yea, my coolant level wire broke off the sensor as well. Apparenly a new one for the FD is around $70, but I got one from rotary performance that's made for a 1st gen. The only difference is that the wire is shorter, so you just have to lengthen it, but it works perfect. It was like $17 or so.

Boost would spike to about 13.88lbs and immediately seep to 10psi due to the CRV leaking boost. In this condition, it ran a 12.8 @ 112.

Mods are -
Marvelspeed Raceported motor
Haltech E11v2
Non-sequential stock twins with exhaust leak
Pettit TKT Intake
3" GothamRacing DP + MP
Apex'I N1 Catback
GothamRacing underdrive pullies

With the CRV not leaking, it holds at 16 psi all the way to 8500, but I don't like chancing that much boost with the stock IC and 93 octance.

A stock bodied touring without a wing. Car feels very solid to every speed I've been so far. I'm thinking about creating a flat underbody tray in combination with a rear diffuser for when I want to push it further.

Did that, but I also have a "huge *** gay CF wing" as well for the necessary downforce to keep her firmly planted to the ground, and she felt solid as hell @150 the other day...
