Turbo NHBP Build

Felt like i should make a build thread. Put a down payment on December 05, and finally got it July of 06, and loved the car since. MY goal has always been to keep the car stock looking as possible.

Not bad, No Limit also tuned my car and I wasn't extremely happy. Once the FlashPro hits, I will be upgrading my turbo...time to break the 400hp mark!

So your torque steadily declines after 4K? I like the front grille and the sleeper outside look. How's the traction?

lol thats it, i had the same numbers with a manual. I would run around 8 psi pre vtec and after would fall to around 3lbs. With the electronic I hit 10 before and around 8-9 after vtec. Helped out so much

yeah Tq starts to fall off, but not needed once car is moving that speed. Most cars loose Tq towards redline (my car is more dramatic) but it pulls hard to redline for sure. Traction is not even an option in 1st and most of the time in 2nd unless its hot out and have spun tires already.
