Hi, my name is Pete. This is my second Accord.

nice coupe its a great start man

question, did that voltage stabilizer make any difference at all?

[abdielitopr]

nice....looks clean man..keep up the good work!

[f20baccord]

nice work mang

[cb7wagonPL]

thanx jTUNEDsedan, blackcb7, abdielitopr and f20baccord

as for the Buddy Club voltage stabilizer i think it was worth it. the car idles very smooth now and the acceleration is a lot smoother. One thing that i was suprised by is how much better my radio sounded at higher volumes. before it used to distort and now its nice and clean. power wise i cant really tell you. on the box there was a dyno chart of a stock honda integra showing about 4whp bump with the condenser so there probably is a SMALL hp bump but that wasnt my main reason why i got it. plus its a cool JDM goodie and it glows blue 24/7

Looks great man, love the engine setup. Sorry to hear about wagon.

[cb7wagonPL]

thanx paq 16.

the engine feels great although ill be able to unluck few more ponies once i ditch the stock exhaust. ill be starting with header soon since i have a hole in the flexible part of downpipe and it makes this annoying sound at around 3k rpms.

the wagon is and will be missed. i especially realized that when i went tailgating with friends before the PSU game lol

You know I'm feeling the coupe...looking good man!!..I wanna see more engine bay shots I wanna invest in the buddyclub condenser how's that p39 ecu and where did you get yours?
JDM F22B CREW!!!

[cb7wagonPL]

thanx blackoutt
ill try to get some more engine bay shots. The P39 is working great. I got it from a guy on here. he wasn't sureif it was auto or manual. on accordinglydone there was a thread that explained it and i have an auto. My car is 5-spd and it runs and idles perfectly with the auto ecu so no problems there. once i get my exhaust done ill think about getting an a P06 and tunning.

i really want a wagon project

Nice car! Where did you get the battery tie down. I have the same battery and the stock tie down is a little small and digs into the battery a little.

the interior wide angle shot is fantastic.

[cb7wagonPL]

thanx j-speccb4, Clemson90Accord, accordtypeR, chessboxer

the wide angle is my new favorite lense.
as for the battery tie down i picked it up at my local autozone. its adjustable and does what it has to do
