Huh? A Single turbo FD...with dual air intakes?
I was just reading the January Import Tuner mag and noticed the article about the Carbon Creations car?
http://www.importtuner.com/features/...car/index.html
What is the deal with a single turbo upgrade with dual air intakes Is this possible and how much more air could you possibly get from have 2 intakes on a single turbo?

I love the 9.5" FRONT wheels, and 8.5" BACK wheels. I'm sure it's a typo, but probably an easy mistake from a writer who probably writes about drag civics all the time.
That looks like one of those "Grant" steering wheels they sell at auto zone.

I recall reading about that car about 1 1/2 yrs ago. The article said he 'estimates' ~ 370-380 whp on 18psi with his stock twins (i think it included the intercooler fogger).
At least he's not on here talking about what an authority figure he is....

Wishin I Still Had The FD
I've had them for a while now too. Only problem I've had was when I installed my large SMIC, the wide Airinx filters take some manipulating to fit next to the IC piping. I don't know how anyone could spend $500+ on a HKS Racing Suction Kit. You're half way to a PFC!!

yeah, all class. Gotta love a magazine that goes to cruises and shows, takes pics of the 'saucy' girls, then asks a standard set of questions that includes things such as 'pink or brown?' (ie; where do you prefer it?)
