If this turns out anything like your other car the PO no doubt made a wise choice giving it to you. Can't wait to see what you do with it. |

Looks good man. What are the dimensions of that radiator? Trying to decide on one for my car. |

It's just a civic radiator 92-99 or something like that. Just make sure to get the 3 row. |

So rad! Can I get a ride sometime? I could always use motivation to get mine running. |

After getting everything back together and ready for a drive I decided to check the timing, the exhaust cam was off one tooth! Ended up carefully removing the cam gear while rotating to it's needed position, this took 4 hands but the car runs very smooth now and actually has some power. It's currently on spring pressure at about 8 psi. no issues to report and the Spal fan kit works amazing. Going to put the same kit on the Mirage if I can make a little more room. Once the old gas runs out we will turn the boost up a few lbs. and go from there. The new mustache bar is now paint matched along with the Grill. Bumper and hood work next. |

That was the old trick for getting more power up top with the 4g61t. Retarding the exhaust cam 1 tooth with stock cams, IIRC. |

I'm not sure which way is considered retard but the cam was rotated CCW, it definitely lacked power and rev speed at that time. |
