Default Ridiculous post!

This is a post over at the Comptech message board. He writes all of this just to ask Mike at Comptech how much whp their I/H/E will give him. He is obviously trying to sound like some tech genius and it looks like he seriously has way too much time on his hands. This is hilarious!!:


Mike,

Thank you for taking the time to answer this post.
I want to buy an I,H,E system, right now I am performing
some research. I have a GSR with a stock bottom end.
I have more compression 10.8-11.5 depending on overlap period on cams from what I deduced with my acura tech
buddy who builds motors on-the-side.

I have 30 deg in there breathing now on stock I,H,E.
My last iteration was 158.5/121.4 with CTR/GSR making 19deg at 0,0. Since then I have added CFMs of air, cam tunability, I have both CTR/ITR 00-01 cams now with
lightened and stiffened valvetrain, head flow tricks, 5 angle job on intake side w/ITR intake valves, flat SS 28.5mm valves on the ex side, etc.
I ported my intake mani and tb and installed a thermal
break also bypassing coolant to TB... yada yada...

with my .445mm "gasket thickness" at +3,+2 (+4,+3) on the cams at 18BTDC the car pulls like mad now! I notice that the exhaust note at 6000-7800 deepens as the pulses pass through it. This is where you can really hear the overlap period at high lift and the IAB with the more air This is what I interpret as the intake pulses being so close together that they in fact phase and make vibration = needs to BREATHE!!! I need to dyno which I am doing tomorrow.

I expect based on the increase from the driver's seat over where I last was, I estimate I am at:
175-180+/130-135+ on stock I,H,E and ECU. I would probably
want to opt for the ITR products you offer for my car as I now have higher compression similar to that of an ITR. smae bore and stroke, only diff pistons and flow characteristics. I am sure your engineers have calculated that in your header design. I am saying only that this may better suit me than the GSR unit at this point if this is the case.

My question is what kind of gains would I see with say a full Ice Box and Intake, TypeR header and catback at
dead 0,0 cams and no fuel/vtec modifications. what kind of
% range increase are we talking here?

What do you think it could do % wise above that with cam tuning, 330cc injectors with say 45 base psi fuel and a VAFC to microtune? I have a really nice dyno guy that is
affordable and enjoys his job very much. good stuff.

Just musing...

Thanks for your time... what do you think?

That's almost a page long for christ sakes, just to ask a question about the most simple modifications.

haha sounds like he was putting together and/or making up numbers that he really doesn't know what they mean.

or... maybe you could click on the Comptech Dyno Sheets they have posted on their website...

http://www.comptechusa.com/images/dy...sr_ice_box.pdf

That's a GSR with Comptech I/H/E.

But he has special cams at 0,0 BTDC, and LFO on his NKOTB.

Hahaha, I thought you all would like that one!
One thing a friend of mine pointed out that I thought was funny about this post:
If he knows all of this bullshit about his cam overlap and his bored out compression to .45mm and dead set 0,0 with 20mm IAB blah blah blah....(which by the way I've never heard of the terminology he uses before), wouldn't you think that he would at least know how much an I/H/E would give him? This guy sounds like such a tool, hahaha
