Well I just installed my toys and WOW its an all new car.. Toys include fmic(wagener motorsports), custom sri(wagner motorsports), mbc (boostscience), k&n filters for sri and type s bov. This car pulls like a mother #@%ker.. Anyways im still at stock boost I think. I dont have a boost guage to tell so I turned the boost all the way down (boost I mean).. Putting boost gauge on as soon as I get it in the mail. Well just wanted to say im happy with my new toys!!!

ps the intercooler looks wicked awsome, sorry no pics YET!! gotta fix my cam.

peace

yeah im hopeing to get it in today or tomorrow.. I just figured I would install the mbc with my fmi to save some time later.. let me ask you this turing the knob all the way out or unscrewing it thats low boost right? I need it to be low to be on the safe side untill I add boost gauge.

S-AFC? Good Luck. Just make sure you got a Honda or DSM guy around to buy it once she don't work!

Not trying to rain on your parade. But I've tried it with some of the best electrical and tuning guys around (Yep we know our shit in Canada too).

I hope that someone proves me wrong someday. But I'm not going to hold my breath.
