type s cams
type s pistons
new rods bearings and crank
head is ported and polished
skunk 2 cam gears
and has an exhaust setup
new timing belt
new waterpump
new gaskets
whole engines been gone through everything checked out

NirVTEC

Well, it looks pretty!
What header is that?
What are you going to tune with?

*Waits for people to speculate the HP/TQ #'s*
*Hopes you didn't actually SPEND $$$ on the P&P*

kornkid21792

you know what idk what header it is ha!
and thank you she is pretty
i was thinking maybe hondata or send the ecu to phareable

minilogoguy18

Well it's just that your every day run of the mill 4-2-1 header wont make any more power than the stock mani on the H22a unless you have a custom 2 1/2 collector, even then just a few ponies.

NirVTEC

Don't waste your time with that......

Hondata or eCtune.

kornkid21792

ya idk ill have to measure the header
and whats best the the s200 or s300

NirVTEC

IDK.....I am sending people towards eCtune as time goes on.
I personally have the S300 and IMHO you can't beat plugging a laptop in for RTP.

kornkid21792

ectunes the best eh alright i can try that i havent really tuned much is it user friendly

starbai

whatchu talkin bout here willis?

kornkid21792

hes talking bout the port and polish

NirVTEC

I was referring to spending money on a P&P for a build such as this being a waste of money.
Any questions?

starbai

Obviously I'm playing catchup here on the story so go easy on me...

I assume when you mean 'a build like this' you are meaning that he's not expecting to turbo it or do anything much more than just a simple rebuild/refurbish of the motor?

My prelude has 157k miles on it... doesn't run "right" to me... bought it this way... I plan on pulling the motor out refurbing/replacing building whatever I need to to make it "turbo ready" and build a turbo setup someday.

Every step that I CAN do myself, I WILL do myself as this is all a learning process for me... So when you say I hope he didn't port and polish, I honestly dont know why you're advising that?

Isn't it a good idea to clean everything up?

Again go easy on me, i dont know ****... i'm reading to learn here lol

NirVTEC

Mild Build=no need.
Money is just better spent elsewhere.

gstrudler

^lol, beat me to it.

I assume he's referring to the idea that the stock head flows well enough for a street build like this, and money spent on a p&p (which is generally expensive for a good job) would probably have been better spent elsewhere. I agree that porting will likely have not gained much (and perhaps lost some on the low end), although a 3-angle vj would be a worthwhile investment imho.

kornkid21792

lol i was offered it for free so i thought id take advantage of it

kornkid21792

what else are your guys thoughts
im thinking i should be around 180 190 whp idk about torque though
im pretty excited this was my first build

AdReNaLiN

Tune it with Neptune...

NirVTEC

I hope it doesn't hurt your power.....but the world will never know.

Don't try for predictions/speculations Dynos vary by 20%

kornkid21792

lol well i cant get to the dyno till later this year cuz its in denver so what do u speculate just for fun
and nah it wont i dont think at least
its and open exhaust and everything plus ill be doing some headwork

autoluder

Well doesnt port and polish bleed the compression a little, so he would of had to mill the head to get ahead some, but i guess the type S pistons give that bump,... my vote 195whp.

NirVTEC

Here we go

My guess: 12-17whp more than a stock H22A on the same dyno.

nus_dogg

The engine looks good.

Igaly

so u put type S cams and pistons......what Type S do u mean RSX type s tl type s or JDM prelude Type s

kornkid21792

type s prelude lol technically its a type s motor wich is 220 hp so that about 180ish to to the wheels with the full exhaust and a good tune i expect to be around 190ish
i would never put a non prelude part in my prelude that would be silly

and thanks for the comments any other thoughts
?

Euro R IM from Rosko, a better header and the 3 angle valve job that has already been suggested, right now it doesn't look like it would gain much power over stock...
