To keep things short and simple here it is. I do NOT understand this and want some feedback. Why is it that nobody thinks that this set up will yield me 180whp. Is it because i have a GSR and not an R??????? Here is the set up

2000 GSR

AEM ITR CAI, cam gears, u/d pulleys, DC JDM 4-1, test pipe, greddy SP exh, skunk2 intake manifold, 64mm TB, FPR, P28 ECU, AFC.......about to install USDM ITR cams, valve train, valves and pistons along with a Mugen head gasket.

Conclusion: SO basically, i have a GSR/TypeR with , 11:1:1 compression AND so i here the GSR head flows better then the TypeR. I have been told 175whp if i am LUCKY by a few reputable sources. I have seen dyno plots of GSR's running less extensive mods making 180whp with stock 10:0:1 compression. Why is mine any different???? Please anyone, tell me if i am missing something. I have forked out a lot of cheese and need to know why tuners are telling me this. Maybe i need to upgrade my AEM license plate frame to a Greddy frame or something. Thanks

 

why dont u just go dyno your car

 

i will as soon as i get the cams, pistons, and valve train installed.

 

i doubt the skuck mani, the larger TB will help you much, not with ITR cams.

Is it just me or is something strange going on here? I just posted, and my post disappeared, as well as the inital message was edited but there is not edit history.

Am i losing it?

 

Or just throw it away...

 

i dont think u know what ur talking about:
skunk2 mani is similiar in design to the ITr mani and ITR TB is larger than GSR by 2mm and im sure his is at least 64mm. this is a great combo with ITR cams.

i think u will see mid 180's with ur set up. just tune the hell out of it like u should with anything on a dyno

 

Definitely

 

Coming from someone that has already lost it I guess you'd have a pretty good idea.

 

180 whp is cake with that set up. With the Skunk Manifold and ITR cams alone that should get you close to 20 hp. Stock gsr put down anywhere from 148-158 to the wheel. Plus your other mods including pistons (which if they are JDM ITR will give you about 11:5:1 CR) You are definitly in the 180s. Your gonna need to tune though, nothing is plug n' play with that setup.

 

ehehehe....GSR/Type R....boy, you're really asking for a flaming!!

 

How dare you mention a GSR in the same sentance as a Type R, get the hot suit flames are coming! Just kidding

 

BadBoy: Wow. I've ****NEVER**** seen a stock OBD2r2 GS-R put down 148, let alone 158. Consider that ITRs put down 160-165 stock and I think your numbers are off a bit.

You should be able to see 180whp with that setup. I've done a VERY similar setup on an old tired motor with no valve upgrades (free power there) pull 175 to the wheels on my dyno. So a strong running, more modified motor should see that easily and then some. If you are interested in some dyno time, BTW, I am local and can assist you. Thanks.

 

**** John.. I didn't even see that.

IC: come to the dyno day to get a baseline for tuning. Jan 12th. See the "florida people" thread for more info

 

didnt know he was obd 2, but I have seen dynos of a 96 GSR that was putting down 152 stock, timing at 18 BTDC. And there was a dyno on here of a 2000 GSR converted to OBD1 making 150 or 151 WHP. I also saw on this board two ITRs that were putting down 165+ whp stock.

Dave - it's the first thing I look at under a post that interests me...

yes, but he listed a P28 ECU, which means hes probably converting to OBD1. Definate for that

Yep, I'll be OBDI soon too.. once FAST94GSR sells me that fuggen ecu! hehe Hopefully by the dyno day.. oh yeah John.. uhmm.. we'll want to clear out the room for my car.. the exhaust will be.... loud....... and pointed at the side wall..

 

Yeah, I'm not sure where you got those numbers either. I've seen some stock GSR's dyno at 135whp. I'd say most are around 140.

 

Awesome. Good thing you don't drive it on the street, my buddy has a turn down on his GSR that's painful. Which "side wall" will it be pointing to? I assume the side closest to the dyno...damn we got off subject on this real quick!

 

i am currently running an OBD-1 ECU. compliments of kenji

 

John: Actually.. it's the daily driver right now.. with the 450lb springs up front, 600lb in back and r-compounds. I figure if the exhaust is loud enough I wont hear the tires anymore And yeah, it'll be coming out the pass side in front of the rear tire. I might put a turndown on it for the day.. we'll see. Once I finish the buildup of the beaters motor, the teg wont be driven much again

 

ic: kenji is just a mullet head FREAK!

 

I'm suprised my boy hasn't posted yet..

He's got bolt ons, Toda Bs, toda camgears.. puttin down 182whp on his last dyno...

 

so you are the guy i told kenji about. i told him that someone on honda-tech was talking trash about him calling him a mullet head and ****. i thought it was dave at acura and kenji called up there questioning him or something
