Exactly. I think we see things the same way. I definitely don't recommend pushing limits to the person who wants reliability/longevity and doesn't care to race, break records .
It goes back to; you do what you please. At the time, this was done to show the "Max Power" for the set up. Which we were limited by hardware, software and time. I actually prefer to always run full E85 because of the convenience.
Little background, I've been one of the few (gotten into lots...
You can run full Ethanol but on certain applications, it's more optimal to run the blend. You are correct though you can be more aggressive with E85. That's only if your hardware can support it.
This goes for pretty much everything, some set ups can make lots of HP but if it's a stock motor you...
Raising the rev limiter affects much more, especially when it comes to DI. The turbo would be the least of my worries.
Even on stock turbo it will be a great upgrade and I'm sure it would give the top end most are seeking, but there are many ways to make power. It all comes down to what your...
No, the 4Piston cam maintains the stock DI pump lobe but changes the others. While the Hondata camshaft only changes the DI Pump lobe. Two different approaches to see great gains. This car is like a hybrid, I have the Hondata fuel system (injectors/hpfp/lines) paired with the TR2 cams. In my...
Correct the stock one the run shows cut off at 6800 (if I remember correctly), because when it was stock I didn't want to bounce off the limiter to complete the dyno run.
The stock turbo unfortunately gave out. They were going to hang it up, but last minute decided to just swap it and finish the race. Which is why in some videos circling you can see smoke coming from the exhaust but that could've been just from not being able to clean everything out since it was...
Hi all,
I saw someone shared the video already but I am starting this thread to show more about the 4Piston TR2 cams installed in the Ososik Type R. Currently the mods are; Custom Powermetric tune E50 blend, Hondata FlashPro, @4piston tr2 cams, PRL intercooler & P700, carless DP, @Hondata Fuel...
Well then, depending on your tires you'd love that low end torque...maybe not the rods but time will tell lol. These aren't L15 engines so that's a plus lol
Well there's something very important you brought up that most don't discuss and it's technically a different topic; LSPI. Oil plays a vital role in Low Speed Pre Ignition as well. Most people make a big mistake by also not upgrading their oil. Once you start modifying a car, many variables...
Sorry maybe I wasn’t clear, the tune the Civic had during this test was the Powermetric Stage .91 tune. The comparisons were with no additional tuning changes to keep all variables as controlled as possible.
This allows you to see a true back2back comparison, we don’t just look at peak power, we...
Before installing the turbo of choice (@PRL Motorsports P700), we decided to install a old FK8 stock turbo we had laying around to debunk any thoughts/theories and find out which OEM turbo is better. I'll add all the details later but check out the video, it shows all the results.
