Re: Dynoed my Honduh Accord yesterday....
Randy, piss on the haters, some of us realize the time, energy, and $$$$ it takes to build a setup that puts out that level of power. I'm very impressed on what you were able to do with stock upper end and intake. Shane, John and Cher let me know how much it took to get your car from not running to 600WHP when I was there earlier today. John did a great job on the cage, buildup and install. Elite again has shown their know-how when it comes to tuning turbo vehicles.
I have to say I wasn't a big fan of Randy's car when I first saw it, I have a whole different opinion on his rice ride now.
As someone pointed out to me earlier today, "it's interesting at how a dsmer goes about building and tuning a honduh."
Good job!
Jim

Re: Dynoed my Honduh Accord yesterday....
Thanks for the nice comments guys. The car was worked on by both me and john. If he was working on it, I was working on it. I did all the turbo stuff and re-wiring of the car, John assembled the motor and did the cage. We worked on the car together for probably 150+ hours since January. The car went from complete rice and a complete mess to basically starting over from scratch. I'm pretty happy with the numbers and how the car turned out. I just can't wait to get it to the track. Here's a pic of the car as of yesterday.

Re: Dynoed my Honduh Accord yesterday....
Congrats on the Numbers I still wish you'd kept the body kit, and started proving that just because you have show doesn't mean you can't do the whole GO thing either.
Anyrated love the numbers Total Sleeper, Can't wait to get some 1/4mile numbers/video's.

Re: Dynoed my Honduh Accord yesterday....
Wow, it looks like an old grandmas car except it looks like she went to pepboys and they sold her the wrong size tires and put them on anyway because she lost the receipt. Nice sleeper and very nice numbers, no one can frown upon 600 hp. Man what happened to 600 being some big ass power. Now it seems like everyone and their mother is 600+ hp. Since ive been on this site (like 2 years ago) ive seen the bar being raised almost daily, back when people like nash and jet were hitting 450-500, now the bar has been raised from the 450 mark being really high hp, to 600 being the minimum to getting props. Granted i know this topic isnt about a dsm, but 600 is definatly some nice numbers and we should give credit where credit is due. even if if is a honduh gramma car. lol Congrats on the numbers.
Tom

Gramma car? Hey, you're the one with an automatic.  Is your damn car ever going to make more power than it did when it left the factory?

It runs...
Get your car up and running! I've been waiting for that thing to run since 2001. Swanny kept telling me how it would have this and that...T67 and low comp pistons at one point...

I know... I've been waiting since the spring of 2003.  I'm beginning to think that the GT3561 isn't big enough.

Re: Dynoed my Honduh Accord yesterday....
Damn, a 600 horse early 90's Accord 4-door, who'd a thunk it? That's the sleeper of the century with stock wheels all around and something over the IC. Nice work.

Re: Dynoed my Honduh Accord yesterday....
It's funny to think back to when Randy first came into the group. I think it's been less then a year? to how far he's come....
I'm very impressed especially since I know how much he had to do to get his car from what it was to what it is now.
