check it out....my mods are on my signature.
after some tuning on the dynojet, i only pulled out 150hp to the wheels. whats up with that? i was at least expecting 160. could my motor just be old? why would it be so weak?

TIA

 

Learn to spell "VTEC" correctly

Need more tuning

Maybe the "VTECH" wasnt working? Is the motor old or something? Maybe the rings are just a little worn....

 

i use vitek

 

with that setup i would expect a bit more than 160

 

vtek

 

who tuned it?

 

150 to the wheels is not bad that is average with those mods, not above average but not awful.But with the head milles your base cam timming might need to be tweaked, also your distributor timming should be bumped up, at least 19 degrees with stock b16 should help peak power, Jason

 

the reception was fading when V-TECH kicked in probably....

 

Where'd you get it tuned?

I think I did that one.

That one I think had the rings going bad. Also the rev limiter was at 8k, and the graph was still going up.

Timing was above stock, so that was not a problem. Tried several passes, car was stuck at 150 all day,

???????? whats a b16a5?

 

thats what comes on the V-TECH engines

 

i didnt know mispelling was that important... i think i was looking at my phone when i was making the profile. but anyways, i got it dynoed at ATOMIC PERFORMANCE (importbuilders). the motor is about 2 years old so im thinkin it could be the piston rings. but i say screw it, maybee im better off with a newer motor.

 

BTW thanks Jeff. i didnt notice your post. hey i never got the print-out, what was my max torque again??????

 

hey thats cool im in your neighbor city

 

any ideas what your IM temp was...i found that made a difference with mine...also was it humid out or cold that will make a difference as well.....150 is what my gsr with i/h/e made on a mustang dyno so its not that bad

 

What kind of dyno was it?

 

Hey jeff, Do you work at importbuilders? If yes, How can I get a hold of you, I need to get some cams tuned but everytime I call you guys, I get a machine. I have tried e-mailing you guys too but, no response back. Thanks!

 

lol...what happened to that wonderful service jeff promised ??? find out its impossible when your running on other peoples time schedules ??? machine shops ? vendors ??? not possible huh ?

 

What are your cam gears set at?

 

A quick way to help figure out the condition of your engine is to do a "leakdown test." This would aid you in figuring out if you engine is "tired" or not.

 

by .20 I assume you meant milled the head 0.020" (twenty thousandths) ... the CRX fuel pumps temd to lose flow ont he top end, yours may be a simple fuel starvation problem ... try ot at least put a gsr or better pump in there ... the mitsu turbo, RX7 t/t or supra also fits with some improvision.

so before blaming the motor check the simple things first liek fuel pump, etc... also which injectors stock b16a peak/hold or the newer 92+ saturated ? that will make a difference also.
