Ordered a few bits today for both cars and booked Betty into DKU to get a full turbo-back system built once the manifold is here. Called around to a couple of remapping places who have a rep for working on Honda's, TDI north just straight out refused to work on it because they'd never done a D-series before, They stated that they only work on K and F series engines even though I had them map my B16 before and "Hondata" is specifically listed on their website
Called Dynodaze and got an astounding "Yes let me know when you're ready" straight away, no F**king around. Perfect.
In other news a CX Racing Ramhorn and a Precision 5858 Roller bearing (.82) turbo is on its way to me from the States, I also ordered a Tial 38mm Waste gate, Greddy Type S BOV and a Skunk2 intake manifold. The 5858 is overkill for 150-200hp aim on low boost from all calculations, but eventually I will be swapping it over to a smaller 4831B turbo and putting the 5858 on the D16. What I ultimately want to do is build two near identical cars making similar power except one being a Deck' the other being a fastback. I will be aiming to pickup another D16W4, Z6 or Y8 and build the block completely but for now a little bit of boost on a Honda will be fine
Think I'll be eating Noodles for a month or two
