need some information.......i want it to be a safe daily driven car....

 

do u even have a choice living in cali.


u are gonna have to pull some timing at the distributor.

get that thing tuned asap.

 

i wouldent run them in cali
this is why most ppl like myself go with pr3 or p30 pistons

 

what should i set the timming at? when i retard it my motor sounds like **** it seem to bogg...

 

needs to be tuned

 

Sup im from fresno too.. Had that same exact set up dude.. It all depends what head u are going to use also.. with a b16 head the comp will be around 12.6-12.7.. With a gsr head the comp will be 13.2ish.. which will make a world of difference.. I ran an LSV with a b16 head and i never occured any pinging/detonation at all running on 91.. It was partially tuned

 

a gsr head will only raise compression by .2 compared to a b16 head

 

i had ctr pistons in my B18c1, my compression was ~13.2, i would think in an lsvtec with a pr3 head or a gsr head, your cr will still be over 13........
in my motor i had to use octane boost to stop the pinging, also on hot days... it pings very easily... this was on an untuned motor
we had better results when we used a thicker hg, and switched to a b16 to lower cr
but to answer your question.... get it tune and don't punch it

 

did ur motor idel good? my doesent...it kinda boggs at normal idel sounds like those wrx motors if u ever herd those piece of **** before.... but my compression is good 285-295 psi across....

 

ive punch it couple of times and i even fucken miss shift too.... but i will get it tune this friday and will be giving u guys some results..... should i tuned it with 91 octane?

 

i did it for a long time,......i would pull distributor timing ALOT.....ran like a slug on 91

pump/race mix and it was friday night *** whippings for everyone else at the streetraces

 

its weird how when i had the gsr head on, it idle fine...
but with the b16 head, every cold start... it would idle like a monster....
i don't know why there was a difference....
and i think you should dyno with what you will most often use...
and also dyno with race fuel... 2 chips, one for racing, one for daily driving

WRX motors are porsche motors ... i really wouldnt call them crap

 

hey i got some questions?? i just threw in some skunk2 stage2 cams, loww end feels pretty good but when vtec engage, it slows down...u could feel the car pulling back and slowing down ... i dont kno wat im suppose to do...the aem cam gear is set on advance intake is at 2 degree advance and exhaust is at 1 degree advance and i set the crank pulley to 2 degree retard....which is at 14 degree....where should i set all of the timings at?? heres my set up
b16a head non port, skunk2 springs and titanium retainers,skunk2 intake manifol,skunk2 stage 2 cams, aem cam gears,
b18a block, ctr pistons,arp rod bolt,

 

dude you need to tune it somehow even if your using a afc tune it at a shop get a/f ratio you gonna bog at vtec ifyou hav eno tuen man
id say a hondat 100 is order thats what im a gonna run this summer when i tuen my ls.vtec
