    So why not just boost the ls/Vtec?

    Ls/Vtec motors are not the most stable of platforms to use FI on. Cost is the big issue. I could have a built z6 in there for the price it would take to build a stock Ls/vtec. B-series hydro trannys are much more money then a y8/z6 tranny, and much more rare in the us. Just that alone almost makes it worth it in my eyes.

    I also love the idea of rocking a sohc motor in a car that (In america) only came with dohc motors.

            Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
            Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
            Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall
            Torque is how far you take the wall with you

              Aah yes, I seem to have forgotten that little tid-bit. It is a good thing he is upset at me and will not respond though, as I don't think I could handle it.

                  I think that is kind of obvious since it is around 105 octane....

                    I'd strongly suggest doing e-85 in that, especially for a street/strip car... i havent heard of any problems from it, other than having to re-tune a cpl times a year...

                        So when are you going to fix the rust on your del-sol? I seem to remember something about doing it next week in 2oo5..

                        I have four projects going right now, I don't want to spend money where I don't have too. However I am making much more money then I ever have before so they should come around pretty quick.

                                crome pro more then likely. if the blend changes you eather need to back down boost, or retune for the different mixture.

                                this is a free program, so it is not the greatest but it gets the job done.

                                        Now that the flood is gone, it's time to get to work on my cars. The crx and civic are getting dished up on the plate first.

                                        Last night I finished getting the motor together and ready to go in the car. It's a B16a3, my Integra Xsi B16a spun the bearings last year. For a $1,6oo dollar motor from Hmotorsonline I expected it to last more then 1o,ooo miles but what can you do?

                                        I dropped in the motor lastnight. This is what the car looks like today when I stated the wiring. The harness is tucked from last year with the fuse box behind the glove box.

                                        Starting to come together. I get the bumper back from paint tomorrow then the body should be ready to go.
