i need low end power really bad have none at all this is wat i have done (asap)

1. completely rebuilt now has 3500 miles on it
2. arp head studs
3. type r style pistons (hastenings)
4. port job
5. valve job
6. mild cams
7. bored .20 over
8. reconditioned rods
9. intake, header back exhaust and street tune
10. 10.5.1 compression

 

you have what you have... cannot expect a B16 to do much on the low end


I did a straight B20 and am happier than when I had a B16 Vtec


Right off 2500 RPM she starts pulling
Have you considered weight reduction? Will stop, accelerate and driver better that way. Plus less stress on running gear as well.

 

b16 and low end power should never be in the same sentence. the only way to get any kind of numbers is to boost... nothing in the NA section will gain you much besides boring.

DAMN!! that things bored the F out!! haha

 

a B16's low end tourqe is just like a D series. only the you feel the difference is when you get to higher rpms and VTEC kicks in.

get a LS or GSR if you want low end torque, there is no replacement for displacement

or he could always supercharge

 

thanks for the response that helped alot now i know i have to boost or supercharge but thats where im stuck what would be better

 

Better tuning can shift the powerband, but not much, its still a 1.595 liter motor lol. Superchargers suck ***** on B16s. Look into a little *** turbo. gt25, t3, or disco potato as the max. little turbos on B16= sweet ****.

 

good looks man yea i only got a street tune i need a wide band to get a better tune we cant tell if its runnin rich or leqn right now so now i just gotta get my intake manifold throttle body fuel rail injectors and find a turbo kit and she should be ballzy

 

well you can always get a stroker kit. Because for the low end power you want ur gunna need more torque, which the b16 isnt able to deliver. With the short stroke that it has. "theres no replacement for displacement" sounds like it applies to you. well good luck hope u get somthing that will work out.

 

you ever thought about getting a b20 block and mating it with your b16 vtec head??? that should be ALL the low and high end power you need! also recommend getting gsr axles for that.

 

yea i never thought about a stroker kit go idea ill have to look at them

 

there was an article on a k24/k20 integra that the guy who owned it said there was power at any rpm in any gear. which i also heard theres some tracks that are banning k20 civics anyone heard this also?
