wOOt, brown santa came today :)
the wonderful brown man (and i don't mean smartass :gayhi5: ) dropped off some new parts today. i'm actually going to start to take apart the car friday night after work because my current motor is taking a dump. who wants to help lift the motor outta the basement? jaybro? wayne? jeffos? glenn? smoothie? hahaha jk
a wha dis?
my XTD 6 puck clutch came in:
also my RC eng. 750cc injectors too
if you look closely, there's 3 ports for fuel to come out of instead of one on the stock injector; pretty cool:
and after some hardcore swearing, i finally coaxed the O rings into place on the manifold :*****:

let us know how you like that XTD clutch. i hear some good things about them for the price you pay. but it's always good to hear from people with real world expeince with them not just what other people have "heard"
more importantly let me know how the 6 puck ceramic disc is for daily driving.......
looking good so far!
750cc's......mmmmmm.....good for 475-500whp.......crank it fuzz!!

You may have installed the injector O rings incorrectly...
Step 1: The rings that come with the injectors get inserted into the intake manifold (no force required)
Step 2: The fuel rail is placed between the injectors and the manifold (no force required)
Step 3: Screw down the fuel rail and seal up the O rings.
You do not use the old factory O rings. The RC O rings do not fit over the injector the way the OE rings do. They seal at the base of the injector. This is how RC recommends installing them. From the picture it looks like you have the OE rings still installed… that is what lead me write this.
Nice clutch!

edit: your right, i diden't get any instructions with it but i figured it out, they weren't in the fuel rail right. good thing i diden't dremel them too much. i gotta stop working on the motor when i'm tired :P
fixed:
thanks doug, my mind has been going a mile a minute lately :confusedo
oh and wayne, the rice fuel rail is on it's way :finger: ...i hate waiting on shipping
i also thought i'd buy the rest of the OEM parts, so i went buck again at acura. picked up:
-OEM timing belt,
-oil pan drain bolt
-all new oil pan bolts
-all new bolts for the oil pump
-new OEM fuel filter
-new OEM ignition rotor
-new OEM distributer cap
-new intake manifold bolts (all)
-new exhaust manifold bolts (all)
i just realized.......that i replaced every single nut/bolt on this motor :wtf:

Im running the stage 1 xtd clutch. Feels like the oem clutch, and hasn't changed one bit since i first installed it. For the price i think it's really good.
nice stuff fuzz

diden't get a chance to drop the motor because of a last min. family thing. but i did start to pull out all the unnessary crap like AC, cruise controll. i'm still waiting on my fuel rail, 3 inch catback w/high flow cat and a prop valve and i'll be good to go. :*****:

If you're doing boost, you're really likely to run a high duty cycle with 310's. depends on your setup and how many psi you're running. if you're doing all motor you should be good to 200+
