Default Speed-Theory Built EM1 Street Car

Wrapping up on a recent project, still waiting for a few last minute parts, but for the most part the car is complete.

Customer requested not to get too specific, but a general rundown...

Sleeved/Fully Built B20/VTEC
Built B16 Head w/ CTR Cams
AFI Stage 2GT Kit, Double-Backdoor, Custom Endtanks
Thermal 3" Exhaust, In-House 3" Testpipe
RC 1000cc, Aeromotive FPR, Walbro 255lph HP
Hondata S300, AEM Boost Solenoid, Boost By Gear
AEM Gauge Setup
DSS 2.9 Axles, Competition Clutch 1420 Kit/12lb Flywheel

The goal with the car was a purpose-built, reliable, street car with great displacement and a properly matched turbo for the application. No crazy HP-goals, just something that will be awesome to drive daily/weekends and run mid-10's if need be . Spool should be killer, can't wait for a ride.

The car will be tuned at Evans-Tuning, numbers/media when it's all squared away.

I'm sure the owner of the car will chime in shortly

Final Results


Video



505whp/348tq on 93 Octane @ 20psi
560whp/448tq on C16 @ 25psi falling to 23psi

Thanks for the kind words guys

James, you're more than welcome, it's been a pleasure getting this project together and working with you.

I'm really happy with the finished product, it's nice to have such a good balance between function and form.

You should really consider putting in the skunk2 stage 1 tuner series cams, they pick up 20-30whp over the itr/ctr cams from what i have seen on several cars. Stock idle/drivability and not hard on the valvetrain. Just did a similar set-up and made 530whp at 20psi on pump gas:

Car looks good Joel!

Power Schmower.. I'm curious of the response and acceleration rate of the car with this setup. There are plenty of people who have 350whp, that can knock the bejeezus out of someone making over 100whp more.
