Hey guys let me know if this sounds good/Bad or about right....

Setup - 1.6L DOHC ZC engine, Greddy Turbo Kit not intercooled at 5.5 pounds of boost, 89 Integra ECU, High Flow cat, DC enhaust, no internal work or anything like that

test 1

134.9 HP / 120.2 Tourque


Test 2

135.7 HP / 118.7 Tourque

Now I had the guy lay off at 6500 RPM and the Teg ECU goes up to 6,800, I could have probabaly hit 140hp. Does this sound ok? Whats a stock ZC HP to the wheels? Thanks for any help or other Dyno Test #'s,

 

my b16 hatch dynoed at 144 at the wheels with just intake exhaust and header...
but your setup is sooo sweet! i sold my hatch and i am doing a zc turbo setup! but i am going to build my motor to handle more boost tho but those seem bout right like i said i am just getting introduced with the zc motor..

 

JDMb16a I figured my HP #'s would be about the same as a B16 but alot more Tourque, what Tourqe #'s did you but down? Thanks

 

ahhh u killed me there 106 here ....

 

Is that just dynoing the car, or did you get any tuning done? For reference, there's a guy on the forced induction board he runs a sohc vtec turbo his sn is vtc_civic -keep in mind this is with hondata and tuning

6psi- 180whp
9.5psi- 214.4whp / 183.2tq
10.2psi- 217.7whp

Youre still putting out some nice numbers, not trying to be a jerk or anything, but I would guess it would be a little higher, especially if you got it tuned

 

Yep I didnt get it tuned, wish I could, those are really high numbers that guy was putting out!

 

hey cwbetb if you dont mind can i ask u a few question gimme a im at JDM4G i wanna ask how you are going to do the DSM side mount...i got a si i am doing zc turbo and i want people to think it is slow... thanks alot
mike

 

Why does everyone turbo the ZC motor? Is that a better choice than running a turbo on a D16a6?

I've never been a huge fan of the ZC, but what kind of numbers will the a6 put down turboed?

 

I put down 151hp/103tq at the wheels minorly modded b16a, N/A.

I don't see wasting time and money on a ZC, and then even a turbo for a trade off of 15 HP for 15 foot pounds more torque...

DOHC VTEC OWNZ JOO!

My dad put down 158 @ 6 LBS of boost or so ZC Turbo w/ T25 on it, IM me if you want Dyno charts.

 

That's funny, with only 200 cc's more my 1.8 puts down 182 HP and 132 ft/lb of torque at the wheels. No turbo or NOs
I did spend a lot more though

 

B series naturally aspirated. the best option. always. how many pro drag racers out there are running ZC turbo's? how many run ZC's? exactly.

 

i would go with a b16 if i had the money, but my parents dont buy me everything!

 

Funny thing. My parents haven't contributed one red cent besides $1200 that I paid back ASAP simply because my D motor blew after 2 weeks of purchase of my car, and I spent all my spare money on the downpayment. I did need a car to get to work!

Building a car out of your daddy's wallet... BIG

 

good attitude

 

Some people have a wife, a kid, and other cars to worry about also.

I chose to boost my ZC, just because I didnt want to spend that much money on a motor for my Civic. I have three other cars that I work on as well. So dont dog someone just because they dont worship a B16.

Matthew as far as I know the 89 Teg ECU rev line is 6,800, I have 2 friends with Gen 2 Integras and they also said its 6,800. If anyone can prove me wrong on this please do so.

I didnt post this so people can tell me how much they love there B16's. I wanted to know if my #'s sounds about right. Another guy said somone got 130hp from a stock ZC on the dyno. I call bullshit on that!

 

Well.... Do you just want to be like everyone else and turbo a damn B series?

Yes B series make more power then D at the same boost level.

Why?

-Bigger bore
-Bigger valves
-Higher Rev limit

Making power with a B series at least for those who like to BUILD their own stuff, is about as exciting as an old sock.

Turbo B series have been proven to make great HP at low boost level's. However, this has been proven about 10 bizzilion times. That's really exciting isn't it!!

Here's is why I plan to put down 400HP out of my ZC...

#1 IT'S DIFFERENT!!! I will get more satisfaction out of this then If I payed way less for a stinking B series turbo setup with the same out put.
#2 I won't have people coming up to me, and saying..."HEY!!! He's GOT VTEC!!!" every time I open the hood.
#3 I will have SO much more fun over the next year working at my goal's that only a small few have ever attained, then reaching something that EVERYONE has seen.

I do not speak for ANYONE else on this matter, but the huge sight of the same
"B series with a turbo kit" just makes me sick.

 

b16a i had in my car..it was quick...but i REALLY wasnt impressed...everybody asked if i had vtec...it got old fast...there is a shop in maryland...that is helping me out with building the zc to hold some boost...and i will have pride and saying that i have no vtec...and watch people faces light up!

 

Exactly

 

 

so your getting aprox 20hp from your turbo..... i will beat your zc turbo w/ my d15b1

 

i know this isnt the right place to say this...but who the **** cares who cars can beat whos...we enjoy our cars...if we built our cars the same then we would be cool i guess!

 

I bet he's running rich as hell with only 5.5psi.

Please specify the fuel in-richment method being used.

Intercooler + more boost + better tuning/hard part's = should be around 200

 

once again...
