Lets Talk d-series

Hi Danny!

Yeah,the plans for the b18c fell through due to lack of money but I'm hoping to do this nice increase in power to keep me happy!

I dont wanna boost,I love NA aye :)

I figured out how to calibrate the voltage on the TPS correctly and done it,now my car runs so well!

Here's the DIY I done on it,if only other's on here new what a difference having your TPS calibrated makes,it's not so easy to tell them..

Money is getting tight for everyone,time to get smart about the decisions we are making.

Money money money!

How's your car runnin'?

So the stage 2 cam,you need springs and retainers and a tune.But the stage 1 cam needs nothing.

I might just do that.

nar man go for stage 2 as the gains will be much better than 1.

when u get stage 1 ull feel like its wasnt worth the money for the gains u get.

I was thinking the same thing,it would be worth the extra aye.

I was up till 3am last contemplating the choice between a stock b18c2 or my d16y4 auto with I/H/E and stage 2 camshaft.

It's a great question! It had me up late :)

The thing is,yeah the b18c2 has more power,has vtec etc but I could imagine driving the y4 with a stage 2 cam would be fun.And at the end of the day,it's about fun,not about power.

I have 2 points on my licience,so I certainly dont need more power,but more fun,I can ALWAYS do!

I have been in a b18c2 also.

I've been reading up on the stage 1 and stage 2 camshafts.

Maybe you can run the stage 2 cam without touching the valve train?

The rest looks ok. its just a parts list though. comes down to tuning and how you drive the car when you talk about reliability.

yes those parts will give you boost, but theres no way you can tell reliability until you see the tune and the quality of the driver.

it could.
depends who it's made by.
my manifold is custom, made of steam pipe, and comes with a lifetime warranty.

i think if u got stage 2 or 3 u can get it to feel like or even a tiny incy little bit better than a B18

It just sounds like it would be funnerer than a stock B18C.

so its going to add a odd 30kw and .200cc on top
compare to the b18c to the d 16
just with cams

that will be amazing will do that to my d series if it is true

do you need a ecu to tune the stage 2 cams too breeza

and been auto would not be as fun as a manual
doing these mods to it

I love the auto and if I did put the B18C in,I would get an auto gearbox for it.

Bisi recommends to get a tune with the stage 2 cam,for my y4,greddy emanage is the best solution.

B18C with auto box? that would just defeat the purpose. I seriously dunoo how you can mod a honda performance wise automatic. Its just boring. Spending on cams for a auto D16 would be a waste of money, but each to their own i guessssssss
