why can't I hear the blow off valve? I know the turbo is there, I just like the sound of BOV's, not the super obnoxious ones though.
when you get some new rims/tires, I'm curious to see your 1/4 times if you plan on taking it to a strip. One day I'll get a turbo , until then I'm

I guss the camera doesn't pick it up very well. Just normal camera(not for great sound or video) I'll get one from the outside. Just as soon as I convince my gf to take the video as a drive by. Maybe I'll do it tomorrow.

your running a horribly crappy emanage type base tune, i wouldnt trust that farther than i could spit thats why i want numbers, youll see when the tuner starts playing with your timing among other things that the basemap hadn't touched.
and im curious what those r18s can do... duh? and numbers are not braggery you have a clean boosted civic, thats braggery! the numbers are just the insurance that your clean boosted civic is running to its best most efficiant potential.
swapping a motor is HARD, trust me

The tune is better than you think. It runs really well. Maybe could get more performance for sure.
There is an oil burn problem right now though. He won't tune the car until we get it fixed. I talk to others on 8thcivic.com who have the same kit. I installed a catch can setup and that isn't stopping the oil burn. I'm waiting for an oil restrictor for the turbo, because we think oil is seeping through the seals causing oil burn. But the turbo may be damaged too. So I'll be swapping that when TSI sends me a new one after we determine that is the problem. Then it will be tuned. Then I will have numbers.
