Hey fellas, i dyno'd my daily driver. its an 00 Si with a crap ebay intake.

hit a WHOPPING 135whp. think i hit like 101 tq. not sure.. but i do have to say, this car is DEATHLY slow.. im scared it wont get out of its own way sometimes..


i have an obx header just sitting in the garage for a b series, i just dont know for sure if it will fit or not. i dont want to go through all the time to put it in if its the wrong one.. but even then, with intake header and exhuast, it MIGHT hit a whole 140 to the wheels.. seems like thats not worth my time..

thought i would share

wow what are the usual numbers for a basically stock b16a2? have you done compression test? what kind of oil do you use? mileage on the motor? was it always n/a or boosted before?

luckybull

from what i hear, thats right in line with what it should be.

not sure on oil, as i dont change it, i have my buddies shop do it, so i dont know whats in it.

its always been stock. never boosted or n2o. it has 68k miles

spork motorsports

thats a stock b16a for ya, now is it easier to make the decison between a b16a swap and a suzuki vitara build up for the same cost ?

yea dude my ej1 i/h/e ran circles around em1's i/h/e there heavey and just weak sauce

well i'd suggest you not throw in the obx header and go with a dc 4-1 header.

how about a t3 t4 manifold instead of both?

luckybull

i thought about boosting it, but i dont want it to blow up!!!!!!

i already have a project car, i dont need another one. plus if i do boost it, 90% of kits make you get rid of AC.. i HAVE to keep ac in this car1!!!! i hate beig hot

dayne808

spork motorsports

Those numbers sound pretty good for a stock b16 with cheap intake.

there are plenty of AC kits and manifolds. Full-Race, Peakboost, RLD, AFI, Spoolin, i could go on.

135whp is perfectly normal for a stock b16, stuck in an em1 and you dont have much of a power/weight ratio

bmoua

damn this thread is still going...if you thnk about it the b16 isnt much faster than the z6 or y8...i've drivin both stock...its really just the vtec that kicks in the b16...

greddy i also think drag manifolds still retain ac too

juevi

160hp less 15% drivetrain loss = 136 So give or take, those #'s are probably fine for that car.

kyle-Lst

peakboost makes a ramhorn that is ac compatible... thats what i would go with if i were you its good stuff proven to make good numbers. goodluck.

Libertariat

I'd swap in an LS motor, then boost that.

make some money on the motor too.

What do you have against the Greddy kit? I knew a guy who had it on his Si with Hondata and that thing made over 300hp to the wheels. Plenty of power for a daily driver, and in some cases, too much. I rode in it and it was fast as f*ck! Don't be so quick to dismiss the Greddy kits. They can be fast too. And he still had A/C.
