if it has enough fuel, just as long as any other...

 

Me, I'll have it running again tommorow night.

 

Yep, I wasn't expecting much out of it. Hey, a little trial and error here and there doesn't hurt anything right

Atleast I get to change myoil pan gasket

 

So do you know any numbers for your setup as of now? Or have just gone around kicking everyone's butt?

- Steiner

 

I don't have any numbers as of then. I do have the butt dyno though. I have drag radials on my car. If I punch the throttle while cruising in 3rd gear then car will haze the tires. It's a little spooky for me though. I'm guessing it was around 540 rwhp.

I'm taking a break right now from cleaning my rotors A little bit of carbon build up

 

Damn making drag radials slip. You got some torque don't ya. What are you using to clean the motor up with? And what was Shaolin's website again?

- Steiner

 

already? wasnt it a fresh motor?

It's go about 3K on the motor. This is the first time I've cleaned them and with how rich I was running for awhile I think this is normal. I also drove the car 30 mins home after the seals broke so there was alot of unburt fuel shooting in there.

 

How bad is the damage? Is the turbo still good? Oh yeah thanks for the site.

- Steiner

 

Damage is what was expected. One hurley seal destroyed and a dented rotor. The turbo is perfect

 

hahah
you got nas's affirmative action as the music on that page. frresssshhh

 

what made you go with the hurley seals? Ever consider using the Ianetti ceramics? - not only are they stronger but they have increased performance from 6-10k rpm which you could probably be running with custom porting.

 

still wanting more pics...


I envy you damnit...


If you come to dallas... I wanna ride!

I have broken a total of 6 hurley seals. I have known they were junk for awhile I was just replacing them one by one with mazda seals. I'm nutty like that I know. Ianetti are pretty expensive, I might try that later on down the road. I'm pretty sure mazda seals will do me fine

 

You'll have a MUCH harder time breaking the 1 peice 3mm units as they're much stronger than stock...right now I'm debating on whether or not to get them and what kind (2mm, 3mm, 1 2 or 3 peice), I plan to run around 450-500rwhp max at no more than 8krpm. So I might see a little bit of the advantages but not nearly as much as someone who's building their car (and porting their engine) for pure power. Good Luck with your project!

 

Just took a look at that shaolin racing weblink...you seem to know, as far as I can tell in this thread, what you're talking about. Why then do you hang around little ricer boys and their $50,000 civics? (yep, it's still a civic after $15,000 of unnecessary plastic and carbon fiber and another $10,000 for platinum headers and maybe even a turbo to go with that high compression motor!) Wouldn't you rather have a FASTER, BETTER HANDLING, MORE LUXURIOUS, WELL ENGINEERED performance car for that money?! "No way man, I'm down with the import scene!" It seems stupidity is contagious...

Seriously, why would you associate with such people?

 

Heh, I'm just friends with some of those guys. Nothing more, nothing less

 

Well, as long as you're not "in to that sort of thing"

 

OOOOOOOOOoooooooooo! I wanna have T51r kai

 

Not me, noway jose!

 

It's too big for you little girl

 

haha

 

very clean install
