Evo X sidewinder

The full sponsered Evo X is done and running great. We put down 646hp on this bone stock motor and stock ecu with our custom fuel system and precision billet 6765 with our sidewinder kit. We should have some track times this week. After that we'll be building the motor to squeeze out the most horsepower possible. Stay tuned everyone :)

O Snap V-Mount

The next step is finished!!!!! The long awaited v-mount set up is complete. We also installed the Tial Q 50mm BOV. The intercooler is a DTM with costume fabthis intanks. Theres also our costume stainless radiator hoses. The car runs great with the new v-mount, iv actually noticed the car runs 35F cooler between 40-55 mph's then with the old front mount. Theres actually a couple reasons that make a proper v-mount set up badass. One of the main reasons is cooler engine temps, not just the coolent and radiator but the IAT's (Intake Air Temp) will be lower as well. The intercooler now has air going through it and over top of it, meaning more surface area getting air. The radiator is now alot cooler because it does not have the warm front mount air and the fins are actually getting alot more direct air. Instead of the air just going through the radiator, the air hits the fins then deflects on through the fins.  Better throttle response in re-turn gives you better spool and better boost efficiency. This set-up also puts alot less strain on the turbo. Example: Say you are pushing 30 lbs of boost. Your boost gauge is hooked up to your intake and your making 30 lbs at your intake. But your pushing id say 32-34 lbs at the turbo to make your target boost at your intake. Because your trying to push that boost through 5 or 6 feet of intercooler piping and a front mount. By taking away all that pipe you are making it alot easier to push the air from one side to the other side. As always thank you for your support :)

Forward Facing Evo

So we decided to be different and make a forward facing turbo kit on this Evo. Most people make them on the passenger side. We put it on the driver side. This car will retain A/C. Also will have a filter on the turbo because this is still a daily driver. More pics up soon

SRT4 is alive

After a very long wait and set back, the srt4 is finally done. It sounds nasty and all it needs is a good tune and it'll be out on the streets in no time.

Built LS VTEC

We are currently working on a Honda Civic hatch, that will have a built Ls VTEC engine and our fabthis turbo kit. This is a topmount setup with a Precision 6765 turbo, Precision 46mm wastegate, Tial BOV, custom intercooler and piping, and the downpipe and dumptube exiting out of the side of the bumper. Project will be done this week so come back and check out the final product.

Tour This!

Ok, let’s update something on the blog lol. Ill give everyone a little tour of our work area. Let’s start with the best thing ever, our 10 foot long stainless steel Matco welding table. This table is awesome and kicks other tables asses. DB Fab uses a Miller Dynasty 200DX. This is a great welder and small enough for portable traveling. The Dynasty does everything we need when it comes to stainless or mild steel. It’s never lets us down and puts out perfect welds. It produces perfect “machine-like” aluminum welds. Of course, most of the skill and technique comes from the welder them-selves, and I’ve gotta say we’re pretty awesome lol. Our Jet Bandsaw delivers perfect, straight and clean cuts. In addition we have the standard requirements for any fabricator: measuring tapes, drills, belt-sanders, wire-wheels, hole-saws, compressor, various air tools, 5 full tool boxes, engine stands, cut off wheels, polishers and the list goes on. That’s a brief look into our small shop that delivers huge products. What can we FAB for you? More pictures in our Gallery
