APEXi WS Exhaust
Solo Short Shifter (Integra)
DC Sports Header
Powerslot Slotted Rotors (Front), AutoZone (Rear)
AEM Pads
CTR Intake Cam
Knock Sensor
Skunk2 Cam Gears
and hopefully figure out code 41 (o2 sensor)
Dyno Tuning
That's all :D
I was debating if I should paint the car but I would rather have her running good before I do that, so this will be it for a while then I should be working on the body and interior next year hopefully.

Future Si... what is the Apexi WS inlet/piping size?

Yeah but I had to delay it since I have a few CEL codes to work out and I figured it would be better to have it dynoed after I have the car running clean and all the new parts installed, I figured it would kinda defeat the purpose to tune it after I add all the parts.
I will hit the dyno though so I will post the results when I get there :)

The CTR and ITR exhaust cams are the same...What do you think all these mods will put your 1/4 mile time?

What all have you done to try to fix the CEL 41? I had one of those a while back, and I just had to reconnect one of the 4 wires.

Replace the 02 with a different one, check the wires running from the main harness down the the 02. Took off the a/f meter, check the wire at the ecu to make sure it was in.
I'm basically kinda stuck on what to do, did one of your wires come loose and you just reconnected it? Where was it located.

Well my setup will be basically the same but with different products. The only thing I'm really adding is a cam, cam gears, and tuning.
So I'm hoping for consistant low 15's, not too sure if I could get 14's but that would be nice (14.999) :) I think I will run drag radials later in the year, skunk2 manifold, and thinner headgasket (maybe a b18 block with build internals). So only time will tell.

*COUGHTURBOKITCOUGH* Dude, Ted. All that stuff is really awesome, but You're 700-600 short of a turbo kit. I can sell you a used Drag Gen III kit for GS-R w/ GReddy profec B boost controller, Autometer boost gauge w/ pod, MSD SCI ignition box w/ blaster 3 coil, inline fuel pump, and 12:1 FMU For $2500 buxors. Can you say 12's?

That's what I was thinking but the turbo kit will be almost a grand more than what I'm spending. Is this your old kit off the car? $2500 is still a bit much for me.

Nah, I bought it and will sell it because it's not what I'm looking for. Alright, 2400 homeboy-hookup. I can understand if you want to stick w/ the cam idea, but from my experience turbo is the best bang for the buck. Before the LS/VTEC, I had a B18C1 w/ .10mm overbore SRP 11:1 pistons, Eagle rods, CTR Intake cam, cam gears, etc etc and dyno tuning, and it put down 172whp I believe after tuning. It was alright, but it ran like a high 15 in that chasis w/ Nitto 555R's. I wasn't as good a driver back then, I was like 17 or something like that, but just my experience.
But again, it's your car, and I hate when people tell me what to do.

Yeah I know I will be slow but that's all I can afford right now :) If I could get a kit for $1500 I would be all over it.... you got me thinking though.

Honestly dude, save your cash, and get turbo later. It's well worth it. When you get cams, then you have to worry about tuning, VAFC, FPR, etc right away before you can see a benefit. The 243° duration and 11mm lift isn't too huge of a step. ITR is 240° and the same lift, and the exhaust cams are the same like previously noted.

I agree. Unless your dead set on N/A ofcourse. If your having any second thoughts then save for a bit and get that kit from Chris:)

Forced induction is the only way.......and like everyone else said, put that money away and dont touch it and just save for a turbo. You wont see a noticable gain tuning the car now...........just my .02 though.

this is good advice. at this altitude you have to find the air to go fast and blowers and turbos are the only way to go. turbos seem to have more bang for the buck. saving money and waiting to do the mods sucks but in the long run it is usually the way to go. good luck!
