^wow, my stock B20z with Crower 403's and a smaller exhaust makes a lot more power than that

 

Is that tuned ? Stock cat is holding you back btw.

 

not as much as the low compression and stock b16 cams. id say a switch to gsr cams will yeild better gains that getting rid of the cat. honestly the numbers arent far from what i figured they would be. dont believe everything you read on the internet about how everyone makes retarded power

 

yup a big lol at the 250 stock k series and trap under 110 on the track and 190-200 hp stock"bolt ons" gsr

 

That's got to be a low reading dyno. I don't know how everyone overlooked 113tq? Hit the track and see what kinda numbers it puts down. Those don't lie.

 

how ironic. . . i knew a guy that had a gsr and said his car dynod at 190whp and beat my stock single cam by only one car lenght (both civic eg) then he switched up to a k20a and said he dynod at 250.

moral is (to OP); dont worry about your dyno power, as long as you are tuned and your car is running fine all the way up the rpms

 

wtf those are rather horrible numbers...
at least you know where your at & can only go up from here.



b20 8.8 or 9.7cr should be at +125tq.
Maybe the rings are starting to go and your loosing some compression.
GSR cams would be nice upgrade considering they are only $30-50.

 

Those are B16 numbers. Something is up somewhere.
The GSR cams would be an upgrade but I think there are other problems that need attention first.

 

waiting for someone to say:

"....pfff...don't worry about the dyno bro # take her to the track to see what she traps!



when you've done 90% of what you can to a motor based on your budget and power goals, then traps are more important than dyno#. But before you even compare traps, make sure she's not running hurt.

 

^^^ LOL I kinda said that... but I know those numbers suck.

 

thanks for your input everyone. i did neglect to mention there was white smoke coming outta the exhaust during the session.. so the rings are starting to go..

 

Well I guess that settles that one. Time to start buying parts for the rebuild
