Love the teg's but wanted it to stay a daily driver i have got the 2.0l eagle kit adjustable cam gears street legal dc sports header itr exhaust new crank, trans lsd. Problem is i am still getting some pinging i am not gonna turbo it so i dont wanna get crazy injector just ones that will push my street set up good. any input would be greatly appreciated.

 

I would throw in some 330's and get them tuned and call it good. Whats the comp. ratio of the pistons. Could it be that cheap california gas Yeah you shouldn't need more than 330's. Your sure you have brand new ignition components? Cap, rotor, plugs and wires? Good luck and I bet the car is fun as hell with the stroker kit.

 

believe me the crappy gas is one of the first things i went to octane booster didnt help even tried colder plugs running 10 1/2 to 1 compression and i need to get a hondata and get it tuned but i really feel like i should get injectors first thanks for the heads up. cap rotor plugs and wires all new. i have to say so far the stroker kit is amazing it really fills the powerband you dont have the crazy surge of a turbo but you have really full power all the way through. if i was going buck wild i could put a turbo on it because everything was built right and re-enforced but then it stops becoming a track car.

 

You definitely need to get it tuned ASAP. I would opt for injectors larger than 330 though. Personally I would look into some 440's. You never want your injectors to be big enough, you want them to be just a little too big. Having the extra margin of error can pay off in the end.

 

hang on here. what else is done to the motor? also, talk to who is doing the tuning. do you have a realitic HP estimate? if so make your choice based on what your tuner wants to use and the HP estimate. we really don't know what's in your engine. if it's all stock with just a 2.0L kit the stockers should work fine. i have a feeling that you have done more, but, let us know. the cams, compression and manifold are something you didn't mention in your first post.

 

yeah have had more done hp estimate is 200. Went with rc injectors talked direct to them they said saturated 315 are good for up too 215hp. got adjustable cams new crank shaft aem intake which doesnt do much i think that is it for actual engine mods. getting hondata s300 monday. i will see how these 315's work but i am thinking i will be fine west tech perfomance group is doing the tune. he just did a turbo motor with the 315's saturated and it was more then enough. we will have to see. tuner recomended the 315's hard part was calling everyone to get info. i will repost dyno's and stuff once it gets down. if i end up needed 440's i will repost how retarded i am .

 

I doubt we will be hearing about how retarded you are. I bet you made a good choice. Either way let us know how it turns out. Good Luck.

 

yeah i hope so everything is set injectors arrived at tuners today hondata soon to follow. the only thing that would mess me up now is if my mechanic did something wrong. only time will tell i will post pics and updates as soon as i get em hopefully thursday.

 

well turns out when i told my mechanic to keep it street legal he chose crowers cams that were meant for a turbo'd teg because he was told it would be ok. problem is now that no matter what my tuner did he couldnt squeeze more then 149 hp and the dyno showed a wierd peaked progression rather then a 45 degree line as rpm went up it peaked at 3500 then at 6000. it gets wierder though at about 6500 the power platued when a teg should be making more. the cams have more lift and stock duration. i can only hope if i swap those out it will fix the problem. this will be more money but i am hoping i can call it a day and close the book on this project. tell me what you guys think.

 

oh wow, the turbo cams are small and decrease overlap. bad stuff for NA. the crower 63401-2 cam will pass emissions and is more along the lines of what you're looking for. as far as injectors, even at 200whp 315ccs are fine. what pressure is that 315 at anyway? stockers are 240cc at 43psi or there about. at 60psi they are roughly 280cc. those 315s if they are rated at 43 psi are more injector than you will need. in other words your tuner will have no problems. you sure do not need to go larger. don't even think about 400+ anything in ccs.

 

yeah I know my injectors are cool I just hope new cams will fix the wierdness those cams are vtec my car is non vtec I will keep u guys posted
