Just thought I would show the H-T community another lsvtec is coming to life. its gonna be daily driven to work and school. set up is as follows
GSR head
LS bottom
GSR tranny
micropolished ls crank
ls rods w/ arp rod bolts
ctr os .25 pistons
stock gsr valvetrane for now
custom header 2.5"(secret)

I will be de-tunning it via uberdata because the comp. ratio is too high for my standards of daily driving.

Try not to flame but just give me educated opinions, preferably if you have actually BUILT your own motor. thanks guys...oh yea heres some pics cuz everybody loves those

 

wheres the header?

Apparently it's a secret.

 

ha ha ha

lol

this is what everyone thinks but you know he will let us know soon enough

good combo

good luck

 

well running ctr pistons you can probably just retard your timing a little to keep it from knocking ... :D

 

haha if you wanna see it ill take a pic of a box full of piping cuz its being made in a couple days.

thanks bro im planning to retard it cuz if not id be retarded myself

 

what are you using for a ecu? you should look into hondata or kenji chip

 

Uberdata chipped ecu with lsvtec prog made on dyno and street.

haha its funny cuz its true.

 

more pics of the car

 

i bet your setup blows up faster than your old one
JK good luck
what are you going to do for a break in for the engine?


ps. your headers will be like APC brand compared to mine

car is an eye sore no more pics please lol

 

more pics maybe later. any good info from anyone on the motor tho?

 

u could trade the pistons for jdm itr pistons or itr pistons p73 or p73a00

 

I could have done that but i already have the pistons fit to the rods and all. the parts i have are being used.

Anyone that has a similar setup post your thoughts about tuning.

 

I know there are experienced people out there i want your opinions!

 

good luck with fuel i am running the same set up knock knock knock ping ping ping
for tuning i just started using hondata
fuel aromotive fpr
rc 310's
and a walbro 255 pump
and get some cold spark plugs
want to buy some cams check sig

 

I have a apexi vafc, going uberdata for timing managment and vtec Xover and I have a walbroh 255lph in tank pump and 450cc dsm's w/ resistor box obviously. thats my fuel managment and where i live i have option of either 93 octane or 100. both very convenient to get.

 

And my compression ratio im shooting for is gonna be around 12.1:1

 

why such big injectors and such a big fuel pump 12:1:1 is very easy on a gsr combustion chamber is already welded unlike a stock b16

 

because i want to. i just dont flow at full capacity

 

Yea good luch on tunning...I have almost the same setup except my head is milled 30 thousands.. I tend to ping real bad mid range like 3-4K rpm,I would like to get some colder plugs,i hope it helps..I was told i was about 12.7-1 CR could be wrong.

 

if u cheap the ctr u will need excellent pretty much error free tuning like hondata or uberdata u really won't be abl2 drive your car without tuning it not really be able 2 enjoy the power what r your hp goals do u already have the 450 u could used prelude obd 2 290cc or dsm 390

 

Yea I will be tuning it with someone who has tuned all sorts of setups including this one before. I have the 450's already cuz i was boosted before so i kept them around. My goals were right around 180whp and 130wtq until I get money to put into valvetrain. My comp ratio should be around 12.5:1 + but I will be retarding the timing to lower it a little.

What octane do you run and what kind of tuning are you dealing with?

 

i run 93 i run 94-100 if i am going 2 the track if u use such big injectors u will need 2 have your fuel pressure adjusted so u don't run rich and bog down because they r so big
