Check it out at Wagner Motorsports Andrew has done wonders for my 1.6L we are currently running around 200 hp at the wheels with all the emission and MAP sensors removed running a FMU and AFC.
 
Yeah, I've met the guy...seems like a good guy, and he does nice work.
 
He also has a NA downpipe that uses a hig flow cat. I went up there for a few hours last week and talked with him. Real nice work, i might head up there again b4 sat. to take a ride in JAJE turbo p5.

i can't freakin wait....been tooling around in the wife's 2k1 civic (which has a stronger engine than the pr5)...forgot what it is like for an engine to strongly pull to redline instead of give up 1000rpm before it comes around

Unless your wife has an SI then it should only feel more powerful. If I remember right the EX model only had 127 HP and we have 130. I could be wrong about the power, but I like the way our engine feels and sounds compared to the civic. (plus we handle better). I hope that you don't feel I am out of line but I just love my car and I will split hairs to show my pride.
 
no s***, a local place - I might have to check that out in about a year when I pass my 50,000 miles and the warranty is gone. Until then - I'm not doing anything that I can't change back fairly easy.

Any members here have turbo on an auto?

the stock 2.0 makes 130 hp low and it is all before 5000 rpm where you might as well shift...off the line the pr5 has an advantage but once it runs out of breath the civic catches it and we shift and it pulls away slowly but surely...you also have to keep in mind that the ex sedan is 2600lbs where the pr5 is 2800lbs and a stock ex sedan runs mid 16 1/4 miles (not the coupe which is faster) and the stock pr5 runs high 16s low 17s

handling stock the pr5 wins easily...though once i got off the 15" econo michelins for some sp5000 dunlops on 15" rotas they drastically helped the handling of the civic....though i still feel more confident in the pr5...i understand where you are coming from so we both in essence agree...anyway my car is now BOOOOOOOSTED just running 2psi for a period of break in

See, I would go take a look - but it's gonna be a year before I go turbo - no sense getting teased. I have enough of that just reading the posts on here.
