SolLesHonda Posted February 2, 2006 Author Share Posted February 2, 2006 Wow. BBS, you know I wasn't downing your set up, I was just trying to get your opinion, from someone on here who actually has some good power on here. I didn't want to hear from someone who has a stock ass car with a bodykit, I wanted to hear from someone with engine build experience. Thanks though. I'm down for a HF meet, but fawk if I am going to Missouri. If I have to travel, so do you B16. Thanks for the comments guys, any suggestions as far as the set up goes ?

Humphries Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 my brother wants me to go h22 with a giant t4 turbo run 15 daily but i want to go all motor f22b2.. no one does that.. and im sure it will have a more sturdy feel to it being all motor. i might get another accord to go h22 with.. and that'll be the face of our company he is planning on establishing.

Damn that sucks, hey if that dont work out with the Hondata, even though they are really good, why dont you give Greddy Emanage or the HKS F-Con Pro a try? i know the F Con Pro is good and I've heard that the E manage is good also...Nvm i just looked for the HKS F-Con Pro for the Del Sol S and they dont make it... they only make metal head gaskets for the VTEC... thats bullcrap.... gotta keep my cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolLesHonda Posted February 3, 2006 Author Share Posted February 3, 2006 I don't have the S motor ... I have the Si motor, and no I'm not buying those pieces of garbage. AEM EMS, E-manage, any other hacks like VAFC < Hondata Hondata owns all !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackdelsol Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 +1. I'm getting an s200 with boost too. I want to lower my compression to at the very lowest 9.5:1 that is deffinitelly worth it. to have that much stronger of an engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolLesHonda Posted February 5, 2006 Author Share Posted February 5, 2006 Yeah. The sleeving was a little different than what most get. Instead of using all ductile-iron sleeves, I got them where it is ductile sleeves, but at the top, uses a layer of aluminum. The aluminum sits just a 1/4 of an inch lower in order for water to cool in there. The water will help in power because the combustion chamber will be up to 20 degrees cooler. It is better for street. Most all ductile iron sleeves cause over heating issues for street use. The block was tanked and honed as well, and is powdercoated. Completed with SRP pistons and Eagle Rods and ACL bearings. Going to be a great bottom end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackdelsol Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 deffinitelly. you had to replace more than just that though when you rebuilt it, didn't you? like bearings, oil pump, stuff like that? I'm still trying to figure out what all is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolLesHonda Posted February 6, 2006 Author Share Posted February 6, 2006 I used ACL bearings, and i don't honestly know about the oil pump. Great set up though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
