Hamby's Turbo D15Z1

Ok, so i posted a thread ( https://hondaswap.com/civic-del-sol-eg-ek/out-b-back-goes-d-129746/ ) about my swapping back from the B18B1 to my D15Z1. Now for those who are thinking the same thing I would be if I just read this, why the hell would he do that, well if you read my other thread you will know why. Anyway, the motor is back in, the turbo is done, and it's boosted. Now I am only running 5 to 6 PSI for now but eventually I am going to build a D16Z6 and will be able to run a lot more boost. It now has a T3/T4 turbo, 2.5 " downpipe, knock-off BLOV, adjustable fuel pressure regulator, and a front mount. Here are a few pics of my ride. Feel free to leave comments and suggestions.

So what are you using for tuning? Oh, right...never mind...it's not necessary, right?
 
is it just me or is the waste gate dumping on to the air filter ? oh and i agree with efhondakid get rid of the Altezzas, also what bumper will you run ?
 
For your info brutal, I did have it tuned, and I never said that you don't need to have it tuned because that would be false. All I said previously is that engine management is not necessary.

No dyno yet, I won't be able to get it on a dyno till I go back this semester.

The wastegate is not dumping into the filter, it dumps right next to the filter but it will have a dump tube soon. have to get a flange and I am going to be running stock bumpers( yes the ic piping will have to be changed slightly).

Are you talking about tuning with an FMU then?
 
basically. you can fool you stock ecu by using a "missing link", retarding the timing, and turning up you fuel pressure by either using an AFPR or using an FMU. By doing this, you can safely run 5 to 6 psi.
 
hi my english too bad. i have d15z1 turbo .use ecu p1j chipped converted to vtec evreting is good.
i need bin setup ?and fuel compesation timming ign
 
dont need to read y u did it i know d > b. and as for "safely" running a fmu i dunno bout that. it will work but u cant romp on it u cant dyno it safely to many uncertainties. but looks good n good luck. keep the ricer lights its that "sleeper" look
