compuvision02 Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 ...Dan and I get tuned later today, via Crome. We are leaving around 9:00am to arrive around 11:00am for our time slot with J-K-Tuning at McNews Automotive. I'm hoping for 180-190whp, not really sure what my setup is capable of though. I am going to get John to set launch control at 4,700 RPM and I am guessing redline at 9,000 RPM. Anyways, should be a fairly long day, I hope to be back by 6:00pm. I wish I had access to a video camera, but I don't, so only pictures will be taken. Wish us luck! I'll post the numbers and pictures as soon as possible. Off to bed for a few hours of sleep before a lot of driving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
90IntegraC1 Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 I'm bringing my camera too, which has 30 minutes of video available....i should bring ear plugs, your car is gonna be f*cking loud in there lol. Can't wait, hopefully everything will be fixed (idle, running rich, no vtec, etc...) New oil pan gasket installed last night b/c "no oil leaks aloud on dyno" Update later today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris(pa) Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 I just talked to Dan He didn't tune his car Something about he only made 1/2 pull to 5k and made 103whp Then they took his car off the dyno and found metal shaving in the vtec solenoid Rob gained like 8hp and 7trq I think He fill in the details later I'm sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mycarsux Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Poor Danny. The metal shaving is probably from when the head was machined. That's the only explanation I can think of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben. Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Wonder if that has anything to do with it being so fracked up, as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
90IntegraC1 Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 The idle is fixed. Doesn't run rich anymore....at least i can't smell it. aaaaaaaaand, vtec works now, but not until 5950 rpms. My exhaust is too restrictive for a vtec head. Since airflow is required, and I am hindering that dramatically, vtec is weak as hell. I need a header/exhaust asap, then go back up for a tune. He can also adjust the timing on the cam gears on the stock camshafts and make a little power, but my valve cover needs to be cut. As of right now I made 103 whp and 77 tq at 5000 rpms.....bwahahaha slow...but obviously it needs a couple things to run to it's full potential. I have vids and pics i'll upload in a little bit.

mycarsux Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Hahaha. You're gonna have the biggest gains for just exhaust. RSR FTW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben. Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 I remember when I first swapped my b18c5 into the old '92 cx i had. I'd kept the original tiny ass exhaust with the catalytic convertor and a weld on the guy before me had on the car..it'd run fine up to vtec..where it would bog dramatically.. Took off the exhaust, power was explosive. Felt great, everything operated EXTREMELY well, even with a mere DC Header. Put on tanabe medallion catback exhaust, and silenced it a smidge, still ran good as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
90IntegraC1 Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Actually Harry, I'm getting a catless header-back straight pipe for the time being. RS*R isn't wide enough in diameter to run boost with, so my car will sound like Rob's for the time being lollllzzzzz, awesome. Still want that AN-R header, but it's wayy pricey ($530 shipped) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
compuvision02 Posted May 12, 2007 Author Share Posted May 12, 2007 I went 170fwhp amd 121fwtq, but my tuner says that this dyno is off, the numbers are too low. They took a car to this dyno and tuned it, it went about 180whp, then brought it to a different dyno that same day and it went 200whp, unchanged. I am guessing I am more along the lines of 190whp. This LS-VTEC CRX went 180whp at this dyno and went 12.7 at the track; the son went 190whp in his LS-VTEC EM1 and went 13.0. Both those numbers should be much higher for their slips.

90IntegraC1 Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Yeah, John (tuner) said the dyno we were using shows low numbers....just confirming that for Rob.....

TS John Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 It's gonna be sweet when you get your header and exhaust on there and take it to get retuned and suddenly gain some mad hps, yo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
