boring TB will only help if it's causing a restriction to begin with. I've heard of a few cars that have had their TB bored and even lost power because the air flow was too slow.
much the same idea...
The igition timing on my prelude just recently has been advanced slightly (not sure how much)
There was definately a noticable increase in power down low
mattsama, yeah it happens in all gears, it's related to rev's, the higher rev's the higher pitch the whine.
hurstyboy, the guy who worked on it lives next door...
hey people,
the Prelude has recently had it's 100,000k service so had a new timing belt fitted.
The guy who did it is a honda specialist, and he said he "tuned it up a little"

best advice, i've heard about things like this going to court for the argument, "it's unethical to be manifacturing something that will work until just after the warrenty has run out"

depends on the CR the car runs std...if ti's reasonably low then bumping it up will be fine....but if it's already quite hi, then it's prob more volitile
pete's 1:20.xx definately could have been improved on.
1. first time out
2. he had full interior (not like the other jazz drivers there :P)
3. had a tow bar!!
4. had me sitting in the passengers...
remember out-right power isn't everything
you'd get a shit load more mid range torque with a supercharger, the good thing is (or bad depending on how you look at it) that since the supercharger...
the F20C is going to be much more expensive than the H22A....but then pricing in the muckin around to mate a g'box to the H22A.
if the only box is the F20C 6sp...
In the near future i'll be building up a Westfield kit car.....BUT just to make my life difficult i've decided not to go down the normal path with a toyota 4AGE :)
Building an engine to handle Nitrous is the same as building an engine to handle forced induction.
So in theory, if there are bolt on turbo kit's for jazz's, then there's no reason why you couldn't...
