Guest Harris92 Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 Nice traps speeds. Never heard of someone putting a turbo on a type r engine before. Sounds like a very cool car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HotCarl Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 Originally posted by Skidmark: It will net about the same results as building a gsr turbo, but that's a $3,000 engine compared to the $5,000+ itr one.. Taking an itr engine and detuning it n/a-wise to build for boost just isn't the best route, but aside from cost it sounds like a wicked setup.If this is true, why not just take the ITR engine out, sell it to fund a GSR turbo engine? anyway, welcome your car sound's very nice.

Guest Harris92 Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 Originally posted by FUPA HATER: chris mills had the vortech on his type r, right before it was totaled[/QB]Yeah, Ive heard of boosted ones (like Mills supercharged type r)just never one that had a turbo.

Guest BoostedITR41 Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 I can't figure out why the pics won't work can someone help me out? here is my set up as of last year: 18G on greddy manifold Greddy "big" FMIC inline pro head gasket and block gaurd 2.5" DP 3" exhaust 450cc injectors afc fmu 255lph pump missing link act clutch and pro lite flywheel stock block and head times were on 1-1.1bar of boost(HG drops compression a full point) when I pulled the motor apart it was still good as new but I did want to bulletproof it so that is why I did the set up below. I live south of the burgh but my GF is in grad school at pitt now so as the weather gets nicer I might be out and about down that way. if you see my car say hi. here is my new set up: pretty much the same only I have: golden eagle sleeved 81mm block eagle rods endyn pistons hondata 4bd 3 bar map sensor 880cc precision injectors endyn catch can Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had about $4k in my set up with the parts I used. edit: thanks for all the compliments guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devils Advocate Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 Sweet car, man. Love to see someone who was successful going a different route. For all of you bandwagon-hopping, sack-riding,self-pitying honda nerds who whine constantly about how this board hates anything that doesn't have a jegs sticker... Go screw yourselves.
