Whats up Tone?! How ya been Oh, this happened in Rochester today... I don't even...

I would recommend getting an y8 manifold. From what I've heard, you gain more power from a y8 mani swap than you do adding on a cold air intake. You don't get much from an intake anyways, but, if you're going to turbo, might as well let it breath better.

Nice! How did you guys do. And what does the "cost" scoring mean? Looking at the results, my alma matter (RIT) got 36th place there... cost score for everyone is like 60-70 points, but, RIT got -9? lol

Looks great! How are you liking the JL? I love mine even though it's an older W3, it still hits pretty good! Did you dynamat? I never did and my Civic used to rattle like crazy.

What happened? Lose some gears or can't shift or something?

Man you are totally rescuing this thing, haha! I wonder if you can drill into the sensor and use an easy out set to get it out. I'd also shoot the previous owner a text and tell him to never work on cars again :lol:

Damn! That's going to be a beast. A friend of mine from HS just picked up a Supra over the summer too, looks pretty similar to yours. In for updates on this monster

Yeah, sounds like you need a new axle seal. If it's totally gone there's going to be play. It's also possible that the seal is pressed too far in, or the axle isn't fully in the transmission (though you'd likely feel and notice that).

Hmm, take a look at this thread: http://www.civicforums.com/forums/36-mechanical-problems-vehicle-issues-fix-forum/312813-error-code-p0497-evap-system-low-purge-flow.html Mentions something about calibrating the ECM. But, how did you clean the PCV valve? It would be best to replace it rather...

+1 for K series

Check fuse 15 under the dash to see if it's blown.

Sweet update! Glad things are working well for you! Your senior project, was that for Formula SAE?

:welcome: Hell of a first post man. Looks like you're saving this thing and it's coming along nicely! Sucks getting into a car without knowing the whole history and discovering a bunch of things, but it sounds like you know what you're doing. Any plans to change the motor out? You should be...

Charged with reckless something or other, the guy survived after a couple surgeries I believe.

I mean, a B16a2 from the US/Canada is already ODB2. You should be able to get away with a P2T. You have an USDM Si motor. For Canada, that's the same motor as the SiR's. P30 won't work because that's ODB1. It *must* be ODB2 for it to work.

Sounds like you have a solid plan for it! Keep us posted on updates :thumbs up

Looks good! I like all the ideas you have in mind, too. I say go for it! While you're at it, replace the interior lights with LEDs too. Makes a world of difference.

This could also be a grounding issue. Check yo ground cables!

There is an 04-05 Si hatch. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_Civic_(seventh_generation) Check out the Si section...

Looks good! Just make sure the turbo seals are in good condition and that it has minimal shaft play. And don't forget a good tune! Any idea what you're going to tune the car on?
