My Civic

[calicojack]

Well Ive been here for a long time but never got around to posting any of my pics, but today is the day. And before you say it I hate how far the exhaust sticks out, but it took forever to find someone who would weld it and after three tries thats the best they could get it.

Nice man. What's under the hood. any future plans?

[calicojack]

well its boosted, currently running the hack at 8psi - but I have to tear it aprat when I get some time because I have an exhaust leak I cant find. IM happy with it right now so im not sure what the future holds, new paint would be nice tho

[IALuder]

nice hatch. looks good.

[KwikR6]

I would say a drop is in order, a FMIC as well.

[calicojack]

thanks IALuder

[calicojack]

yeah I was thinking about a drop too, nothing too big, 2" maybe - and I do have an IC, you just cant see it ;)

[KwikR6]

You may have an intercooler. But if you read, i said a FMIC.

[calicojack]

yup mines in the front

[KwikR6]

Kind of talking about something like this.

[calicojack]

yeah I know what you ment, I was messing with you. I really dont see the point, if I was running more boost then yeah I would get one but I really dont see the point in spending the cash on it if mine works fine.

[KwikR6]

if I was running more boost
there is your problem........you need to run more boost ;) hahahaha jfwy

[calicojack]

lol true- but I have a bunch of miles on my car and its kinda scary to think of running too much more than what im running now

[KwikR6]

What motor you boosting?

[calicojack]

d15y pushing 140k

[KwikR6]

Meh...if you blow it...K series ;)

[calicojack]

lol true but they arent free (:

[KwikR6]

So true. But man oh man. Boosted K in a hatch. So hot.

[calicojack]

agreed - I was thinking about doing a swap, wont be anytime soon but its something to save for I guess (:

[KwikR6]

What would you do for a swap?

[calicojack]

well before I decided to go turbo I looked around a bit. I was kinda looking for a b18, but really if I could have found something decent for a nice price I would have taken anything that was an improvement over what I have- which was pretty much anything. But the more and more I read it seemed turbo was the easier way to go. Every thing localy was just way to expensive- D series were in the $1000-1500 range. So I decided to go turbo and put the swap off for awhile.
