Just wondering how high people are spinning their motors, and what setup they are running.

I am pondering on what to use in the head of my new motor, and wanted to see some other peoples stuff.

Thanks in advance

 

I've seen a couple threads like this before.
Anyway, stock GSR head, 85k miles, b16a, like 10k miles with p30 pistons
8500rpm rev limit butttt . . I beat it daily, but I only rev to about 7500-8000rpm's when I floor it. . .

 

10psi, stock b16 with ARP head studs, 8435rpm. I'll wind it out and boucne off the limiter like stupid when going fast.. but jsut for general quick wot blips to speed up as long as I hit VTEC, I'm already gonig fast enough.

 

9800

 

9200

 

9500

what motor specs?

 

right now, stock. it isnt boosted yet, but it will be in the next two weeks. i take it up to 9200 once a week on a stock head, doesnt really do anything past 8500 tho

 

stock head? damn man, you're flirting with disaster.

 

yea i know. i dont do it often, most of the time its 8k

 

you guys rev up to 9k + with force induction? what camshaft are u guys running?

 

yeah I have a b16 head with supertech valve train and GSR cams... I'm not sure what I should rev to while still playing it safe?

 

b16 pistons and rods

itr valve train GSR cams hits 9800 at least 10 times a day

 

ITR valvetrain? Jesus Christ. Those start to float around 9000...

 

stock ls.. 6500 passing 72-7400 racing (i know it doesn't make power above 7200)

its seen close to 8 a few times because of the always fun 2-3 miss

 

Probably about 6600. (considering my tach is off) I could take it up to 7200 but the thought of the engine going into redline never crossed my mind at the track

 

I rev as high as my powerband will allow before it starts falling off as long as its before the "safe" rev limit.. On the B16 that im building im going to put it on the dyno and do some boosted pulls to 9k and see if the power falls off before then, where the power falls off I shift..

BTW, Head is a stock B16 head with type-r valvetrain and portflow inner valve springs..
