That's cool man I hear ya. Sometimes I watch these videos and people blow the block and have a forged one ready to go like wtf? I plan on a on3 turbo kit for my gt. need to upgrade the rest of the car first tho. Check out some of my videos.
And your civic is still worth $1000. Nice car man. Most people boost the six to around 10(stock block). And anything past 350rwhp is going to need a tranny and a rear end. But keep up the good work bro.
@Turbo05gt i know people usually push them further but this is my only car and don't have time/money for an engineswap. I try not to beat on it anyways, this was more of a project to just get familiar with working on an engine. on my next one i plan to build a full motor and then slap on a turbo to make some real power
@jakefmxrider i'm not going to dig into this motor. I'm probably leaving this as is for now and will be highly modding another sixxer that's not my dd on the side
I think you can purchase the kits directly from Vortech or other Mustang parts sites. Check on 3.8mustang . com, theres some used kits that come up from time to time. With just the Vortech, non intercooled kit you should see around 275rwhp
I tried to keep it smog legal and keep the EGR, however I think that's where I'm leaking some boost because I have a custom EGR tube I kinda fabbed up. I will be removing that in the spring and upping the boost to around 10-11pounds. I'm shooting for around 300rwhp

I think 230 at the rear on a v6 is good, that's more then a stock GT

Thanks, I'm going to get it re-tuned next spring, I just have no time or money right now lol.

could alway be a low reading dyno. sometimes they are up to 60rwhp off... so instead of it being 230hp it might be something closer to 290

It was on a Mustang dyno which can read 10% less than a dynojet sometimes
