get rid of the red intake manifold, timing cover, and spark plug cover. Your turbo, o2 housing, and intercooler pipes all look like ebay crap. Im not too into the car myself.

That ^ was not a rude response. It was his opinion and he stated it because you asked for it.

You have enough intercooler piping there to form TWO short route kits, the result of which is very inefficient. I personally don't like the red theme you've got going there but whatever. I fail to see how this is a 'build' thread. What are the specs? What have you built?
 
That's probably the worse turbo pipe routing I have ever seen. I am trying to figure out why you did it this way? I'm sure you have seen many DSMs with their intercooler setups, so why would one attempt something of this proportion. Intercooler piping is like electricity wire/cable, less is more.

The red accents aren't too bad. Everyone needs to be bale to make something their own with their own flair to it, but you can trust and believe you are having some serious performance losses with how your car sits now. Keep at it bro, you get up there in no time.
 
It's ok. Soon I'll have a canary yellow talon with black top and high rise spoiler. It's def going. Be one of a kind.
 
There is already a Canary yellow DSM with a black op and high rise spoiler and it runs 10s/9s
 
I paid for all my shit myself also and if I couldnt afford the good stuff I didnt buy the part at all until I could afford it. Thats the problem with these cars. 90% of the people who own them cant afford to build it like they think they can, so you end up with hacked up ebay powered piles of shit. Just my .02 cents.

Couldn't have said it any better...
 
this thread = face palm.

Dude is trying to do his thing. let him be.

constructive criticism is one thing. but I can see noone on this board knows what that little saying means. its IC piping and all you had to say was you might think about changing it , instead everyone goes to flaming this guy. OP good job setting it up yourself , its good that even though you didn't have cash to buy top of the line parts , you are learning . I lost 450$ on my first crx , but I learned SO much from it , sometimes these "investments" are just lessons. you live and learn. and then you get luvs.

Out
 
Let's all be civil.

OP, do NOT ask for feedback if you're only looking to have your ego stroked. It never ends well.
