View Full Version : E Green SVT - Winter mods

Ok, so I'm starting to finish up the winter mods this year which basically consist of new wheels and tires (17x9 03 Cobra wheels with 275/40/17 Hoosiers) and a ported stock intake along with a ported throttle body. Possibly some beefier halfshafts later in the year as well.
Here are some pics:
We started off by taking off my intake to send it off for some porting.
Here is what we started with.

Then we started to take off the intake.

Ok, after we got the intake off, it was sent off to be ported.
Here is what it looks like after we got it back from porting.

And Damn did they do some NICE porting! :skid:

Put together an oil seperator for your PCV circuit and it will help with most of the oil.

A ton of parts.
1) all intercooler lines and elbows
2) intercooler fluid resevoir
3) heat exchanger and mounting brackets
4) intercooler
5) intercooler pump and mounting bracket
6) intercooler cap(mounts to front of lower intake and has 1 in and 1 out intercooler line)
7) intercooler pump wire pigtail
8) timing cover
9) every single pulley except AC and water pump
10) supercharger pulley bridge that a few idlers mount to
11) both belts
12) lower intake
13) IAC valve(that thing that sits on top of the plenum/elbow)
14) supercharger and plenum
15) alternator and both mounting brackets
16) alternator wire pigtail
17) throttle and cruise cables
18) throttle/cruise cable bracket that mounts on the blower
19) the whole vacuum assembly and the stuff it all plugs into on the driver side of the blower
20) main feed line comming out of PS resevoir(the bigger one going to the pump)
21) return PS line(the other smaller one out of the resevoir) as well as the sections that "T" to right next to the radiator and to the booster
22) pcv valve and hose
23) EGR valve
24) EGR tube
25) oil cooler
26) all of the soft radiator hoses:
a) upper hose going from the crossover tube to the radiator
b) the big long one going from the middle of the crossover directly down and goes into the thermostat
c) lower hose going from lower radiator to t-stat(about 10" long)
d) hose going from oil cooler to t-stat(about 10" long also)
e) smaller diameter hose going from bottom of coolant resevoir to t-stat
----> the last hose (e) may not be needed to swap, but i did anyway
27) coolant crossover tube(hard U-shaped tube going from head to head)
28) fuel rails(i'm not sure if the pressure sensor on the driver side rail is the same, but we swapped that too)
29) boost bypass valve
30) gaskets:
a) intercooler cap(mounts on front of lower intake)
b) plenum to blower(if you get a supercharger with the plenum on already, then you don't need this)
c) throttle body to plenum
d) IAC valve to plenum
e) EGR valve to back of blower
f) timing cover(3 parts to this gasket, and they are all sold separately)
g) supercharger to lower intake(this one can be reused if you can het the original from the guy with the 03)
h) you can also use your original lower intake to head gaskets. you just have to cut off two small tabs(one on each one). you'll see when you try to line them up with the 03/04 lower intake. no big deal at all, takes 3 seconds.

Haha, I would very much like to do Terminator bumpers/spoiler and mirrors and hood, but the money tree has lost most of its leaves for now, but who knows, maybe next year!

My stock intake was traded/sold when I got all the 03 parts, sorry.

Not civics Kurt, cavaliers. Actually I have most parts, but the thing with this swap is there is so much stuff to change and its not just as simple as things fitting into place and working. I have run into a lot of problems with parts not fitting and such and not having all of them. For instance right now I am waiting on a power steering pulley to get here. After that I should be able to bolt the rest of it up and crank it by the end of the week if I can get a few people to come over and help (drew and stew have already offered). So with any luck it may run by the end of this week or next.

Haha, 4.56's in there right now, gonna stay that way for a month or so, I wanna see what it's like at the track before i throw some 3.73's in.
Also, it should be fairly efficient I'm thinking. I have an LFP heat exchanger and also the blower is ported, and I'm only running 8 lbs, so the IAT2 temps shouldn't be very high at all, I've heard the port brings them down a bit also.

Alright, I have somewhat of an emergency. I am planning on getting the car tuned by Don LaSota and I need this car done ASAP because the only date in the next 2 weeks he can get me in is going to be this Saturday, so if anyone, anyone at all could come over and maybe lend me a hand with tying up this project or something I would greatly appreciate it and happily provide food/drinks and pay for gas money, let you go on a date with my sister etc WHATEVER. I want to do everything in my power to be able to get this thing done this week.
Just about every 03 Cobra part that needs installed is on, save for the blower pulley, I'd just like some help to make sure I dont f any of this up now. :werd:

My car has had the blower on it for 3 months now, and I haven't driven it but once and the distributor went out. Got the distributor fixed, and the car runs really rich and leaked oil like no other. Always something stupid. You have plenty of time, it'll get done and you'll enjoy it soon enough.

Well, ordered the fitting from Ford and it will be here Monday and also got those two bolts to bolt down the iat2 sensor. Also ordered the two belts from Autozone, one of them 1" bigger and the other 2" bigger, so hopefully one of those will fit, so by tuesday the car could be complete assuming those belts work...I think 2" should give me enough slack to get that on there though.

The car is almost scary to drive!! Thing freakin HAULS!! Especially with 4.56's!!!
As far as numbers, she put down 430 rwhp. :rock: Sure I could've made more putting in lower (numerically) gears like some 3.27's and packing the intercooler reservoir with ice and ran it on a dyno on a day that was about 60* outside instead of the 80's today and giving it a little more timing, but to me numbers dont mean anything, a dyno is merely a tuning tool. Cant wait to get this puppy on the track!
I figured the car would be too much to handle with 4.56's...but wow...throw it into second gear and the thing feels like a damn rocket!
