Rio's back on the road
So the CRX is back!! I just finshed putting the engine back in and she's being tuned on Monday. I drove it around about 20 miles with a base map and it feel real good. This time around I have a full array of gauges that way I don't run lean and have a meltdown incident again.
Pictures and tune results to be posted soon.

So just got back from Evans. The car is running great! It's been about 2.5 years since the last mishap and it's nice to have it back.
Latest numbers at 290whp and 215ft/lbs. Boost is between 8-8.5psi. Torque curve is real flat and she's putting down 200ft/lbs at 3200rpm!! Second gear has now become as useless as first. IATs even after 3 hard pulls never got above 125 degrees.
Can't wait to pick up some drag radials and get to Englishtown.

I love the Accord. It's amazing that Honda put such a high level of refiniment in a non-Acura model. The car is real smooth, great torque and is perfect for "touring". My only complaint is she's a little floaty when you first turn in, but once the car settles out she holds real well. Lastly, the brakes are too small for the car. I'm hoping the new TL brakes are a direct fit since the chassis are the same.
As for the CRX I don't have any video yet, but once I go to Englishtown or Island I will have some 1/4 mile footage. Here's the graph from my last tuning session with Jeff.

Holy christ man, that's a better power curve than my turbo 2.8l inline 6! I definitely want to see (hear) this beast in action. |

Yeah, I'm gonna be down soon and I'll defintiely hit you up. Actually...since I have your attention  do you have any slicks that would fit my car that I could possible borrow for a run or two? I'm thinking about buying some 23s but I haven't pulled the trigger yet. My bigest issue is I need a set on 15inch wheels (have to clear the big ass brakes).

Yes, I still have a unported M62 blower. I really want a TVS but there's no CCW rotation. If I had a TVS I would easily be around 320whp. This setup is good though. The car feels stronger than ever and now i can't use second gear either. Before just first had no traction, now it's first and second. FWD FTL |
