i have a 99 civic w/ a b18c type r and currently i have 205 hp to the wheels i have a lot of the basics done and i want some advice of what i should do next to my car to get more power w/o getting turbo

bmoua

a list of your motor mods would help US help YOU

mycivicsi

i havent done much just intake, manifold, headers, exhaust, changed the computer to an obd1, thats about it

bmoua

stage 2/3 cams, upgraded vavle's trains, retainers and aftermarket cam gears would do the trick. After a good tune you should be satisfied with the outcome. What kind of ecu are you running?

Personally if i had a ITR motor i would go i/h/e chipped ecu and spend the rest on suspension and apperance.

mycivicsi

well i forgot to mention i have stage 2 cams and aftermarket cam gears. i also the type r lip and tien coilovers plus i have 5 zigen fno1r-c wheels and i have jdm lights the car is really clean looking and its pretty quick but i want more power cause the motor it has i can get a lot more power

so what do you have in the security department??? with that motor and all of those mods, you can't be running a basic alarm with club lock.

what kind of stage 2 cams? any tuning done??

mycivicsi

well i take some precausions the car is in a garage and it doesnt come out plus i take off the stearing wheel. what kind of security alarm should i get? well im pretty sure the cams are skunk 2 cause my brother put them in before he gave me the car but im pretty sure thats what they are

Upgrade your pistons/rods/valvetrain, sleeve the block and throw some giggle juice on there. Instant HP.

This again doesn't say much. What specific (as in brand and type) parts have you installed?

Lscivic1999

not enough info from him..

cartune network

idunno man 205whp sounds pretty decent. im making 216whp on mine with basic boltons except for the cams and a minor port.

mycivicsi

i no its pretty good but i still want more power

Bigger T/B
Injectors
and then TUNE it

Injectors dont just make power. Dont buy them unless you really need them to keep from going lean.

You need to invest in security before you buy anything else bro. You own a ITR bro not a beater, i'd suggest you find a legit shop in your area. Go with only DEI alarms, get the extras and make sure the shop does a stealth install. All of those mods mean nothing when your car is gone bro...

and bro he has most of the bolt ons like he stated and these would be the last bolt ons i can think of and unless h dont have those he can make more pwr with T/B Injectors and tune ( those were my last bolt ons 440 DSM injectors, JG T/B and hondata tune i havent gone to the dyno but races V8's and raping them )

smileycvc

Injectors are not a bolt on. Im glad you bought them and you rape v8s. If you make say 200whp on stock injectors and they are not maxed out then your not going to make anymore power by getting bigger injectors. You only need injectors if yours are maxed out wait until you get on a dyno or you can figure out what duty cycle your injectors are running.

cartune network

^^^^^ true but u also dont want to be a a 96% duty cycle on 240cc injectors cause all it takes is one injector to get stuck and bye bye motor. at 205whp i could imagine ur duty cycle is pretty high. i would swap the 240cc's out for maybe some prelude h injectors which i believe are a 310cc which is alot better and if u go get a retune im sure ur tuner will be able to pump out more power because he now has more room to play around with it.

doood

iTrader: (1)

do you actually have 205whp confirmed on a dyno? or is this some number you just threw out there?
