08 Si Sedan Build

[barrett]

Hey guys. Here's what I am planning on doing (not exactly in this order): ingen mr intake, HFP suspension, buddy club header, apexi world sport 2 exhaust, mugan head gasket, skunk2 tuner series cam gears, skunk2 stage 1 cam shafts, skunk2 fuel rail, walboro fuel pump, RC injectors, wiseco pistons, h beam connecting rods, skunk2 valve springs, titanium retainers, hondata pro flash. Tell me what you guys think, and how much power you think it'll make and any suggestions you might have for my build.

i've heard mixed feelings on the hfp suspension some say its to soft others say its to stiff so idk. personally i want something that siff as hell because i plan on fitting a lower offset. who knows how much power u'll make, 250?? u find out when ya get it tuned. If u think all that is worth the cost do it, you would prolly spend the same amount in a turbo or supercharger and make more power. either way good luck and I'm interested in how it turns out.

Now you've got me thinking. I looked at one turbo kit and it was something like 5500. Which is about the same as the parts list i have. Unfortunately i know absolutely nothing about boost and i don't think the people that might help me know either.

Do ur suspesion and all those mods then if u really want boost do it. Im staying na for daily driving

 

[barrett]

Considering it is a dd i dont really wanna do boost. Read a little about it today and seems like it gives a shitload of power but is hard to install and can possibly damage ur engine if u don't do it right. So i'm gonna stay away from that.

 

[Jordan_n]

thats prolly just really dumb people boosting. if u do it intelligently things work.

 

[barrett]

for now i'll probably just start off with the cai, header and exhaust and maybe after that i'll be able to find some suspension pieces.

go all motor homie... boost is just going to cause problems in the long wrong.

You didnt mention a tune in there. Thats where you will get more power.....and even more importantly, a more desirable power curve. Also, getting cam gears is pointless unless you tune.
