1.6 > 1.8

/thread

Lower cost of admission, and that's about it. We be poor :giggle:

Huge thread drift I know, but the reason is it's MUCH cheaper to keep the 1.6.

I know NA 1.8s are cheap, about $300 from a junk yard? But then everyone says junk the head for a '99+. That's another $350-$450 for a CORE, then there's at least $200 in machine work to clean, R&R valves, and surface. Plus the time and/or labor costs to pull the 1.6 and put in the 1.8 you've just spent time and/or labor cost to build.

Or just suffer the 40ft/lb loss and keep the 1.6.

I hate you all. The tacotaco cast is out of stock on ebay. So I will need to find a used one for cheap.

Only m.net idiots buy a 99 head. Mt.net would suggest vvt like a man.

Fixed just for you:dealwithit:

ftfy

At this time I have 3 people signed up. Only 2 more people to go to get an AMAZING deal on a setup.

Do it people. Save me $100!

Neat kit! I like the simplicity.

Can you do it with a T2 flange, EFR and make it 1.6? No extra cost, please. I'm on a budget.

Will this fit my civic? It's a 1.8.

so I'll be a beta tester. Need to list my stuff for sale tomorrow for funds though. Gonna sell my fm log, 2560, downpipe and enthuza xr. Maybe hopefully get 1500 :/

Count me in for a NA kit. I sent you an email last night from my @Jeepthing.net email address.

so is it 5 ppl min or what? like if 6 sign up its still $1000? or can only 5 get in on it?

Truthfully it is as many people who want to sign up until Dec 14th. Once we hit 5 people the price stays at $1000, and shipment times will go up a bit for the people lower down on the list.

Intro and install video has now been added to the first post.

You have PM

Jesus christ that was the most raw, honest install I have ever seen.

Lars, you should have at least let me edit the video. That shit looked like it was edited on a flip phone.

Where is my 1.6, EFR kit?

You had me expecting so much worse before I watched it. lol

The video was shot on a friend cell phone over the course of about 45 minutes. Then thrown together on a Mac. I had no script, or formal plan for the video, or any idea of how to properly make a video. I knew I just wanted to show off how easy it was to install the setup, which I think the video does. For my next video I will get JoeP to come down with all his fancy hi end Tv Studio equipment and union guys and have the video rival the quality of House of Cards.

Email abe@artech.com and you will get the hookup. In all honesty I will never do an EFR setup. That turbo alone costs more then my whole setup and kills the whole budget idea. Go with Artech or TSE if you want to run an EFR turbo.
