it just came to me today that the day i chipped my ECU and raised the rev limiter on my zc, the next day the motor was blown. i think the 2nd hit to 8000rpm killed it. it sucks because the motor makes good power up high and you want to keep revving it. id say its the best power for the money. too bad they burn oil and blow up. oh well, i got a real motor now.

it was suprisingly fast until i fried the motor and kept racing it. heres the numbers.
89 Si hatch
dohc zc with dc 4-2-1 header, exhaust and CAI
15.39@99
14.08@104 - with 55hp zex

 

so you blew it up on purpose???
wtf would you do that

 

not really. the motor came in the car when i bought it. i had a lot of money and another motor on the way so i just beat the hell out of it.

 

ya im droping a zc in a hatch right now im just gonna boost on it till i blow it up i mean i get them for like 150 bucks so its not a big deal but ya
they are hard reving engines
