Went today for the first time since dyno was installed. Turned the boost up to 14psi on my 98 Integra LS. The results?

272 horsepower at the wheels
217 lb feet of torque

Stock motor except for Crower 62402 cams

 

B16 head will do the job just right

 

not to sound like a dick....but shouldnt the HP be a little higher? was the car tuned at all? also was there a wideband reading?

 

nice. I hope that I can see those kind of numbers when I get it all together!

 

Excellent man!

 

That horsepower sounds great to me for a stock ls motor

 

Very nice dyno....what turbo are you running? Intercooled?

14psi is a lot of boost for the stock motor. You might want to consider investing in a block guard.

 

Good torque numbers.

 

Looks good, but I want to see the air to fuel readings...

I thought you had a drag kit? Tell me you aren't trying to run 14psi on the FMU....

 

14psi? no offense man but u r lacking some power.. you should have MUCH higher torque and definitly more hp.. U may be leaning out, did u get A/F readings? keep in mind I made 230/200 on just an FMU no tuning with a T3/T04e on an LS, u should have ALOT more torque with an extra 6psi, and especially have more hp too..

 

Not bad for a stock motor...

 

motor is not totally stock....he has crower cams
good #'s but hopefully those cams can hold up

 

congrads on the dyno. i dont want to sound like a dick either, but the things ive heard just dont make sense. 14psi would put you in the 300hp range easily, but then again you dont have any other work done but just cams... if you are running a stock motor.... well i find it hard to believe you pushed 14psi and didnt blow it up. count your blessings, i would not recommend running 14psi like this 24-7. i guess you are that "guy with a stock motor running 14psi and having no problems" that i hear so much about, hehe.

I know of a guy running 14psi stock motor LS w/ Drag 3 kit putting out 330whp.. hes not running stock injectors with FMU either.. 9.2:1 compression is perfectly safe at 14psi with proper a/f and timing, only reason u would blow it up is because its making too much power for the cast pistons/rods and stock sleeves to handle.. in gigantors case he is not making near enough power, and id put money on it that its because hes running insane fuel pressure and leaning out.

14psi on an LS motor can be done, and there are many people who have done it.. Even St00pid pushed 20psi on pump gas, bone stock motor!

well i guess that i'm one of those "guys"

i've pushed:
13 lbs on pump gas with only a headgasket - stock head/block/pistons/rods
21 lbs on race gas with only headgasket - stock head/block/pistons/rods
did that for over a year.

now i'm running 450 hsp to the wheels on stock honda sleeves, 10:1 pistons, and a 9.2:1 inlinepro headgasket. (and they said it couldn't be done. )

get your facts straight.
