ATTN: Barney1omm T2 pics inside
btw , that hatch dude is my buddy phil{ just a little confused .lol } hes done most the work ,on modifing my 7 ,,,,,great guy. he used to have a white t2 ,you tube video , rx7 4th gear pull...... bob and robert no him well. boost guage jinx............................10mm
I'm not ******* on all hondas. Some are very quick....in a strait line....If he can get it to hook. but most are slow kids with even slower cars. I've always had a predjudice against those honda hatches. I've only seen one that was alright looking. I'd never own one. I like to half *** beat them then refuse to go again. cause its not worth the gas just to make them cry. I hate when honda kids cry.
I wasn't going to modify the T2 much, but now I just don't think I can help myself. I'll be doing some studying. I'll be getting a FMIC asap. I hate the intercooler on top of the engine. I doubt I can afford a V mount. I've been tossing around ditching the power steering and AC, but I kind of like the way it feels. I just really want the open engine bay like my FB has. I think I will ditch the AC, I'm sure one or the other has to go for a front mount anyway. Then I think I'll get a water injection system, some kind of engine management, bigger injectors, MSD or Crain box, and raise the boost. that sould keep me around 2 grand ish in parts. Probably have a manual boost controler, and find as much used parts as I can.
Can anyone tell me how much boost I can run and keep this exhaust (duel 2.5" catback) I really like the tone and sound. I enjoy being able to hear everything besides my loud *** exhaust. all the bends look mandrel bent. I'm willing to pull cats, and run a custom down pipe. I'm not looking for tons of power, but more.
No boost gauge yet, I cant afford 30 bucks at the moment. I cant even afford 20 for a cheepo ebay one. They have "nitrous" brand boost gauges for 20 bucks at harbor frieght. Probably a waist of 20 bucks and even more unreliable as the stock gauge.

I'll race you in the qtr with my 69 superbee.... It will be on the road in about 6month.. 1900lbs, 540HP.......
Or i'll race you in my T2 FB........
Or give me to the end of summer and my 1600lbs, Monster J-port T2 track car will be done and we'll have a go in that...
And i am always down to race you in my catalina, its pretty much bone stock minus some bolt on and exhaust work, i might still take ya, with its 5600lbs ***...lol...ok probably not
Or you can race my wifes 63 Gp, its got a nice bored GTO 389
Hell i'll race you in my suburban for ***** and giggles, we'll call it a "practice run" though....(it does have a hypertech chip in it though, and that gave it many horsey's)
But you will take my suby and my SWB chevy.......

v mounts are nice for throttle response, but is going to cost way more. We are relocating the battery on barneys car, so we can fit the piping. Look into a way to add more fuel before you severly crank the psi up, the fcd already on the car may not be dong you any good because you don't know how much boost you are putting in, if you are craming more 8.5psi on stock ecu and fuel system you are goig to have more problems than beating a Honda. Stock radiator shroud and radiator will work fine for cooling mods. Water/meth injection is not a bad idea, usually only used for high boost applcations and is pretty spendy. Just make sure you get a boost guage, don't want to find you are having a boost creep 
make sure well I recommend a turbo timer, you need to pet her warm up and cool down with ample time. First things first is going competely through the engne bay and changes fluids and lines, but this a not your first seven so I'm sure you know.

Yeah, I'm not modding her yet. Next week I'll have gas money to be rice hunting. again I'm not ******* on all hondas. I use to have a prelude. It was a cool car. It wasn't fast, but it handled really good for fwd. still did a 120 with a stretched throttle cable. I wan't high boost. not right now, but soon. I should be getting my financial aid soon. I don't mind not having anything but car parts. I find ways to feed myself. boost gauge is first thing. I'm not sure if the injectors or stock. I've got a bag of 4 injectors that look stock. I havent had enough time to take it appart and check to see if theres aftermarket injectors in the engine. If the car was mine when injectors were replaced theyd be aftermarket. but I don't know if ***** would put stockers, or aftermarket.
BTW my buddy is thinking of doing a AWD Honda hatch. that will be a bad *** honda.

Interiors got a carbon seat, battery, dash, carpet, headliner....
The heavy things are: The chassy(unibody, c frame =light), outer metal(mopar has the thinnest metal in the 60's). the glass, and the bumpers...
I took the car to a weight station to get its numbers without the motor and tranny, seat, battery, rad and on STEELIES, and it weights 1136lbs... So all said and done, the car will be around 1900 and some change...(not including my body weight, but thats not much,lol)
The car was not that heavy to begin with....
Your car: Curb weight 2,625 lb (1,191 kg) - 3,071 lb (1,393 kg)
The Stock superbee: 3240 Lb (1470 kg)

Why don't you just ride on your wires back the way you're talking everything you touch becomes fast. I'll take on anything within my power range, no this doesn't mean your wifes uncles dogs cousins 200 pound car with 500 horse in it. Guess a lot of ppl hate hondas, I personally hate the beaners ones or the ones bought built already, but when you do all the engine work yourself you gain respect for them, I still have a love for sevens just wanted to learn about piaton engines. You can race my friends chevy luv with a 383 built stroker motor with all your toys. I'm not saying my hatch is the fastest in the world, just saying I can beat those two, barney has been waiting since 1960 to race my hatch lmao
You should totally pm me some pics of that luv though, would "luv" so see it
ok that was bad....And not everything i touch is fast, just everything i own gets 2 much of my monthly income,lol.....
And i am sorry, i do hate honda's......

Are you both going to be off on the 5th. Its a saturday. I need to take a long drive in it before I give DEQ a shot. I took the T2 up germantown last night. I was easy on her though. I really like drivng that road in the FB. cars soo light it just flys around those tight corners. and its loud, so all wildlife leave the area, before I'm even close. I was worried about hitting a dear or other animal.
I use to have a chevy LUV, It was a cool truck. It was a 2WD version. My original plans where just as your friend has his with a 383 stroker, but then I decided to do a brigeport 13B turbo. then I went camping and my neighbor had it towed.....So no more LUV. I loved that car though. It was really a clean body also. no rust. I'll be getting revenge sooner or later.

Def get a nice set of injectors if you find out those are not the aftermarket units, or you can send the bag of the mystery injectors out to rc and they can upgrade the cc's, but like always aftermarket injectors work differently than regular injectors. I paid 200 for 4 brand new rc750's, bruce paid aroud the same on ebay for 2.
Holla on the financial aid, Mines been on hold because of that too, plus I just found out that I still owe the hospital 9 hundred
they told me I was good, then said bam theres another bill; so be grateful. I have the almighty harbor freight boost guage in my car, it works just fine and gives vacuum too, before you hit any psi. I imagine the only thing about the guages is the lifespan on them. Just make sure that you worry about intake temps more than boost. If you really want the horsepower than upgrade the turbo and keep the same psi its running. Your can sounds fun, just dont drive it like Bruce hahahah 
Hatches are fun, everyone says why the hell did you covert, well when I was driving slow to college and draining a quarter of a tank one way, **** got spendy, and truth is a hatch can still get 25 mpg highway with boost...thats the only reason. I miss kicking the rear end out
but my brothers looking into a fb or fd so Ill still get to drive one
RWD FTW.... Weight displacment is key...I've seen a 800HP FWD eclipse get destroyed by a 260hp RWD 7.....
You should totally pm me some pics of that luv though, would "luv" so see it ok that was bad....
And not everything i touch is fast, just everything i own gets 2 much of my monthly income,lol.....

And just like when your on jury duty, people with prejudices don't get to partake in the trial...haha. I used to drive around in my seven and gice the thumbs down to honda hatch and beaner mobiles, but now I got one and cant do that.
The fact is I love pretty much every car; if I had a monthly income such as you, everything I would touch would get a touch of fast "luv" as well. The fact remains that I do not have that much money a month coming in, so for now Ill build the turbo hatch and hope for good gas mileage on the highway...haha
To each their own...and BTW ask barney10mm....Im rocking the rotary love stickers on the hatch so everyone knows that im a rotorman at heart
just had to see what the hell this hatch craze is about 
haha
well . i do drive like i stole. thats for sure...im off on the 5th, my t2 2825 lbs . btw joe if u didnt have SO MUCH **** u could afford a grarge .that does fall down when mother nature blows a little..lol:} 10mm

I think he is doing a real time AWD. He told me all about it a few weeks ago, but I was only half *** listening. I just want to do the welding on it. I'm suppose to go help him sometime, but our schedule's haven't let that go down yet. I cant believe my schedule of doing almost nothing can interfere with something.
Also I don't really care about gas, but my girlfriend yells at me. the first day I went through just about a hole tank. I didn't even drive much. But I havent got to drive her all day. I'm going out. She's been yelling at me about how much gas I've been going through. The FB got about 20MPG average, and I drove her hard. I though turbos got slightly better milage, since they run lower RPM on average.
But the 20 dollar harbor freight works good? I was thinking the numbers would be off. I want a little more relyability. can somone post a pic of where I'm supose to t the vacuum line? to put it in. I don't want to cut tons of lines trying to figure it out.

much less. The FB's get around 17 to 20 stock on a good day. I drive the **** out of mine and Have mech secounds so I'm dumping fuel every time I press the gas. but the open exhaust, and weight reduction make it so it averages 20mpg on every tank. I think its becuase the FC weighs so much more.
