Turbo coming soon to a Prelude near you!
My setup is coming along, and hopefully I'll have it finished(and RUNNING) before we have our little dragva meet 
T3 60 trim .52/.63 AR from a 300z
Socketed P06, got a ZIF socket but the piece of shit broke when i was inserting it
gotta order another...
Turbo manifold is on the way, as is my EPROM programmer, using Uberdata, already got a basemap.. Anyone have a welder and wanna come to my house to weld up my downpipe piping for free?

Re: Turbo coming soon to a Prelude near you!

Re: Turbo coming soon to a Prelude near you!
Why would you run water injection? With how cheap FMIC's or any IC for that matter is, as well as the mandrel bends to rig one up, why bother? If you still feel the need to run WI why not run it after the IC? I'm sure itll be nice for ya though, I just still would stick with a true IC.

Well I'm not gonna be running much.. maybe 7 psi in the end when i tune it, but the main reason is i don't want it to be seen, and there is absolutely no way to fit a FMIC without cutting the bumper on 4g ludes.. I don't really wanna cut shit up
plus I can get a holley water injection kit on ebay for like $50 compared to $200+ for a decent intercooler and then more piping etc.. for the low boost I'm doing I'm sure it will be fine..
