This photo makes christmas look like regular bullshit holiday that work doesnt schedule off.
-note the 60mm WG- Soo the dump tube off a 60mm gate is just over 2&1/4" ID (2.33" to be exact) THINK ABOUT IT. my WG dump tube is bigger than an all motor honda's full exhaust! teehee. Sorry, its the LITTLE things that make me verrry exciiiite.

The exhaust gasses bled out of my wastegate will spool a 67mm quicker than a 2L honda engine. 
No disrespect, I had built some quick turbo hondas back in the day. (mid 10s in a 92 hatch) yada yada (see vid)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYqdsQvznQI and hell do i miss them!! By far the most exciting/wild vehicle i have ever drove, but its just time for some real man ****! They def inspired me to go turbo with my FD even tho when it was an all motor/dry shot ls1, it would walk past my quickest turbo civic anyday. The way i look at it is as follows: Considering i went 10.6s in a civic, the FD has to go deep into the 9s. There is no way around it, i dont care how much more badass the FD looks, it has to turn the numbers!
-Pertaining to the build. I have to re-fab a few things on my truck's suspension this weekend and then i will pull the FD back in the garage and get on it! Not sure if i mentioned it before, but i decided to run full 4" exhaust ( basically straight pipe w/ a bullet resonator whereever i have room) off the already 4" downpipe. I originally planned to merge 4" downpipe to 3" exhaust w/ the current HKS carbon/Ti, but that would be compromising! hahaha. This past october i have owned my FD 10 years and sadly have logged less than 4,500 miles within that time,,, im not gonna lie... You might see a grown man crying on youtube vids when she starts making numbers on the dyno! Been building the hype for too long, lol.
This pic explains why i never really get anything accomplished on the FD. The truck and busa are my daily drivers, which are more CA street legal-ish friendly than the FD. Deep inside the back of my head, i know i am gonna have authority troubles driving the FD on cali streets shaking the ground at stoplights when idleling. However, i know a few ways to play their game and be legit, just more $$$ and time of course. Along with crossed fingers hoping it actualy works!
