I’ve never posted pics (that I can remember) on the net, of my turbo DA. The reason, of course, because of security concerns. Anyway, I sold her not too long ago so here are some pics. I think she’s unique and will forever be cherished [[sniff, sniff]].

The tune was very conservative. If I remember correctly, the a/f was about 11.6:1 and the timing was no more than 18 degrees. Although the exhaust/manifold/dp combo was very restrictive, the car was very quiet and I wouldn’t trade that for anything. F*** that fart can crap!
I’m planning on changing camps for a while. I would love to build another integra, but I’m just not feelin’ hondas right now. My town is infested with nothing but riced-out civics, integras, and accords. All you hear is the droning of the fart cans and the thumping (more like rattling) stereos blasting 50-cent.
When I would drive around, jaws would drop and I would get lots of compliments, but the theft rate of hondas in my town is just too much. I couldn’t sleep at night with my alarm going off. The teg was broken into and almost stolen twice.
Anyway, I’m thinking of building a mustang with a 6psi kenne bell supercharger to keep me happy for a while and maybe get a bike as well. It would be cool to build another teg, just not right now.
beautiful teg, not really feelin’ those rims, but i love that car. Sad to see her go, but we all gotta move on some time. Don’t go dumb-estic! Don’t do it!
rah rah, i know what you mean about stolen cars in jersey, i had a turbo civic stolen at etown last year. nice setup you had there, but im sure you will do something else up just as nice.
Yes, it’s horizon grey metallic. I loved the car because of the color–not too many out there and not too many are in good shape.
As far as the domestic thing, most guys that are die-hard brand loyalists will always frown upon “crossing over.” But I don’t give a crap. When I rode in my friends 600 rwhp, 600 rwtq :manual: mustang, I thought to myself, “How could anyone NOT like this.” This thing was an absolute missle.
