hey guys, was just curious to know if you lose the vtec roar when you turbo it? This being the only turbo cars ive seen actually going werent vtec. (full house honda city :) and a Si Civic twincam). So i was curious. Just because i love the sound of my type r now was wondering if it sounded alot different.
Cheers guys
i'd rather my high pitch spoolin sound in a honda then the vtec

and in my op... the sound of vtec opening up sounds 10x better than turbo spool:thumbsup:
..but the POWER oh the POWER:D
Jesus Christ James, that thing sounded like it would have sucked in a gaping spectator if it wasnt for the fence!!!!
Im with Panda! if 300 odd KW isnt crazy enough, what are you getting now?!?!?
What did you have the redline set at for that last dyno run?!?
I was expecting a head gasket to blow or a coolant hose or something along those lines, or at its worst a rod to smash a hole in the block!
Neways cheers for the tough setup, the hairs on my neck are still standing up :D
if u want ur vtec sound and a turbo get a turbo whistler

I been looking to see what these were for ages. My mate has something like this but he said called it something lik screamer pipe:S lol not sure
hmmmm 14months ago 322kw...... 7 months ago at autosalon i had 400kw

now currently much more again !
thanks guys, its tru, the turbo ones sound mean. after hearing the video of BLKCRX's one on the dyno, im sure i can live with a huge powered vtec.. turbz is the way to go i reckon
well i knew about the 400kw obivously but what u looking at now? 500? .....600? lol
how much more do u think your dyno queen can handle?
James
dont know whats goin on with that tune, but from 160-200kph, your graph flattens out.
call it wheel spin on the dyno ;-) should have seen the video's of smoke coming off the tires
eheheh
didnt know you can have vtec n turbo sound running together
always thought one will eliminate the other
POST IT UP THEN :)Quote:
