is it safe to bump the compression up to 11.5 and stage 2 crower cam???would a Vafc be alright to run??? need help

 

how are you planning on bumping up compression?

 

I would think so. Seeing as how thats only 1/2 point higher than type S. I would check the valve/piston clearance to be safe though. If you use a VAFC I would take it to someone who knows what there doing.(hondata recommended)

Edit: Running more compression with those cams is a GOOD thing. More compression = more Hp

 

Piston to valve clearance is not an issue as long as you dont advance/retard your timing drastically.

A VAFC will tune it just fine, run 93 octain gas and you'll be of.

BTW: Be prepared for the shock of your life once you open it up for the first time

 

wat kinda power output would i be expecting to put out once its all done???....and would the car detonate with the hight compression???

 

You should be able to see 200+ whp easily. If its tuned RIGHT then there should be no problem with detonation. Def. gonna want to use 93 octane

 

cool cant wait to take it out

 

200 - 210 whp I'd say. We ran 200 with the stock JDM pistons and 0.020 milled head and are moving up to the Type-S pisonts now.

 

im getting the same set-up in my 97lude, but im also getting a mildP&P...Dropping in skunk2 high compression valves as well... should i shell out the extra cash and get a multi-angle valve job?really worth it?

 

If your refering to a 5 angle valve job, yes its worth it.

 

my car just dyno'd 203whp and 158tq...was at 183whp before i added the DTR side exit race header...it took a while on the dyno, but man 20whp from just a header, I'm not complaining at all. My motor is stock bottom end, w/ very mild p&p head and ferrera valvetrain, 70mm STR tb, aem intake, tuned ecu, etc...
DTR headers rock!!! I'll have pics later this weekend of the setup and chart...

 

Holy mother og Gawd,, I need to do an H-22 swap,,,,
