Thanks guys, i'll be running a high/low boost switch using hondata so i've got two levels.

Nice !!! So how is it to drive ????

Totally insane. VTEC and Boost are made for each other.

It weirdly still has a lot of the characteristics of NA VTEC - but a lot more usable power.
 
Great turbo build here what's your top speed geared to I can't decide what fd to go for in my turbo gearbox build

Thanks mate.

No idea on the top speed, not sure how to test it without getting arrested either...

Yeh tuned on the shitters. 1st and 2nd are pointless. LOL.

Will be setting up boost by gear once i have the 888s on though :win:
 
Beautiful build there. And I´m liking the power curve, looks real useable - provided you have the grip. :D
 
Cheers guys, engine has been pack up and is going up country to the engine builder tomorrow.

V8 Clio... LOL

Best car on ek9.org by far!
 
Started my oil cooler install today. &#65533;&#65533;

 
Are you mounting it with oil ports facing down? Mocal cooler? I know they state there self bleeding so don't suffer from trapped air hence can be mounted in any position but according to other sources better cooling is achieved when the cooler is turned on it's side...

Yep Mocal 13 row with ports down, would of preferred ports up but with the FMIC this is the best place for air flow on my car. Sits dead on behind the grill.

With the honda oil pressure i'm pretty confident about not having any trapped air and i've done some research on it so it should be ok. :nerv:
