My friend has a 95 DOHC SI del sol and he says the best stock time for it is a 15.1.. I still dont believe it.. can someone clearify this for me?

 

I highly doubt anyone would hit a 15.1 in a STOCK Del Sol. They are supposed to hit a 15.7 so I'm guessing from there to mid 15's with the stock DOHC VTEC(B16A2) motor.

 

Can you please clarify what your friend has ??? the DOHC is a Vtec model, and the Del Sol Si is a Sohc vtec. Or does he have an SI with a DOHC swap in it ???

Anyways, the DOHC Vtec Del Sol can be mid to low 15's with a few bolt ons...
I had an intake filter, axleback exhaust, and AEM power pullies for pwr steering and alternator and I got a 15.6 on street tires, and a 15.3 with slicks....

Take care,

some del sols were made with b 16a in them

 

I know.... I have one that came stock with a b16a2.

What I was saying is that 94GsRacer said that a friend of his had a DOHC SI Del Sol, the SI model was a Sohc vtec....

 

94GSRacer said a Del Sol DOHC Si, so I would assume he knows what model it is which implies that the engine isnt stock.which also means the car isnt stock. I think a 15.1 on a Si sol is a way too outta the ordinary to be believable and 15.1 on a "stock" b16a2 is also a lil too fast to be stock IMO.

Yea sorry about the confusin about that. Its a stock DOHC vtec motor.

 

my friends del sol with b16a3 w/ i/e/intake manifold his best time was 15.5 ...i highly doubt a stock sol will hit 15.1

 

my friend with his del sol b16 ran pretty slow. but im guessing its the track. also to me b16 feel kinda weak. i rather go with a 1.8

 

[magazine racing alert]....well, just so you know, Motorweek ran a 15.1 and a very low 0-60 in a stock del Sol VTEC. So that's where you get the 15.1 number. Most other mags got mid 15's......[/magazine racing alert]

I've heard of 15 dead in a del Sol S (lightest of all models) with a USDM B16A2 in it by a guy in Dallas. If you do a power to weight ration calculation, with my whp (145) and (presumed) weight (2450 plus 175 for driver) you come out with just about bang on 15.000.....

my boy did 15.9 in a bone stock del sol with the sohc vtec motor..not even an intake.
