That was at 9.5 psi. I am now running 11 psi and will be installing the 3 bar map sensor, arp head studs, y8 intake manifold and tuning for 15 psi next weekend.

Ill post more #'s and dyno sheets then.

some people just don't wanna believe it.....

I was making 180WHP @ 6.5 PSI W/180ft/lbs to back it up.
Tourque owns! </TD></TR></TABLE>

damn good numbers for a DX. i'm sure i woulda made like about 5 less whp and way less torque @ 6.5psi

 

In my opinion, you should pop for Hondata...

It will run so much better, and the power gains will be there.

Ditch the exhaust and run open-DP, just for *****.

yah iknow it will... all in due time... i'm changing my shitty old turbo first of all and going obd1. then somewhere along the line definitely hondata. And I like to run/dyno the car as I drive it on the street daily. Only after I've done that do i see what it can do with stuff like open dp. hehehe

 

Well i think your problem is the bluebox and the lack of an intercooler. The key to any turboed car is the fuel management once you get that all together then i doubt you will be disappointed.

 

Intercooler isa MUST

upgrade the Downpipe (its too tiny, like my greddy one)

High flow cat (2.5" or 3")

Hondata S200

Boost @ 8 psi youll be fine

See my #'s with the greddy, i have to install a lot of stuff once my flex pipe comes, ill be sure to very close to 200whp by just opening the exhuast!! The greddy DP is like 1.9"

 

ooh im pretty sure my DP is 2.5 cause a 2.25 gasket would not fit on the end of it, i had to mash it on there. and im hollowing out my cat this weeknd, so yeah then ill have 2.5 all the way back, if not more where my cat is.

 

dyno dyno dyno...the dyno never lies especially with wideband...check ur compression and see if ur car is good to start with...make sure u got all the plugs, fuel and get a boost gauge to see if ur holding boost...most kits spikes a lil so check everything out...read the sig and sohc turbo can own pretty damn well...7 psi i made 160whp and 150tq untuned...

 

elite is in your sig....go there and get that **** tuned...tomorrow...and then bring it to the mnsportcompacts meet this saturday...muhahahahaa...i would like to see it....dont get too many nice cars to look at here in this hick city (st.cloud)....so i gotta migrate to teh cities to see them....

 

Well you do need some fuel management, what about getting a V-AFC, DSM injectors, resister pack and going to a dyno.

 

i had the apexi kit and even with an automatic i could walk on gsr's with i/h/e. its definately the lack of intercooler.

seriously its not gonna rip you out of your seat power but its scoots pretty well i'd say. as for me, i'm leavin the sohc turbo camp and goin dohc turbo. but sohc power forever yo

 

boosted sohc!
Mines puttin down 146 whp and 140 wtq @ 5.5 psi, and most dohc's cant hang with me!!

 

I killed bolton GSR's with 6psi, no intercooler; I bet he has a slipping clutch

 

if i shift fast my car goes ERR ERR ERRR and bucks before it finally starts to accelerate! ahah its kinda wierd. i have to shift slow and slowly put my foot to thbe floor to get going in a hurry.

 

It sounds like you don't have a blow off valve. Post your setup!

 

apexi turbo kit
Blitz SSDD blow off valve
Greddy MBC
Greddy blue box
NGK bkr7e plugs
stock injectors
stock fuel pump
stock timing
i have an Intercooler but it is not on yet
also an obd1 conversion, P28 ecu
boost is at 5.5 psi but it rises to 6 in like 1-3rd gear. IF you want to know anything else let me know ill post it.

 

What do your spark plugs look like?

 

try to use different plugs..i think you're running to cold of a temp
try your stock plugs and see if there's a difference

 

those are the plugs everyone told me to use! anyway, ill take a peak this weekend.

Thats very true. My boosted sohc feels like stock slow to me anymore because when im driving im just paying attention to driving and im used to it. I often wondered if my car is runnin right because it felt so weak sometimes, but then id run into a 5.0 stang or dsm on the street and realize it must be runnin decent, plus it still impressed my friends. However if I let my buddy drive while I ride, I can just sit back and enjoy and it seems like it pulls way harder, It pleases me everytime.
I say get rid of the cat asap. Also it might be worth a shot to try warmer plugs, I run the 6 series versus 7 on my sohc with no problems. Its only 8 bucks plus tax for a round of ngk coppers.
