Here is my issue... My car (06 Civic ex) is getting a little boost action in the next month or so, I have the turbo kit on order (TSI turbo kit) and a WR intake manifold (the stock is plastic thus easy to blow with the turbo (from what im told)), I currently have pulleys and will be getting a 70mm exhaust...
I want to bring this engine to its fullest potential, since nobody has had the r18 over 280whp yet I am going to try to do it...
My question is, what shop is recommended for AEM FIC tuning, what shop is recommended for installation, and where can I get custom forged parts and what would cost for something like that be. This is my first turbo'd car and I am expecting a hefty invoice... I have no idea how to go about this...
Would anyone suggest doing a sponsorship with a shop, I goto car meets alot and would love to enter my car in shows, I have a decent list of external mods as well... or is it better to do it by myself?
I am ok with loosing the car for a month when it gets a bit warmer out because I have a motorcycle and a second form of transportation... any help would be appreciated from the wonderful members on the boards...
