he's an instructor and really good driver. the s2k doesn't have much done to the engine, just intake and single exhaust. it does have a lot of weight reduction, pretty much everything inside is removed. some basic suspension upgrades, sway bar. accord front brake calipers. APR GT200 rear wing. R888 tires.

i was running low boost and street tires, and wasn't trying to pull away so i can get him on video. although his car his much faster then mine in corners and braking. s2k is a better handling car in tight corners. i used to race my s2k with him and sold some parts to him when i sold the s2k.

this is him driving on the same track

What kind of catch cans are those? Is there a PCV type of valve in them internally? I noticed the driver side one was running into your UICP.

yeah, it just look like that in the picture. it actually loop around and go under the intake pipe.

the second one just goes between the PCV on the valve cover and the intake mani. usually the front one gets more oil, but the oil looks very runny, like its been diluted. i don't notice the oil as much during the hot summer months.

Great build! Basically everything I've always wanted to do, but have been too poor and lazy to actually do.

it's always a pain to connect the brake duct hose when removing and installing the front bumper. so i got my friend to machine me a quick connect for the brake duct. also, serve as a reducer since the naca duct has 2.5" out let and the hose is only 2".
