I understand the pain, going thru the same myself. Btw we all have planned up a trip to Thekkady once you come back. You better tag along.

@memo.. initial impression WOW. Nice job! 140 horses should be a realistic figure, i guess. Man, give us more details and pics..

Well it nice only to know the car is ready, but I have no clue as to what has been actually done or what is the state of tune exactly, as I sit half the world apart in Denver. So I am exually waiting like all of you for the pics and the report.

Memo's kit is the first HKS official bolt-on-turbo install in this part of the world and no, its not funded by RD or HKS.... atleast not for now.

navpreet318 · 26th August 2008, 10:40

So is there an HKS official bolt on kit for the Civic too?

crazydiablo · 26th August 2008, 15:06

We need a list of parts supplied by HKS and for whic cars.

Memo: Appreciate you patience man.

raghu.t.k · 26th August 2008, 17:10

Congrats. Do write a detailed report on how it feels and costs. Also are the clutch and brakes stock or in the process of upgrade..

It would have been nice to have disc on all four wheels.

Ricky:Hehe.it will come.and i'll do it.but it'll take time and more so the money.i hope the price doesn't go through the roof.and i hope the tuning part gets easier.from what i have learnt and heard from akshay(v1p3r) its not so hard but yes it is tough.especially up here in north where we have very few people who can do this stuff.(read few as none).
