He was naive to assume you were stock. I used to run a 2010 Mustang GT sleeper with a Saleen twin screw blower. Turbo'd JDMs used to gravitate toward me because they assumed I was the one who was bone stock. It was priceless when they were the ones who got fooled. It's too bad we never ran into each other, but that would have been fun.
I gotta build a car for rolls. I've only owned motorcycles and there is no point in even racing half the stuff u see, unless we get in to some corners. I prefer track cars so I'd wanna build an MR2 or something and not worry about power as much, but out here in Houston with these 6 lane freeways it makes sense to do something just for the rolls even if they get boring pretty fast. It's less about the driving and more about the building, and then putting your pride and joy up against other cars, and putting grease all on the steering wheel haha
That si is sick. I like you're train of thought on getting a car that's relatable and obtainable. There lots of people out here flexing their Z06 ZL1's, 1100 HP R34 GT-R, and widebody Hellcats; it's nice to see a humble car.
I got one and plan on keeping it even tho this Gas situation is killer! Mine has some body damage from the previous owners but the transmission and engine still purrs like a kitten :)
Man this guy is an inspiration, this is what I have always wanted to do my whole life, getting a JDM car, with little to none cosmetic upgrades, and spending money on just the engine and focus on the performance of the car. Anybody out there will think you are running on stock but they don't even know what you are packing under the hood, it's just satisfying when someone is fooled by the stock facade of the car and getting gapped so hard.
and I'm just saying that I'm inspired by him to have a sleeper car. What is so mature and cool dream then? To have a family car and start a family and all that boring adult stuffs? Yeah sure I'll eventually get to that point, we all will. But I'll enjoy my youth building a sleeper car. You better watch your mouth sir. You are being a little condescending. You are just the type who thinks they are "old" and "mature" and that they are filled with more "wisdom". GTFO with that puny brain of yours.
There's is a crew in Germany that does this with the VW Golf MK2. I think they're called Glocker maybe with the umlaut. Anyway I saw a couple of videos from them ditching Porsches and Ferraris that were totally fun to watch. They made minor cosmetic changes though.
You could just buy a Lexus ISF and have 420hp stock and everyone assumes it's a normal IS. Literally no one I've ever met knows that they exist. Especially in Europe.

@@NotxOmnis I got lucky bought mine from a guy who just had another kid. Listed it at 10k no one wanted it, relisted it for 8k no one would bite on it for what he wanted then I hit him with 5700$ and he took it. 140k miles, 3 years later and we’re still going hard, just hit 160k

One item that helps cool the intake air further in a turbo vehicle is a high temperature silicone intake header gasket. It helps to prevent heat transfer from the block to the intake manifold allowing the air getting to the cylinders to be up to 20 to 40° cooler increasing the performance.
Bro I’m from the bay and love your content, my family grew up with Hondas frm the crx, DAs, civics, del sol. I got a 01 Honda Accord V6, this motor is so slept on can’t wait to put some heat in it. Love the content keep it up and ride safe
Totally looked into swapping it out for the Acura TL manual, this shop said they could do it for 7k, I use to drive stick. My crx was stick and had no power steering, felt like a baby go kart with my momo steering wheel.
What i learned during my life with cars is that if you have expensive and powerful car people will not even try to race you or have fun. You expect to have a lot of fun after buying a car like that but no not really. What is fun is Civic like this or any other older car which doesn't look fast.

If ur getting locked out or grinding into 2nd and 3rd I would try the hybrid racing cmc and slave they have a kit for $275. Supposedly it helps alot of ppl with that problem
Do NOT buy the em1 cmc. It’s a waste of money and will do more harm than anything. It’s not made for our cars and it’s only a coincidence that it works for ours Continue using your oem cmc or replace it with a new oem one, then ADJUST it properly so it engages each gear smoothly. Also take the delay valve out of the slave cylinder or have a mechanic do it, that’s what’s causing grinding when shifting into second gear too quickly. It limits the fluid so it “slips” the clutch so you don’t cause too much damage from dumping it
I love Hondas and Fords I have a 07Honda Element and a 07 Mustang GT premier 2 convertible . The Element is surprisingly quick and extremely reliable! The Mustang is a lot of fun! Your car is probably pretty lite to in weight comparison as well, still great video!
I had that issue with the 2 gear, you should replace the cmc, I’m using the k-tuned one and now is like butter and also check the clutch pedal bracket, they tend to broke very easily so it don’t let the clutch to engage completely
@@ethanmoore4314 gears grinding and very stiff, all because the clutch is not engaging, check the 3 bolts of the clutch pedal bracket if are broken, you can tell if when you push the clutch feels like a click, You can just weld it, it’s the best option instead of buying a new one because if you get a new one or used one it will break in the future
You’re a real one fa sho. From what I see you make relatable videos and it’s fun to watch. You’re a model Honda guy. Best part is your car actually moves pretty good 😂
Agree I told my dealer I wanted a blue sedan stock 09/11 with low miles it took him 4 months to find me one but he did and it wasn’t exactly low Miles it had 142k miles but 9 months later it still runs great no issues at all
Not an import lover by any stretch, but I'm fair and can respect a build no matter what it is. Plus, your Honda sounds really good and you're not a jackass about it. Good stuff my guy.
I can appreciate any car built by the driver's own two hands. It only makes sense for roll races, drag races etc. Cause it ain't the driving that makes it what it is, it's about the car so to me that is more for the builder rather than the driver. Be both I say. Working on a vehicle is fun, frustrating too but also therapeutic. But man once you get some grease under your nails, you'll be listening for every little sound always worrying when you redline her out. Mechanical sympathy and paranoia
Look at the market my boi they selling new SI’s for way over sticker. Inna couple years when everything starts to even out then civics will be like 5k-7,5k with the same miles
I always thought those Hondas we're slow even boosted. I have a 11 mustang 5.0 full bolt on and it's very fast for a N/A but I recently raced a crx turbo that wasn't even running good it was smoking but when we raced them he was pulling train lengths on my ass that's when I learned that boosted Hondas are NO JOKE he smoked me sooo bad that I couldn't tell what type of car it was he was pulling hard on me
@@UnderworldRacing even if he boost his mustang, there's civics and integras out there that will still give him a hard time. I know this, because my 5.0 is boosted and a 90's civic hatch walked me like I was standing still smh.
Reminds me of myself, I had a ‘70 El Camino with a built 350. I got smoked by Civic too. It’s all good though, performance cars are where it’s at!! Nice Honda
😆 great job roasting the mustang! I have an an 03 IS300 and I love it! Just got my hands on a Honda Fit! Too! Imma tune both of my babies! My IS300 is lightly modified!
Hey bro, I also have a civic which I could relate to, and once I saw that you live near the bay area where I live, I subbed immediately. Dope content keep it up.
2nd gear is such a PITA on these transmissions. From what I have read it seems to be correlated to the clutch dampener but removing that really messes with clutch pedal engagement (not in a good way). You either have to baby the 1-2 or just do 2nd+ hear pulls. My 2017 accord has the exact same problems.
@@icelover3 It's definitely a transmission issue. If you've ever rebuilt a K series transmission you would know. The synchro cones on the gears wear out and the synchro can't drop down. Like the gears in a K series transmission will literally wear out faster than the synchros. Which is why you get that brick wall feeling when trying to shift under load.
@@koopatroopa187 I have an FA5 with 250k km's (155k miles), and it has only had the brick wall feeling when it had the stock CMC/slave. I'm not saying you're wrong, but I think the main issue is the stock CMC.
@@icelover3 I will look into that. I have the same issue with my bone stock 2009 FA5. If it bandaids the issue well enough to save me from having to rebuild a transmission, then that's great.
Hector is going to be running 3 Honda Civics with spoon engines. And on top of that he just came into Harry's and he ordered 3 T66 turbos, with NOS, and a Motec system exhaust.

I have a 11 mustang 5.0 full bolt on and it's very fast for a N/A but I recently raced a crx turbo that wasn't even running good it was smoking but when we raced them he was pulling train lengths on my ass that's when I learned that boosted Hondas are NO JOKE he smoked me sooo bad that I couldn't tell what type of car it was he was pulling hard on me
boost your mustang and see what happens...
@@UnderworldRacing even if he boost his mustang, there's civics and integras out there that will still give him a hard time. I know this, because my 5.0 is boosted and a 90's civic hatch walked me like I was standing still smh.
All I heard was the relatable section of the video and got my sub instantly
I’ve been following the build for a while but that’s a V6 mustang lol I would hope you’d win
That was a v6 and he only beat him by like 5 cars it seems lol
I knew that High School you drove by seemed familiar. Crazy how your video was just randomly recommended to me. I miss home now😅🤣
I started messing with my daily and got a turbo kit for it lol
Its a R18 tho but still fun
how much did you spend on it?
@@rinyi-y4r around 660
@@Prodigy70 where did you buy the kit from?
@@Jojo-ot7cu ebay, EMUSA, arrived pretty quick and had everything I needed
I just had to work with the oil pan and other things myself
@@Prodigy70 how much power do you think you’ll push?
Bro that car running smooth!
I’ve been told that the 1st to 2nd issue is because of the crappy stock CMC. Supposedly, the fix is to put in the EM1 CMC.
Reminds me of myself, I had a ‘70 El Camino with a built 350. I got smoked by Civic too. It’s all good though, performance cars are where it’s at!! Nice Honda
Ever thought about getting a S2k broski
S2000 on the channel would be cool
@@Jojo-ot7cu shiii, mines in the shop getting boosted rn. Gonna have plenty of videos sending v8s to gap city
😆 great job roasting the mustang!
I have an an 03 IS300 and I love it! Just got my hands on a Honda Fit! Too! Imma tune both of my babies! My IS300 is lightly modified!
Should’ve ran it with the TL 😅😅
Hey bro, I also have a civic which I could relate to, and once I saw that you live near the bay area where I live, I subbed immediately. Dope content keep it up.
2nd gear is such a PITA on these transmissions. From what I have read it seems to be correlated to the clutch dampener but removing that really messes with clutch pedal engagement (not in a good way). You either have to baby the 1-2 or just do 2nd+ hear pulls. My 2017 accord has the exact same problems.
It’s not a transmission issue, it’s a clutch master cylinder issue. No issues with clutch pedal engagement as long as you install it properly
@@icelover3 It's definitely a transmission issue. If you've ever rebuilt a K series transmission you would know. The synchro cones on the gears wear out and the synchro can't drop down. Like the gears in a K series transmission will literally wear out faster than the synchros. Which is why you get that brick wall feeling when trying to shift under load.
@@koopatroopa187 I have an FA5 with 250k km's (155k miles), and it has only had the brick wall feeling when it had the stock CMC/slave. I'm not saying you're wrong, but I think the main issue is the stock CMC.
@@icelover3 I will look into that. I have the same issue with my bone stock 2009 FA5. If it bandaids the issue well enough to save me from having to rebuild a transmission, then that's great.
Hector is going to be running 3 Honda Civics with spoon engines. And on top of that he just came into Harry's and he ordered 3 T66 turbos, with NOS, and a Motec system exhaust.
