K here are some pics. I bought the car a couple weeks ago,


as you can see the turbo is set up kinda messy but the pipes are dependable (although the rusted welds don't look too attractive)






Exterior is stock pretty much a sleeper. As for mods it has the turbonetics turbo, greddy bov, intercooler and a walbro high pressure fuel pump. she hasn't been tuned yet since the turbo set up so i'm takin it real easy at the moment cause I can't afford the tune until after christmas.

Is the piping all welded pie cuts?

PS....Put an air filter on please lol. That isn't good for a street car

I've heard that you can't get obdII tuned and that i'll have to convert to obdI. is this true? i've already looked up prices and i'm ready to buy the harness and computer but i wanted to get this confirmed first. any help is appreciated.

If I was you I would convert to OBD1 and get Hondata.

People weld pie cut pieces to make smooth bends instead of mandrel bent piping put together with silicone couplers. If you can weld good it is the better solution IMO. Never have to worry about blowing a I/C pipe under high boost. Blowing couplers should never be a problem under street conditions though with silicon couplers and tbolt clamps

Yes. I just prefer Hondata because it is more precise than most. You can also get Hondata with a boost control and datalogging function which is really helpful in tuning and diagnosis
