Perhaps you don't feel the rush anymore because the ecu is pulling timing?

Can you get some datalogs?

At wide open throttle 4th gear what is your air/fuel ratio?

TO answer some questions, I don't have Hondata yet so I cant take datalogs. A tune is soon on the list. And no I don't have the fidanza flywheel but I do have the UR pullies. I just had them on my weight reduction list as a possibility.

Some miscellaneous items to add but no pics yet:
skunk2 short shift adapter now combined with the T1R
skunk2 oil cap, battery tie down with 92-00 civic posts (stock are short to fit), skunk2 license plate frame lol
removed the extension in my rad hose near the radiator as it was starting to leak, so I had to put more of a bend in my intake tube, probably negligable to useable air flow anyway
Ultra Racing front and rear upper strut bars
dynotune nitrous blow down kit

Ill have some pics soon!

Had it in but it was still too cold for it, had a close call with it being parked outside for a few hrs...didn't want to experience that again! Will go go when it warms up.

So I sold my AEM wideband, I'm considering buying the innovate wideband with nitrous bottle pressure gauge. It has built in safety cut offs for low bottle pressure or lean conditions plus it also has the RPM window switch. Wish I saw this sooner but this will integrate the 2 gauges I want to get, plus I won't need a seperate window switch. Win win!

I've got my nitrous purge kit installed, just need to wire it up. Selling my summit racing window switch and en route is a dynotune nitrous bottle warmer and an ultra racing C pillar bar. Pics soon.

Looking forward to it all.

Stupid question but why would it be useful to have a low bottle pressure cut off? Is it so that your car will not run too rich? How does it determine there is low pressure (Obviously some sort of pressure switch/solenoid but figure I'd ask). I've been fully focused N/A and haven't went over to the nitrous side yet.

You are correct, low pressure usually less than 850 psi I'm assuming means less nitrous for the same amount of enrichment fuel, therefore too rich...which can be damaging too. Plus it means a big drop in power as most recommendations seem to be around 950 psi. It would be controlled by a pressure switch similar to what most good bottle warmers use.

Arm, Warmer, Purge! (Bottle Opener will go on the left side too)



Got more Ultra Racing bars installed and on the way too.

Used nitrous about 6 times, huge improvement but just found out this evening that my bottle heater pressure sensor was sub 900 psi so I set it to 950. Should work even better now. Lots of pics coming soon of miscellaneous items I bought on vacation to japan.

May have an alternator belt starting to squeal, we will see if how it is tomorrow.

Some of my spoils from japan:
JDM gas cap


GD2 interior door panels and headrests, I liked the pattern, unfortunately I had to ship these home and that will take months to arrive with surface shipping and canada posts strike.

Update, after driving my in laws mini van for 5 weeks and coming back to this car it definitely pulls! I just got used to it haha.

Update on the skunk2 exhaust, I almost got scammed by tomssydney@gmail.com claiming he had brand new system for 420 usd shipped. After searching his email I found out he searches for WTB ads and contacts the people with scam emails. Phew! That's ok tho because I need to get that innovate 3893 gauge with failsafe and wideband first anyhow. Soon!

He still has it, I just need that gauge more right now I've decided for nitrous safe use.

The headliner we just glued a stretchy fabric over the stock headliner. There's a fitfreak.net topic on it.

Got the Ultra Racing Room bar modified to fit. Had the adjustment piece lengthened by an inch on each side at a local machine shop. Also had to trim down the rear of the center console and a bit on each pillar trim for a perfect fit. Took a while but it turned out well and is not in the way of your feet or anything either. I like it!

New RCI seats, 10.0 lbs without brackets installed...final weight is 18 lbs driver, and 19 lbs passenger.



New seat covers will be made with this awesome black and white fur material, super pimp! They need to be comfy in order to make up for the hard seats. It's also funny because it matches my greying hair!



GD2 door panels installed with no issues.
