I though about taping it, but there isn't much material to tap and I'm sure it would probably break/leak down the road. Though about jb weld but I know its gona get a ton of vibration and will probably leak as well. So I looked for the eBay specials and there about $65 shipped. For another $40 I can get a brand new one from the parts store so I got one coming and it should be here around 2:30 today. So with new radiator fan ties in hand, I'm just waiting for the radiator to show up.

Fill up the rad, took it out for a quick spin. Boost cut @ 3psi hits about 3k. So u bumped it to 5, then 8 then 10, then 12, then 13...lol and I hit boost cut about 7500, rev limit is @ 8k. So I decided to stop there since there's no one to call if something fucks up....lol Car is a total handful @ 12psi.....lol 12psi from the hx35 feels about like 20psi in my crx with the old setup. Time to tweek a few things but overall I can't wait to do a little street tuning

I'm gitty like a little school girl right now. I'll try to get some ripper this weekend if it drys up!

Hard to tell when its wet out, but It fucking flys through the rpm range. I can tell that its gonna be a rocket once I get traction

nice bet it's fun with 12cm housing. How quick is the spool?

ratcityrex · « **Reply #125 on:** April 25, 2012, 11:58:39 PM »

Well I initially hit the 3psi boost cut b4 3k. So full boost was supper quick. B4 I knew it I was at 13psi boost cut @ 7500. So I didn't even get to hit the rev limiter. And then I realized that I still have my .cv valve hooked up and no crank case evacuation. So I stopped ripping on it. But it will rocking by the weekend for sure.

Well got home from work last night and checked the cardboard under the car to see if there were any drips or leaks and it was dry as could be. So todays goal is to get the catch can mounted and the lines ran and if the roads dry up start a new basemap

ratcityrex · « **Reply #127 on:** April 28, 2012, 01:19:45 PM »

Well, new radiator is in. Along with turbo and exhaust. Put new drivers side axle in. Passenger side will be in stock today. So got board and decide to fish top hats up. Turned out fucking tits!

ratcityrex · « **Reply #128 on:** May 01, 2012, 02:08:41 PM »

got everything all together now I gotta just figure out my wste gate issues. have a 12 pound spring in there and hold until 5000 rpm and after 5000 rpm creeps up until I hit boost cut @ 14lbs. so I put a 4 pound spring in it at a hold until 5000 rpm and then climbs 12-13lbs. When I had the wg apart yesterday I noticed that the valve was sticking and woukd only lift about 1/4" and then get stuck. So I cleans everything up but it still creeps. So I think wg might be fucked. So time to slap the parts on my parts wg and see if it works. I'll post up later.

JaredKaragen · « **Reply #129 on:** May 01, 2012, 04:31:10 PM »

i was about to ask if you got any dice with those adjustments...

ratcityrex · « **Reply #130 on:** May 01, 2012, 05:54:29 PM »

Yeah u ran the cal yesterday. Seems pretty good, but a little lean in boost. Like 12.5-12.7 so ad soon as the road drys up and I get the wg creep shit figured out ill shoot u another log.

ratcityrex · « **Reply #131 on:** May 01, 2012, 07:59:16 PM »

So I can't figure it out. The boost holds at 4lbs and then creeps to by 6500 where I then hot boost cut. I just don't know what the fuck is up......

jdmhatchracer94 · « **Reply #132 on:** May 02, 2012, 02:15:43 AM »

you runnin vac top or bottom port? done remember try switchin it? my gate used the top port with no controler.

bigdaddyvtec · « **Reply #133 on:** May 02, 2012, 02:32:19 AM »

bpttpm port. Make sure the new diaphrams hat is all the way down and those fucking set screwss are tight. If ther hat "wobbles" on the WG valve, theres an issue. It happened to me.

ratcityrex · « **Reply #134 on:** May 02, 2012, 09:24:20 AM »

Set screws are tight like a 14 year old. No wobble, and yes, its on the bottom port with no boost controller yet.

ratcityrex · « **Reply #135 on:** May 02, 2012, 01:08:27 PM »

Well I robbed my friends cdm wg that's brand new sitting in the box in the corner of my garage. The one I origanly stole parts from. Put it all back to the way it was right out of the box, and slapped it on the car. Holds 10lbs from 5500-8000 now with no creep. So time to put the dump tube back on and set up the boost controller. Slap the catch can lines on and then order up a axle seal for the pass side, because its got a little leak from the trans.

JaredKaragen · « **Reply #136 on:** May 02, 2012, 11:16:40 PM »

For the lean-ness, select the affected boost column and up, and give it 4 "increase value" button clicks. Select next column and up, do the same.

Good I got it ballparked. It's a crapshoot sometimes to get the right park but I'm glad it was at least a safe afr.

Once u get it solid, enable VTEC and you should easily be able to get that tuned out.

And after afr is Done, I'll do some timing magic for you

ratcityrex · « **Reply #137 on:** May 02, 2012, 11:28:02 PM »

Sweet deal man. I'll try and knock some out this weekend. And let u know how it goes.

crxvtec91 · « **Reply #138 on:** May 03, 2012, 09:17:15 AM »

Oh yea!

ratcityrex · « **Reply #139 on:** May 03, 2012, 09:09:45 PM »

Catch can is in! Need to get a couple of heat slaves to put over the catch can lines. Couldn't find any braided line local for a decent price so went with this veal. Would rather use garden hose if it didn't get so hot.

Also replaced pass side axle seal. Bitch was leaking pretty good. Seems good now though. Getting a alignment tomorrow, and if the roads dry up I might get a touch of basemap clean up action!

skaterdudz02 · « **Reply #140 on:** May 03, 2012, 09:37:29 PM »

Shit looks dope.

ratcityrex · « **Reply #141 on:** May 06, 2012, 10:15:29 PM »

Well, I started a new ectune basemap. Because u didn't like my injector offset that I had in there and It keep throwing my shit off. Think I got it dialed in pretty good to. Also pulled a little less timing this time in boost. Only pulling 1* per lb instead of 1.25* Also made a bracket for the lowes air compressor boost controller and got it mounted. Also got the Holset cracking out about 16lbs of boost. Fucker screams. Excited for next weekend to get here to have Dave take a look at this whore and see what kind of numbers it can put down. Oh, and also want to crank it up until I need race fuel or my clutch slips. But we will see. So far the car feels really fucking sting on the top end. Rolls into boost nice.
