He does but not on here his is on 9thgen! It's a really good build thread lots of pics and videos as well. So Gsquared I'm really worried about because he is using the GTX turbo so even more power

Yeah I went with the GTX3071R, I can't wait for the results. At the moment I will be limited at 9PSI because I have the stock MAP sensor. I am ordering the Hondata 4 Bar and Gasket soon and will be putting those in soon after. I will have the results for you guys based on the Dyno tune that they do and I will be using that tune until I get the sensor and gasket and then I am going to tune with Vit. I'll try to post up my graphs as soon as I get them for you all! I will also be going to Palm Beach International Raceway to do the 1/4. (Please note you will have to take my nonexistant drag skills into account when you see the times.)

EDIT: Not looking good for BBG by the way: "Boost control needs a PWM output. The 2006 ECU had an unused PWM output; so we could add boost control. The 2012+ ECU does not appear to have any PWM outputs we can use."

Well I'm glad you are trying the GTX3071R! It will be great info for the community. Truly it will be! We will let your bad passes go at the track if its first time with a car with that much power it's going to be extremely hard to handle. But you got it just going to take practice for sure.

Well that sucks if our Ecu doesn't have the PWM! That is really going to turn me away from the PRL kit. That is going to be way to much power in 1-2 and sometimes 3rd gear as well. That is going to make the car almost useless until 4 and 5 gear!

Yeah that reply from Hondata made me quite sad. I was really hoping for BBG support... :(

The standard turbocharger supplied with the PRL kit is a Precision 5858 journal bearing turbo, not ball bearing. The guy with the white Si sedan making a 420whp edyno has the 5858 journal bearing turbo. Just wanted to clear that up.

That's really is making the CTE kit more of a good buy for me and my needs! I would like to have some type of control of traction in the lower gears.

Yes his turbo is the journal bearing turbo. Did I really say ball bearing. Sorry on that! :)

They will both be TW Si Sedans! Won't be able to say that much longer haha. But yes, that is definitely journal bearing and not ball bearing.

Also Six_speed_demon I'm hoping I will be able to have some decent traction by not going all out in first/second much. Maybe Hondata will figure out a way to make it work with our cars. That was their response to me but who knows if that is where they stop their research on the issue or not.

I agree I hope they do not stop the research here! Boost by gear is very important it really is a way to save the engine and trans. What the status of your car?

Just went by and they had a guy out sick who had been working on it so progress was a bit slower today unfortunately. I don't think I'm going to have it tuned until I get the sensor and the gasket too, so I have to find a vendor that has them at Hondata prices soon. I will be running off the basemap until then. The car is estimated for Friday now. They are also changing the location of the Oil dump.

Really interested in where they locate the oil return/ feed! But I'm not feel to great myself either I swear it's something going around. But for the Hondata sensor you can order it from clubrsx I believe it's where I got mine

Are the map sensors from an 8th gen the same? If so I've got a hondata 4 bar that I don't need anymore.. Practically brand new.
