I know people have had good experience with them, but not me. I know a socal engine builder who had the same problem on the dyno. Same result, the motor was junk. I don't know what engine/stroke you are running. I was running an H23, so the piston speed is high due to the longer stroke. Be careful whatever you decide. Higher rpm is also rougher on the syncros in the tranny.

Well then that's a completely different situation, now isn't it? Then again if you don't have the proper compresser/turbine combo then you still may not. Why exactly do you want to ride the high waves in a street car. Will you be racing it. BTW if you do build for massive power at the high waves keep it off the street(like the boys in the blue say "there's many ways to donate body parts, just don't get road rash on them").

My friend threw a rod doing that

 

my hatch has a stock b16 botom end with crower springs, retainers and skunk cams with individual throttle bodies. my motor make's more power at 9.5k - 10k than any where else in the power band. and i'v been reving it that high for the last 8 months no problum.(hope fully i didn't just jinx my self).btw my v-tec dosn't even come on untill 7k.

 

Didn't he say stock COMPONENTS.

 

i want to rev high cause i have a honda motor....thats what it does.
im not trying to make it into a low end torque monster which so many people TRY to do
dont you worry about my turbo set up. I know what im doing and ill make power to 9k and i could probably make power slightly beyond that but i dont want to go to crazy now. i will be racing it*duh*. preach somewhere else about street racing. do you know who i am or what i do or my feelings on it....no..
anyways..
thanks for the input people.

 

i didnt read any of this post, because its late and im lazy, but all i have to say is revving to 9k is fun, ok im done

 

you suck at driving

 

Thats right
