so putting the motor together getting the cams dialed in and got a huge pile of brand spanking new parts, harware,timing covers and ta da wrong timing belt. I ordered a 14400-P2T-004 and I got a 14400-PT2-004 instead. I WISH I HAD A 2.2 stroker ! ! ! but this isnt gonna work Thanks HONDA for dropping the ball on me......yay more down time.

 

Yea I wouldn't drive the DA, one main reason is gas is expensive esp with 93 and 1000cc injectors.

 

Killing me. I have 1000cc injectors too... Last year a friend I went with took his CTR with <20k miles, another friend took his built boosted K with a 6 gallon fuel cell, and ANOTHER friend took his 700 whp B with 1600cc injectors. 1000cc injectors shouldn't affect your mpg that much if you're out of boost? Anyways, not going to keep pestering you beyond this one coast...

 

lol

 

Technically barely in boost yields better gas mielage, on a good afr tune. The engine doesn't work as hard, which requires less fuel and less air. Also, the fuel atomizes better barely in boost, and thus, a better more efficient burn, which also equals less work from the engine. etc.

 

hahahha I may but who knows. Honestly it hasn't been on a road trip in years. Kinda nervous. If I did I would have to get cruising smoothed out(A/F wise) before I went to help conserve some gas.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!

What is barely in boost? and how can that be done during cruising, brake boosting the whole time

 

i would think it would explain itself, barely in boost means, just entering boost. Like in my friends 2010 wrx he got better gas milage at 80 mph than at 75 because at 80 mph he was barely in boost(at very low boost) rather than trying to stay out of it while cruising.

often turbo cars get better gas milage when they are drove the right way, but most often dont becuase of people using the power side of the car.

come on matt i know you know this already.. plus u cant brake boost a FWD car.. lol

 

matt and dave.... you guys goin to ifo at capital this weekend?

 

Hahah just messing with you and sure you can brake boot a FWD car. Just ride the brakes and apply more throttle. Provides the load needed to boooooooooooooooooooooostttttttttttt.


Of course!
You coming down?

 

That teg is so clean, I have my new paint sitting at garage and I put it off this winter, I should of just did it...


Matt I got 37mpg in my teg last summer on a road trip with bosch 1000

 

I brake boost all the time, best way to smoke fast v8's haha

 

Jebus, holy lean cruising lol!
Yea, like I said I'd have to do tons of logging to adjust cruising A/F. It sucks because I've been doing that the last few months to keep the car running good. Big thing that sucks about having it on the dyno in 100+ temps.
Going back for a retune soon though.


Hahha you don't need it!

Where you been?!?

 

hey jj you going to test and tune tomorrow

 

I would never risk that stress on my axles and the possibility of ruining my front brakes by brake a fwd car. Have ur car tuned to boost by gear and brake boosting isn't needed. Lol

 

By brake boosting a fwd car *

 

Boost by gear is traction control, brake boosting is totally different.
BBG simply allows for different levels of boost to be ran per gear/rpm while brake boosting spools the turbo similar to anti-lag for instant boost instead of waiting for boost to build.

 

ooo, i did not know that, still wouldnt want to apply the brakes while the axles are trying to spin that same hub.. to me its twom parts fighting each other, while each applying load to the other. Just seems like something is doomed to fail one day, doing that. That or it puts a hell of amount of stress on those wheel bearings.

 

hey what manifold is this? nuiken?

 

well, i'd really like to. not sure if things will fall in line for me to be able to do so though. i'll keep you posted

 

good luck with that billet MSD,ive seen them **** the bed time and time again.

Is it just me, or does that trailer has mesh wheels?^^

Nice cars too!

 

Yeah always loved my friends trailer & thanks

 

Eeek is that an SS auto crome mani?

Glad to see it coming together!
