Could someone elaborate with feedback on tuning a stock SOHC Vtec
Yes...reason
No...reason

Thanx

 

Anybody any feedback?

 

Maybe you want to rephrase your question? Are you trying to ask if a sohc vtec is worth building? Or if it's worth tuning a stock engine?(answer here is no)

I meant will it be worth tuning a stock sohc?

 

with the addition of a turbo..?

It is always worth tuning a motor over stock.. but some won't put the time into it because it is a stock car.. it doesn't matter if it runs good or not.. it is stock.. haha

no, what are you going to tune? There's not really any free power in a stock motor, i've heard of people advancing timing but that's about it.

 

Well I was told by someone on here not to mention names that I can tune fuel pressure get a header and cai and pull some xtra power from the motor

ahhhhh ok
just so you know, adding an intake, header, and exhaust doesn't make your car stock anymore. Those mods would make it modded. But from what i understand an intake, header, and exhaust are more or less the minimum for tuning. So yes if you have those mods it may be beneficial to tune.

Just so you're not disappointed, don't look for huge gains, prolly about 10hp for all 3 mods(just throwing out a guess). D series aren't much for NA, though you can make power with them NA it's easier with a DOHC vtec engine. Don't get it twisted it still costs a good amount of money for HP from them. If you're looking for a bigger boost in power i'd save for a turbo or a swap.

In the future just try to be more specific if you can.
