Hi Manny! Nice to have you amongst us! Did you have your manifold custom made or can you guys buy tubular mani's like that?

Hey Manny! Welcome. You get my reply back from TO.com?

There are a couple guys that do up manifolds for our motors. I believe that is a WickedEPRacing manifold. If it is then that is the manifold that sparked my whole turbo charged fettish. There was a group buy I was in that took long so I took that cash and just bought some lower budget stuff and went to town from there.

Manny, what you boostin' with that now? Stock internals/compression ratio still?

Welcome Manny:D
Your car is the reason I have been chasing the ep82 quadlight front clip.
That bumper might as well be a unicorn. That engine bay looks the part too,
like that custom intake manifold. Again welcome to DIYTuning.

thanks guys!!

accord2nrz:yea i had those manifolds custom made..

dzaster:thank you sir i got your reply and got the tps going on the emb..so hopefully in 2-3weeks up and running and tuning away..actually both intake and exhaust manifolds were custom made by my little brother he has a fab shop and he's done all my work so there one off pieces ill try to post up more pics of the manifold builds..
yea the motor is still a stock 5e-fhe no work internally whatsoever and going to push 28-32psi this time around with c16 before i went up to 28 on 91octane it ran real hard but it was on the stock tb and acis manifold so now hopefully it has alot more on top-end and just waiting for the other ECU from SPI with a raised rev limiter and we'll see how it goes...

kennymp3: thanks bro yea i was lucky when i got that second clip and it came complete with the whole front end on there.. i still have my type1 headlight and grill just no bumper that one was cool too. something different i guess lol.. in the process of cleaning up the engine bay wire tuck and repaint a new valve cover with new color and venting and eventually outer paint..

thanks again guys for the welcome :cool:

OMG the beauty under hood. I love it. Man I know should have just started to buy turbo parts here and there I would probably have some kind of turbo on my car by now. But no still no boost on the neon.
