I'm gettin' my motor back from the engine builder soon and this is what she'll have..

01 R pistons
01 R camshafts
01 R valvesprings
GSR machined head (not P&Ped)
GSR balanced rods
All new bearings, hardware and seals (obviously)
Lightened flywheel to 12lbs
Exedy Organic single plate
DC JDM 4-1
Iceman intake
Machined and balanced crank

I also replaced all coolant hoses, belts, oil pump, water pump, fuel filter and radiator.

what do you guys think? Will I put out at least 175 whp?

BTW- Len at Baranco is the SHIZNIT!!!

 

So this is a complete gsr motor? ls vtec? I say your goal is attainable. Just need to get the most you can out of the cams. DO you have an afc to tune with?

btw the 01 R cams are supposed to be more aggresive than the pre 01

 

I'd say 175 is do able w/ a vafc or hondata. Definatly tune though.

If yourlooking for a vafc, make me an offer I might be interested.

 

I wasn't thinking about tuning or gettin a vafc cuz I'm in grad school (med student) and I don't have the time to get it dynoed (nor the money after the rebuild) and I'm not too knowledgable on how to use a vafc properly.......is it crucial???

 

I wouldn't do all that with dynoing or tuning. But thats just me.
