000Pimpinex]

Those are some nice numbers. Congrats on the dyno.

[Sivik]

i think i can scrap up some coffee cans for your exhaust thermal if you want.... haha

lol..... that is 3" yo! I might just do that and duct tape them all togther!.... ha ha

[4g63t]

All I can say thermal is Holy Sh!t!

[4g63t]

you'll definitely be happy with the thermal....thermal...hahahaha :yes: :D

[thermal]

Installed the thermal 3" today......... fucking awesome! It probably eliminated about 100 decibels or more. I didnt think it would drop that much noise. My teg now sounds like my civic since I do have a thermal system in the civic too.... but not 3" tho. I'm running full flow with no cat. I used a 3" flex pipe in lace of the cat... lol. Gosh driving the teg is so much fun now. I can hear my radio and CEL phone ringing....ha ha ha...

New pics:
Here's the dump tube that I fabricated. I also wrapped it with a thermal insulation...

This is how it looks now:

[sohc_vtec 2NR]

lol....... from work..... ha ha.... If you need some let me know..:yes:

[Sivik]

no just build the damn motor, sell the type r internals, and boost the hell out of it!

[thermal]

i picked up an LS block from the boneyard. Got it for $100 and it's amazing in great condition. I will build this up as a back-up motor

[Mirkwo0dForest]

damn wut year is that motor?

[thermal]

Nevermind. I sold the motor for $200. I'll find another one tho.

[esthirteen]

you just made $100, you suck! lol

Too bad you're not local. most people here dont want to ship. B18A/B's here are all over the place. A friend bought 2 B18A long blocks for $150. We are bulding it up for all motor. Go to www.dragva.com classified forums. You'll see some there. Convicing people to ship will be another story. Also try www.homemadeturbo.com/forum classifieds. i see it there a lot as well........

[Mirkwo0dForest]

russel's in Dinwiddie sells a lot of b18s but most are out of the 90-93s. Still a great motor. not sure what he wants for one though.

[ShEaNy]

any more pics or updates?

[thermal]

Nuthin more for now except the new suspension will be ordered soon and most likely a 1/4 time....:)

[esthirteen]

what suspension you ordering? im debating weather to go with a tein he setup or just get kyb agx/pro kit. big difference in price but i like the idea of the coilover setup and being dropped 2.5.

[thermal]

I thought about Tein SS but now that I found out that I can get a set of Omni Power-USA full suspension for $200 less, I'm debating. This is the same suspension that most new road racing people use on SCCA. I also plan on redoing my camber system and get rid of this SPC adjustable ball joint and just go with Omni camber system.... same as Skunk2....

[pdiggitydogg]

...I wouldve bought that motor for 250!

[thermal]

pdogg... B18B's here are so cheap man. My friend just found another one for $100. Complete swap (no tranny) but everything is there: water pump, alternator, starter, ECU, blah blah blah.... The headgasket is blown but the cylinder walls are not scratch. That is a perfect project motor. My friend is picking it up tomorrow..... The other day, another friend picked up 2 bare B18B blocks for $150.....:yes:

[pdiggitydogg]

christ...I gotta get down to va

theyre probably mostly obd1 though arent they
(I do NOT like rewiring)

[thermal]

some are OBD 2's but mostly OBD1's...... It's not a hard conversion brotha'. I'm sure you can handle that shit is no problem....:yes:

[pdiggitydogg]

I know I could do it
But its kinda a pain (and Im lazy) and when mi starts doing emissions testing again I need the motor to be up to date.

[thermal]

fuk emissions ... ha ha...

[Sivik]

i need money so i can start my project swap. thermal, care to make a... umm motor donation?

[thermal]

ha ha ..... I need one too. I skipped off on a lot of deals around here just so I can redo my whole suspension. I also need to fix my third gear grind.
