Talking My RL against a turbo, THATS RIGHT, TURBO RSX type-S
While out Rice Hunting last night... we heard the indistinguishable sound of a BOV which to our surprise Came from a 2006 RSX, we gave him a thumbs down and he got mad and agreed to race. we went to the interstate and went from 40. i had him on take off but he caught up... he never passed me until the end when i let off cause of traffic. Here's the link for the video http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=O38WW3WLj24 and here are some pics for those that doubt it was turbo...

Noice. Did you go from a 2.8 to a 2.7 by any chance? If so, did you notice a difference?

well, the engine coolant won't over heat......but I'm sure you have some crazy IAT2 temps going on......which isn't good

well, first off if you're running a 2.7" pulley on a GM stage 2 tune I would up the pulley size, or get 60 lb. injectors and a tune. And yes an additional heat exchanger or dual pass or both would help a lot.

meth injection is spraying a mixture of methinol and water into your motor.....Ups the octaine rating and cools down the air charge.
