92HondaEX Official Turbo Project Thread.... (56K Warning)

[Clueless]

There is so much I did since starting this project some two months ago, I hardly know where to began... I have to say pictures are worth a thousand words... so I'll start off with some pictures before the project so you may have an idea what my car was like before project started. By the way, this thread will be updated as I go.


Stock:









Slightly Modified:























Thanks for peeking...

Finally got around to pulling my head off since I thought I bent some valves, to my relief there doesn't seem to be any... This took some five hours cause I had to go to sears for some tools I didn't have that made the job easier.



Here are my cylinders in order(1-4):









Some head shots:










Thanks for looking...

starting out the same way i did....make sure to do all the seals on that side of the motor tho. Cam seal, balance shaft seals and retainer, main seal, balance shaft belts, timing belt, water pump, lower spark plug tube seals, and etc. Any plans for building the block at all?

So far I have a valve cover gasket set and the oil pan seal... I'm still looking to get others. I was going to rebuild the block this summer, but since I have a spare motor in slightly worse shape this, I'm gonna build that up and drive on this one. What the best way to remove the cam shaft without causing a big mess?

I'm shooting for mid November, that should give me enough time to complete it, install it, and tune it. Right now I'm using a 14b(going to be rebuilt), dsm(already fitted), 460cc injectors, uberdata(maybe crome), maybe ostrich, uh....oh yeah, a Turbo XS bov! Anybody want a dsm intercooler?

A ghetto short shifter.... I cleaned it up and have a better picture of it.

not to be a hater or anything, but what is the point of having a gauge down there? to look at it you have to take your eyes completely off the road... seems like it kind of defeats the purpose

True....but I wanted something that's can't be seen by other drivers, hence, a sleeper...

Got the camshaft off and almost ready to ship to delta cam for a regrind...noticed there's some wear on the junals holding the cam shaft...hmmm...
