this setup is simply amazing, now idk if my clutch is going or not but on the on ramp to the freeway i spun 1st 2nd 3rd 4th and a bit of 5. the BOV sounds amazing and things are great, i just need greddy ultimate with pnp harness (if anyone is sell im very interested) and would love a 3' back exhaust.

highly reccomend vulcan, from the customer support, all my crazy questions and doing AMAZING work, this is the perfect kit to become forced induction

(my friend who owns an RSX-s, someone who has been in some very nice, very fast tuners said that this thing pulls like none other)
very pleased


hopefully photos and video up soon and maby a dyno


Either you have the sh!ttiest tires, or your clutch is slipping. I assure you it's not the power it's making. Not being an **** or anything, just saying, that you can't make that much power to do that and not be running management or that much boost.

Won't argue with that. That's the 2az + boost for you.

Turbo install runs about $700-$800 + price of the kit. We do pretty anything and everything. The majority of our local work is all BMW's and Benz's actually.

Im using Vulcan Turbo turbo components.( IC pipes im gonna have to modify them to mate to the turbo outlet possibly since manifold is diff, oil lines, bov and wastegate)

I just love the look of my manifold/turbo/dp setup

Ive never heard of anyone complaining on the tC manifolds. Just that you need to adjust the dumptube recirculation to line up with the wastegate and then just make one of the holes for the studs on the head a lil bigger.. Not a big deal as I can weld pretty good..

Yea its always been a huge problem for honda with that type of manifold, i havent heard of them on TCs at all.

Matt... how is the car?! Probably didnt drive it much more as it snowed all last night.

Hey brian Do you still have that 2az motor on the stand at your shop. I was thinking that I would send in my manifold, turbo and dp. So, you could match the hot side up perfect so I wouldnt have to mess up your work.. And That way the pipe would be completely powder coated..

Would you be able to determine by making the pipe on the jig the exact way you would need to make the hot pipe differently to get it to connect to the turbo outlet..

Or would my friend Matt have to let you borrow his car . To test fit my pipes and manfold setup..
