PRL Motorsports Turbo Kit

Let me be the first to say this, but we've tested deatschwerks injectors several times, and even recently I've gotten a few customers that wanted to try them -- they are terrible injectors. The idle and closed loop performance is garbage (misfires like crazy, unsteady idle, unsteady AFR, bucking in extreme cases). This is not DW hate either -- I love their fuel pumps and recommend them to everyone. I have a DW300 in my DC2 and two DW300 in my FG2. Our feedback to DW on their injectors was sent to them over a year ago -- and NOTHING has changed about their injectors (in fact our feedback didn't seem to be appreciated all that much -- honesty hurts I guess), a year later their injectors are still bad. Stick with the proven Bosch EV14 injectors if you want a SMOOTH running car in ALL running conditions.

Here's some more info: http://www.8thcivic.com/forums/forced-induction-nitrous/251091-id1000-vs-dw1300-showdown.html
 
they said on facebook 270hp at the wheels on only 4psi so far. they're going for 11psi tomorrow!!!! I'm gonna guess 415 at the wheels
 
Results are in ....

PRL Motorsports Turbo system with Precision billet CEA 5858, T3 .82AR turbine housing, PRL Motorsports 3" exhaust, ID1000 fuel injectors, Deatsch Werks DW65C fuel pump, and Hondata Flash Pro

Tuning done at 4.5psi with conservative A/Fs at 11.2-11.6 using stock intake manifold.

I saw on Facebook that the clutch went boom, huh? I figured the stocker would hold more power. Nice numbers though.
 
Minor slip in 5th gear on the dyno. We want to see what she would hold so that you guys would be in the know. Competition Clutch Stage 4 6 pad rigid and OE 8th Gen Civic SI flywheel to be installed and back to the rollers next week for higher boost results. We want to see how far we can take the stock intake manifold.
 
8th gen vs 9th gen torque comparison ...

Just a little comparison here. Its a little biased due to boost levels but lets look at the big picture ... Bigger motor, longer intake runners, shorter exhaust path with the single port outlet head all equal beter low end power and turbo response. You can see that with half the boost we are only 34ft/tq away from the 2.0L motor when its run at 9psi and given the fact that we are seeing a torque gain of 20ft/lbs per pound of boost we will have a torque monster on our hands with the 2012 car!!

Now you can see why we are experiencing clutch slip ... call it a good thing!!!


2007 Civic Si equipped with PRL Motorsports turbo system, 1000cc injectors, 3" exhaust, and Hondata ... Competition Clutch twin plate in this guy too
vs
2012 PRL Motorsports test mule

Both cars have the exact same turbo, intercooler, piping diameter, wastegate, BOV, etc

2007 @ 9psi vs 2012 @ 4.5psi

Number are looking good cant wait to see the final results. How was the install with the whole kit on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the most difficult?
 
Good work guys. Thanks for taking the hit on the clutch. I knew it would not hold mine slips now like crazy. I also can't wait to see what the stock internals will hold.

it's hard for us to say since we do this every day, but i won't say it's any less than a 5 to install. it's not like an old EG civic or integra turbo kit, but there are worse cars to work on than these. It's still a honda, so basically, your 10mm, 12mm, 14mm 17mm and 19mm are going to be your best friends.
