Ehh **** happens. I shut it down quick so nothing serious happened. Just a piston and the head. Which the head was completely stock so it wasn't a huge loss.
I was revving it to 8,250 for 4k miles. When I ran 18 psi it was hitting the rev limiter pretty hard. I guess I should have put some valve springs and retainers in it. Oh well. It was fun. Ill have it fixed before too long.
Are you still on the 61mm? You have that biotch scooting!!

Made 418 and 290 on 14.5 psi. Got real nervous on the dyno and backed it off. Running it at 9 lbs until I get some e85 in it then Im turning it way up.

Got a 10 in it for sure. Get that 60 down.

ekcivicf20b

For sure man. I was on 2-3 year old used and worn slicks. I was hoping they lasted through this event just for practice. I got my monies worth out of them. Ill be on M&H 24.5/8.5's for the next race. With a couple more whp's too!

good **** dude!

now tune my car :D

im telling ya lets do metro cruise

ekcivicf20b

You should have met us over there man. We could have gone through it.

ekcivicf20b

Ordered ebc red stuff pads, waiting on the Ebc rotors, and some cheap rear drums. Stopping was not ideal at the strip with 6.5-7 psi of air in the tires.

ekcivicf20b

Rhodes Racing Roll Bar. New M&H slicks are next. Now really just bump the power up and waiting on the next test and tune day.

YESSS!!! THAT mph is wicked quick for low boost bro!

Ya, the car is still on the sc61DBB. Im looking at the 6768 and hood exit with rear bumper holes and kirkys... Axles exploded last outing...

Those alone should get us a single digit pass.

Awesome progress!

PS: at 14psi the integra makes 450 on 93... I wouldn't say your dyno is that far off!

ekcivicf20b

Hell yea. I was pretty happy with the 130mph passes. Im going to go 15-16-17 psi for the next track day depending on power levels. Get it around 450-475. Yea, I made 441@15.7 psi 93 octane on the h22. The 418whp on 93 with the F20B I was really sensitive with timing lol. I use the smoothing 3/4 on the dyno. They call for 1-2 depending on torque of the car but sometimes it seems a little far fetched. It seems to give me a happy median between other dynos.
Good luck though man! Hope you get a 9 soon.
I just received the M&H's today so Im hoping to get some 1.55-1.6 60's. I was really surprised that I pulled a few 1.72-1.73's with the MT's that I had. They were pretty hard and very worn.

Ive been so busy working all year I am going to take some time and play before the summer is over.

Glad to see you making progress.

If you ride out first gear a little longer you'll see some 60' improvements. Looks like you shift just before the box. You'll see that it will improve all your incremental numbers.

Please keep your helmet on till you get off the track. Saw you get a little squirrelly on the last vid. I'd hate to see you crash with no dome protection.

ekcivicf20b

I had the rev limiter on 8,100 in first, should I give it a little more? Im right on the limiter even hit it a couple times on accident. Thanks for the pointers though! Yea, I should have left it on, I wasn't even thinking about it until I watched the video when I raced my buddies dsm. It was so hot that day all I could think was BREATHE! haha. Ill give first 2-300 more rpms and see how it is. I know in the logs and you can see a little when it was hooking it would drop from 8k down to 6,400 and come back up. It was hot and pulling 4 degrees of timing all day also. Im going to put the fan on a toggle and let it run while it is sitting just to try and keep it breathing. It wasn't getting warm but by the time I warmed up the tires and was waiting for the lights it was 185-195 all day. Not sure if I should or want to zero out the boxes and command it "not to pull timing". Either way, Im going back with 450whp give or take next time. It should be enough to keep me from dipping in the rpm's in the beginning.

The F20b Held 15 psi great for 2 whole days. About 200 miles of abuse ... but once I hit the 17 psi mark, it broke the piston in half and lodged in the sleeve causing it to blow the sleeve out at the bottom. Now we know a little about where there is failure on there. Head gasket is mint, not a single issue with it. Oem headstuds held fine. Ill be putting another one in this week and taking it back to the track on 14/15 psi!

ekcivicf20b

Bought Myself a Birthday present today too! 87.5mm pistons for the sleeved block. Sending it out for bore in the next few weeks and slowly putting it back together.

F20b round two!

Hey man! I'm really happy for you. It looks like you making big moves. Now you got your own shop! Holy moly. I remember when you were showing me pictures of your hatch in EFI101 now you doing it big.

Keep going hard.

damn you blew it again!

boy that particle board garage and snow takes me way back to when I was a kid growing up in Northeast Ohio, doing the same fun stuff, just different cars. Great build
