  1. Looks like twin turbos on a 4 cylinder engine with intake manifold on the right and exhaust manifold on the left where it can drive the turbos. The curve of the timing belt sort of precludes there being another bank of cylinders. Of course, I could be wrong.

  2. Did that come standard on a Civic?

  3. Must of just finished fabricating the pipe assembly, it hasn't developed that nice 304L stainless patina from exhaust heat. And that thing is gonna get so hot it glows high orange to yellow.

  4. I just changed the spark plugs on my 2007 CRV and those coil packs look exactly the same. Bolts are in the same spot and angled like that as well.

  5. Rice burner probably whines like an angry wasp. Bet it is a hoot to drive.

  6. The photog is standing over the right front tire. That is two small turbos developed for the sub liter powerboat racing by IHI. The 1-3 cylinders feed left hand side and 2-4 feed right hand side but alas no as all feed to a common plenum feeding both mirror version turbos. It is also V-tec variable cam phasing and lift. When it hits, it hits and it doesn't whine, it whistles and pops. He has some more plumbing to do on the oil feeds and exhaust shielding.
