whats wrong with the y8?

THEDirtyDseriesWOOT

its gay for hihg boost tq falls off @ 7100

Iceman05

edelbrock FTW! 15psi with that manifold feels like 20 used to with my stock Y8 mani... yeah, big diff.

1sic3dr

yes i wil be boosting it hi at about 22psi. it is on 14psi now and the stock manifold is killing my power. how about skunk2 manifolds i know people use them on all-motor b-series builds not real sure about turbo d-series builds?

THEDirtyDseriesWOOT

low boost = skunk 2
high boost= edelbrock

ehh, Im running 32 psi with a skunk2 manny.

I have my STR (Golden Eagle) Im switching back to after this weekend though.

I dont think there is much difference between the Performer X and the Skunk 2 manny myself. I have owned both.

i think a going to go with the skunk2 theirs not much difference between them i can see my also. was the hp or tg numbers different between the two?

1sic3dr

I'm suprised they even let you own a honda where you live! LOL

Rota is right though. Not much difference between any of the d-series mannys unless you have extensive head work done.

1sic3dr

yes i understand what you are saying. the head has been ported the value seats have been opened as much as we could with the stock value it has a three angle value job and comp springs and retainers and a crower cam ... it has srp 9:0.1 pistions,str block guard, and eagle h-bem rods. the turbo is a t3t04e 57trim. i am going go with the performer x. i think it will be worth the buck after talking to all of yall that have had high hp sohc.

HatchEh2

yea.. the factory Y8 manifold cant flow for ****.. thats why this stock z6 with only a y8 manifold made 430 to the wheels...

its a sohc... you can only expect so much.. i was gonna build my z6.. till i saw this 2yrs ago and decided to sell my pistons and rods and all other expensive parts i was gonna put in it. put money in the turbo kit.. cuz when you go with another platform, you only need a new Turbo mani. but in the end... a sohc blows up, your in the hole $300 at MOST.

gains from a new intake Mani &lt; gains from a better turbo/mani/downpipe/more efficent intercooler/etc and having them be platform transferable

just my .02

THEDirtyDseriesWOOT

yall cant reply with that car... it doesent relate to any other d-series in the world.. cause the pope had to have blessed that bitch with some holy water in the radiator.. lol

quicksilver1689

yeah it was surely blessed maybe holy engine oil that makes parts stronger.
