haha! bargain of the century! i'll have alittle check and see if it will work.
EDIT: well the D and B engines have the same fuel pressure so i guess it should work just fine. i need the bracket with the 2 bolts that screw into the fuel rail aswell. drop me a PM with your paypal and i'll sort you out.
thanks mate

Rob, check but I have a feeling an A2 FPR will be no good. A1 might be fine though.
Addictive too right, I was like short burst in second then let off, nope you had to bang home into third and carry on.

been a while but the car is unreal! all tuned and setup on 5psi of boost to keep it safe but boy does she go! never felt power like it. any gear, foot down and its good bye.
i cant stop grinning. the feel and noise of it.
just some tiding up left to do and fit the bigger brakes and its finished. fingers crossed i'll have it done before xmas.
oh and with the rain and resent ice tractions become quite a problem

Sounds mad.
5 psi, how much power/torque is that?

i would guess at 180 bhp but the torque is what really makes this car fun. i would be keen to see what it puts out on a rolling road.
its such a shock as ive been driving a crx sir with teg cams and that feels quite quick but this civic feels loads faster.
