why does no one talk about rev range?
what about bottom end? what about compression?
that will dictate the design of everything else.
im sure the torque of a stock b18c will only be beaten by a relatively small amount no matter what you do, if static compression is kept the same and pump fuel is used.
if the same compression ratio is used, you are only going to get more power from more revs. how many revs do stock bottom end guys like to go? that would be the first question.
pick cams that match the rev range you use. im not sure about alot of the cams you guys are talking about, but are you able to stand a slightly rougher idle, and go for cams with a larger primary and secondary cam profile like jun like to do, if you run a higher compression bottom end, you can get away with it on pump fuel with bigger low cam.
after you pick rev range you can decide on length and diameter of your exhaust runners and the type of merge they use 4-2-1 or 4-1 im unsure of the benifits of each of these compared to eachother.
rpm range dictates intake manifold runner length and area, and also plenum volume.
the most effective way to get the power you want is to run a setup with all the parts designed to work together, to match the size and potental of your bottom end.
it sounds like todas solution is like this. although this may seem expensive, it is almost a guaranteed result, depending on how your bottom end health is.
im sure there are other companys out there that provide complete solutions, but make sure they are proven.
buying a complete solution will help you avoid trying swapping out parts blindly trying to make power. which costs more in the end.
also toda au, the guy barely said a brand or type for any of the things he listed next to the prices, how can you say that any of that wont work purely based on its price?
intake pipe and computer is the only thing he has listed. you say the intake pipe will be an instant defect? what computer do you plan to use? hondata s100? how many other options are legal?
how can you say cutting out excess gasket thats in the airflows path is a big step backwards?
ok i have no idea what i have writen, but it took a long time..
