i think thats all anyways i blew my old motor up Jan. 19 of "05" yes 1 year 1 week ago. i didnt plan on getting a set-up this wild but it just happend one thing led to another and POW i got this. real quick i want to thank all of u great HT guys for helping me out this past year i didnt know to much about boosted hondas when i bought this car i was always an all motor guy but i love the dark side now.


its gets dyno tuned mon or tue cant wait. any predictions? tuner said we prolly wont push it any farther than 15 lbs on pump gas. my guess is 400-450 on 11-15 lbs. ???? we'll see.

i had a ? about the apexi avc-r. lets say my car is tuned for 14lbs and i select 4lbs for first gear. how will my car run proper on 4lbs at WOT when im tuned for 14lbs???? sorry if this is a dumb question but i havent found anyone or anything to help me out with this ? so its time to ask. thanx guys

First of all, sick setup.

Second of all, I'm sure your car will run fine at 4 psi, since it's tuned for 14 psi. It has to go through 4 psi to get there.

mattcivic

it wont be hella rich only hitting 4lbs? this just confuses the hell out of me. thanx

slowteg550

It will run perfect (assuming the tune is right) at 4 psi, wot. The fuel delivery is dependant upon boost, so whether you are running 6 psi, 10 psi, or whatever, the af will stay wherever you tuned it at.

The fuel would be linear between low and hi boost
Whats your bore?

slowteg550

says 84mm up there

Very similar to my setup, so I'm excited to see what you make. I have a 85mm b18a w/9.1 JE's, crower billet steel rods, b18c1 head, skunk 2 stage 1 na cams, ferrea stock sized valves, skunk 2 dual springs, crower titanium retainers, and a will be tuned on 110 octane. I'm hoping for 550 whp

Nice build

EARLdaSQUIRREL

very nice car and very nice build... as for you running 4lbs, you wont be able to run any less boost then what your wastegate spring is... so if you have a 7lb spring the least amount of boost you can run is 7lbs...

also when the tuner tunes the car he will start tuning at the lowest amount of boost and progressively turn up the boost and tune so that way your cels in your maps are all tuned and you will be able to run from lowest set boost to the highest he tuned without having to worry

sick set up should be making good numbers cant wait to see it

SpeedingHatch

prediction of 389 wheel @ 14 psi

(I dont want to over bid and lose)

mattcivic

ahh i see how it worx now. i dont know what spring i have in my WG but thanx for explaining that. i didnt get a phone call today on the car so im guessing its gunna be tomarrow that it gets tuned. and thanx for the compliments on the car and the build. i will post the numers as soon as i get them and then get you guys a pic of the dyno graph as well. im picking the car up friday evening ill let ya know how i like it.

stage 1 NA cams how do u like those? i have a buddy with stage 1's hes gunna upgrade to stage 2's soon would using his old stage 1's be a good idea? what about a set of turbo cams any recomendations?

vtecspeed1320

hey man im gonna be excited to see what you get out of it. I have heard from several people that stage 1 n/a cams are better than turbo cams I dont know though.

slowteg550

For the most part, ITR or Skunk 2 Stage 1 NA cams (both are pretty much the same thing) are two of the better cams that are easy to get your hands on for a high hp boosted application. I hear of gains from 30-90 HP over GSR cams w/ITRs or skunk 2 s1's.. I don't have my setup together yet, so I can't tell you personally how I like them..

mattcivic

hhmm ill have to see. i talked to my buddy and hes not upgrading to stage2's hes supercharging his car and thinks that his stock gsr cams will work better. i sware a long long time ago i was looking into supercharging a car of mine and jackson says to stick with yer stock cams. anyways still no call from Reid if he doesnt call me by 5 tomarrow im gunna get a hold of him and see whats up. if i can get a ride down i migh go pick it up wed but i work early and its a long drive there and back. total of 5 hours!

vtecspeed1320

Thats what I have heard about the skunk 2 stg 1's its a big increase in power. I would do it if i was you. Especially if your looking for super solid numbers.

Wow, you have done an excellent job of building that GSR! Good luck with the tuning, after its tuned I would love to see some vids with the front end on it and ~400hp propeling it

mattcivic

Well i called on the car today Reid said they were still just street tuning it and he will call me when its done expletive! im not mad at reid or the guys at Kaizen im just gettin ancy. as soon as i know anything ill let u guys know sorry to get yer hopes up.

Well the car is an animal,.... feels very good... wish we could do a race gas tune for you now, but I guess we can wait until spring, if you insist.

As for the AVC-R, yes it does have to go through 4psi to get to 15, but since the wastegate spring is set at 15 psi, that is the lowest load I can tune for throughout the entire RPM range at WOT. I have made the lower load fuel curve match in shape to the higher load (15psi) fuel curve, and estimated the percentage of fuel across the RPM range at the lower load (4psi)....

Right now the car runs perfectly, we're revving to 8,500 RPM because I don't think it makes a whole lot more power beyond that, but we'll see. We might raise it to 9,000 if it is still making power, we'll see when we put it on the dyno... 10 A.M. tomorrow (Saturday 1/28) weather permitting.

mattcivic

ahh there ya go people. i guess give me a call in the morning or ill call ya at like 3 or so to see whats up. i hate being so far from the shop its a pain getting a ride out there. thanx again guys.

0KStuned

We'll call you tomorrow and you can come get her. Take care.
