Re: Pics of my EM1 Si + mods list *56K - DONT EVEN TRY!* (kleanlscivic)
UPDATE:
So I bumped the compression up to ~ 11.2:1 and added the Skunk 2 Stage 2 cams. I soon found out after that though, that my car was starving for fuel...
Well I added the RC370 injectors then got the whole deal dyno tuned. The car builds power all the way to fuel cut in one continuous surge of power. Odd thing is that with these cams there is no "VTEC spike", like with the stock cams. This is partly because of the cam and partly because of the tune. Incase you are wondering, yes this is a good thing.
BTW... that dip you see is before we fine tuned the tune so to speak. the other line is the final state of tune. VTEC was comming on too late creating a large dip in power for 1500RPM before it shot back up. That was bad.
Unfourtionatly the torque pickup melted on the turbo manifold of the car on the dyno right before me. so i didnt get a tq read.
184 on a dyno thats notorious for reading low. Given the average difference between this and other dynojets I should be right at 190WHP.
Of course my main bottle nec k now is the stock B16 intake manifold and throttle body. Those need to get upgraded ASAP. CHanging those out will be more then enough to get me up to 200WHP.
After that Ill have some major porting done to the head. That wil be good for another 15-20WHP. And I would be pretty happy with a 215-220WHP NA 1.8l motor that makes power up to 9200RPM.
After that? Ill probably either sell the car and get something RWD or up the compression with a larger HG and add a turbo. Ill shoot for ~300WHP.
