don't go an open pod in your bay. You just suck the hot air into your engine. Does wonders for lowering performance.

You're better off with an intake the puts the filter outside of the bay, or...

that would be with tuning though. Couldn't imagine a 15% gain ATW without major tuning changes. especially NA.

dyno's can read low too. lets not forget that. They're only a tuning tool at best.

The real world results is what counts. 1/4 times and comparisons to other cars in the real world is the best...

you'll spend a bit more for the turbo gear i'm sure. I haven't looked at prices in a long time.




I think at 300K you'd be needing to replace OEM parts anyway. Turbo or not!

anyway, i'm sick of this B series vs D series crap. Its about having fun with what you've got.

Have any of you D guys priced a turbo setup for your car? I really like the EJ8 (??) Sedans and ...

They hate on people that want to be different because they're all sheep. hehe.

ADDITION: At the end of the day, most people will have a B series engine because it is a good platform. I can...

you won't get major problems if you do it correctly. Lots of big setups on OH that have been really reliable.

Don't forget theres a reason they put a k series in the DC5R. Its cause B's are...

nice constructive post chris. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I played around with my first car too, not to the extent that you did, but more to the level that these guys will/have gone with their d's. The...

at the end of the day, theres not much difference between the two that would concern the user. Maybe the servicing but the difference wouldn't be that much if you look after your D already.

Are...

Good question ben, but i think the people that do answer should specify whether they are after a performance car, or if they're just having fun with what they've got. Cause that one factor changes...

having fun doesn't mean being the fastest. :thumbsup:

lol, its still going through an auto box which will pull the power down quite considerably. If you were going turbo + cam + headwork + LSD or something along those lines i'd look at the bigger...

what shafts beez? OEM Rebuilt?

I think you can get a pair of stage 1 hasports for about 450. Install wouldn't be much more then what you paid. And they're brand new + upgraded.

is there many really big NA builds anyway?? (B or D series)

Yeah there are a few with stock blocks with a cam in the head but nothing major like port/polish, lumpy cam, new springs, pistons,...

beeze = NA, y4 Auto.

Will be interested to see how this cam goes in the engine with an auto box.

keep the stock compression. don't change it unless you wanna run lots of boost (ie 20+)

the only thing that will make your setup reliable is the tune. you can have the best parts in the world...

Custom manifold could be your weak link. maybe find a fabricated manifold from the states that has gaurentee's not to crack. etc

The rest looks ok. its just a parts list though. comes down to...

Just don't cream ya pants on my seats man! :o;):thumbsup::cool::honda::wave::p

I'll take him for a drive! :D:D :thumbsup:

Should this be in the FI section??

Beeza: It depends on how much power/RPM you are planning on running. If you're thinking of going custom then you should be having long conversations with...
