Its pretty quick man. Lots of torque. I have Injen Intercooler/ CAI, CNT Charge pipes, aFe frontpipe, aFe Takeda Exhaust, Maperformance Catless downpipe, prl flexfuel kit, FX300 and aluminum flywheel.

I could have made a lot more power but he kept this tune for reliability.

Damn, need to break that 300whp barrier!

But good numbers regardless, I understand that you want to keep it conservative and reliable. I want to do the same.

Im going to slowly start buying forged internals along with the PRL big turbo kit. Yeah the tuner recommended we keep the tune conservative for reliability purposes.

Not bad, I’m hoping then to be over 300 with the 27won turbo then.

Man, awesome numbers without a turbo upgrade!

Anyone know what the ballpark is for a proper install of upgraded rods/pistons? I know tsp and prl both sell upgraded rods from Brian Crower for around $500 but haven't seen anyone on here pull the trigger yet. Would love to get a sense how much that'll cost if people start needing them with the bigger turbo kits.

my boys at Juju Built said 1,800 to do the work. But i get 30-40% off there so itll be around 1,350.

it was exactly what i was hoping for. I didnt wanna push it to 300 and neither did he. The rods are too weak in our cars.
Oh for sure. I know with the 27won turbo it seems more safe to hit the 300 range since you're making more power up top than down low and I think Derek said that's what kills the rods is all the power down low, which makes sense. I ran 10 psi on my old D series with a t3/t4 turbo and was pushing the 300 range on a stock block before eventually the rods gave out, and they took a good year of beating before that happened. Eventually I built the motor and went with 16 psi and some head work and managed 350whp.

These little Honda motors can take a beating. But, it's so scary to think about blowing a motor on such a new of a car :doh:

Great, good to know what you're in for if you decide to go that route haha. Sounds like you've got a good in, good luck with the build!
