Built in tribute to David J. Horne

This build has a bit of a story behind it........ Almost two years ago(10-18-08) me and many other people lost a good friend when Dave Horne passed away in a motorcycle accident. After Dave passed Curt Miller (owner/operator of DynoTuned Performance) put on a dyno day (Sat.&Sun.) with all the money raised used to try and get Dave's project car back from the person he had recently traded it to. $4500 is what ended up being paid for the clean shell with no wheels, still had Dave's old brakes and suspension. (ridiculous I know but it is what it is I guess) The current owner was like Dave's little brother hence why it is his lol. Enough with all that talk here are the pics of the turbo kit and fuel rail I fabricated for this car enjoy. The turbo is an HTA series Tial turbo, stainless v banded exhaust housing, billet compressor wheel, ball bearing. Dart block, the only honda components in the motor currently are the crank and cams.

Sorry about the links I don't have those pics on my photobucket. Enjoy I don't do that bad of work for being an import guy and all........

great looking exhaust manifold. those lines for the catch can are a great touch.

good build.

Thank you. My time on this car was donated for Dave. Bryan the current owner helped do everything he could so its pretty much all how he wanted it.

Ditto def a fan of the black line. Looks clean and quick.

Dave was a good shit. Nice work.

Are you planning on posting this anywhere else? :)


Cool build. I'm a sucker for clean work, no matter what the platform.

Very cool build! Well done you guys! Your friend would be proud.

thanks guys !!!! This whole project has meant alot to me and everyone involved and for people to appreciate it and admire it just makes all the countless hours, more than worth it.

Looks great, way more impressed by the hand tigged parts like vents from VC and to breather tank than any store bought shiny tin.

Looks very clean! Always nice to see well done Honda.

Thanks........I did the 4" downpipe, wastegate dump, and the turbo manifold. Not much store bought stuff I even made the -10 fuel rail from extrusion to completed.
