I still wonder why you always have to try to start crap with me.

My del sol ran a 13.5 before I turned up my boost from 5psi to 10psi. I have also added a blow off valve, intercooler, forged pistons, total seal rings, a BBK fuel pump, venom injectors, an aem fuel rail, B&M fuel flow modifier, greddy 2mm head gasket, stage II clutch, and an apexi VAFC...

I'm thinking all of this might shave near a second off my 1/4 time. I haven't taken it to the track yet. I'm waiting for the rings to seat. Don't want to blow anything up after putting all that work in to it.

You will be the first to know once I get a slip from the track.

Oh, and I'll make sure to take a video of me walking all over my buddies SVT cobra....

it looks to me you are alreqady blowing it off:

race a tiburon, (this thread)

race a 5.0 stang (http://www.hondastyle.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=7518)

isn't that abuse ? as i know after rebuilding a motor you need to drive the car normally, not abuse nor pamper it. it looks to me you are already abusing it, so the rings should be seated right :paranoid:

actually if you read my posts correctly you would notice that I wasn't pushing my engine even close to it's fullest potential.

In the 5.0 thread, boosting 6psi, not 10 as the motor was intended for...

Tyburon thread, I said I didn't even have to floor it.

Also when racing that stang never once did I redline my car, actually I didn't even take it past 5500rpm. I was too far ahead of him to have to take it up any higher.

from what i have gathered from other honda weenies in person is that you're not gonna get more than 240hp n/a from any built honda engine. and 6 psi of turbo won't do much. superchargers for your cars only add 40-60 hp. 6-10 isnt a big jump at all.
you have put wayyy too much money into your car. with what you have, i doubt your car would see 12's. come on, thats a 17 second car stock. i barely have any mods and i havent been to the track cuz theres none around me. but from asking other people with my exact mods i can tell you that with some good tires im in the 12.9-13.3 range, easy.
in a street race i think you would be left behind. i have raced a del sol with turbo before and i gained on him and passed him steadily and easily. im not saying your car is slow. its slow for how much money was dumped into it. the more you do to ur car, the more unreliable it is. all i have to do is get long tube headers, underdrive pullies, mass air and i would hit high 12's consistently; all n/a. even cheaper... i could just get 4.56 gears and thats it. for right now, im leavin my car alone. i commute to school everyday. i speed as it is. i dont need a 10 second car with ME driving it. when my loan is almost payed off i need to decide if im going to put t76 turbo in my car or just get the brand new 2005 mustang 5.0 dohc, over 400hp n/a. decisions, decisions.

you took that the wrong way. too much money to only be a mid 13 second car. 13,000 is a lot of money. if i had 13k, my car would run 9's, be pretty reliable and a daily driver if i wanted.
all i would do is a T-56 transmission, $2700 for everything. an outlaw stage II TDC turbo kit, $7000, and forged internals $1600.
still less than what he spent and i would run 9's all day. i would have near 700rwhp.

Where'd you get your info? 240 is stock on the S2000 powerplant so I'd imagine with minor mods you'd beat the 240 you stated.
Well yeah 6psi won't do much. He's trying not to blow up his newly rebuilt motor.
40-60hp from a supercharger? Where are you coming up with this stuff? A JRSC can boost 10psi. Supposedly it can go above 10psi, but i doubt it. Vortech is usually about 6-10psi.

you have put wayyy too much money into your car. with what you have, i doubt your car would see 12's. come on, thats a 17 second car stock. i barely have any mods and i havent been to the track cuz theres none around me. but from asking other people with my exact mods i can tell you that with some good tires im in the 12.9-13.3 range, easy.
Why is it too much money? If he has it why not spend it? Its not a 17 second car stock. Its mid 15's stock(I believe he has the b16 engine).
You won't always get what everyone else gets. 60% driver, 40% car.

in a street race i think you would be left behind. i have raced a del sol with turbo before and i gained on him and passed him steadily and easily. im not saying your car is slow. its slow for how much money was dumped into it. the more you do to ur car, the more unreliable it is. all i have to do is get long tube headers, underdrive pullies, mass air and i would hit high 12's consistently; all n/a. even cheaper... i could just get 4.56 gears and thats it. for right now, im leavin my car alone. i commute to school everyday. i speed as it is. i dont need a 10 second car with ME driving it. when my loan is almost payed off i need to decide if im going to put t76 turbo in my car or just get the brand new 2005 mustang 5.0 dohc, over 400hp n/a. decisions, decisions.
Well you don't know that you'd beat him & you don't know that'd he get left behind in a race either.
If the rebuilds are done right & spend the money for quality parts, the car will last.
With larger displacement engines it takes less to increase horsepower.
I have a lead foot and the points on my license to prove it. I still want a faster car. Maybe I'll build up my Si or maybe I'llget another car. I tend to lose interest in things real quick. I have a feeling I'll have owned about 10 different by the time I'm 30.......

All you have to do is add an intake, exhaust to it and its over your 240hp claim.

Thats with the stock 6 psi pulley. You can get other pullies. JR sells a 8psi kit. That Eaton s/c is capable of 10psi boost stock. Anything above requires a rebuild on the s/c.

delsolvtec

09-26-2002, 11:21 AM

First of all 240hp from an N/A Honda is acheivable. There is a guy running a n/a 1.5 liter that is hitting mid ten second times on the track. That's a 1.5 liter naturally aspirated motor.

And as for me spending too much money, that's your opinion. I have spent a lot of money, but I'm happy with what I have and that is what matters.

FYI, my car is running a D16... And it's reliable as the day it rolled off the showroom floor considering all the internals have been beefed up along with a ton of other stuff to make sure it runs every day. I drive this car every day, to work and school and back again. It gets me downtown every weekend. That is where all the money comes in. To build a higher powered 4 cylinder car that is reliable as well as fast.

And as for my car being a 17 second car stock. I don't think so. 16's maybe, but 17's no way. Have you ever driven a turbo eclipse? Those are boosting around 10psi stock and put out about 200hp. So I would think with the amount of mods I have I am over that figure, especially considering I walked my friends GSX eclipse even before I rebuilt my motor.

Get a life man, and stop trying to trash people's cars.

10 psi and only 200hp. :rolleyes: that is pathetic. those eclipses run mid 15's stock. i seriously doubt your car is as fast as you say it is.
what have you beaten that is impressive? i beat up on camaros, m3s, wrxs, 3000gts, t/a's, various turbo jap boxes, LT1 vettes,89 turbo porsche, and a lot of cannibalistic mustang kills.

09-26-2002, 11:34 AM

Hey SVT, just out of curiousity...how much hp are you pushing right now (to the wheels)??????

delsolvtec

09-26-2002, 11:37 AM

I said I was pushing around 220hp before I rebuilt my motor and turned the boost up from 6-10psi. If you have had any experience with turbos 4psi makes a world of difference once boost builds up. It has become apparently obvious that you have no clue what you are talking about. I also said I walked, meaning smoke, meaning blew the doors off of (in muscleheads lamen's terms) pushing my car well below the 15 second envelope.

M3? Not even a challenge, my Mom drives one and it's not a quick car at all compared to the cars I have owned/do own.

10psi and 200hp is great for a stock 4cyl turbo car, find me another car with those figures? Didn't think so. Obviously mitsubishi couldn't build a 400hp (which those cars are highly capable of) car stock, they wouldn't be able to sell them.

Dude, start to think before you speak. You are sounding more and more ignorant with every post.

id say 285 to the wheels. 330-335 flywheel. thats how most 96-98 cobras dynoed with similar or exact mods.

you all do know changing the gear ratio feels equivalent to adding 100 hp and the results are almost the same.

A turbo alone will not make a car run four seconds faster, but a turbo with a ton of other mods and a carefully tuned motor can shave 4 seconds off a 1/4 mile easy. I didn't just bolt a turbo onto a stock car man. Again know what you are talking about before you put your foot in your mouth yet again.

0-60 times.. Hmmm, I'll have to check that out. I highly doubt a Rustang putting 285hp to the pavement is going to run a 4 second 0-60 time.

Porsche 911 Turbo
Hp: 420
0-60: 4.1 seconds

So I highly doubt your car that weighs a good amount more then that small two seater turbo six porsche with half the HP is running similar 0-60 times.

Dude, get a clue. Check your facts before trying to brag.

do you know what rear end gear ratios do?
do you know how a short shifter, lightened drive shaft and a lower ring and pinion ratio work together? my stock ratio was 3.27's and i went down to 4.10. the results are the equivalent of adding a 100hp. you dont know shit,

ha ha, changing gears is not going to be equivalent to adding a hundred horsepower, and even if it were that would still put you about 40hp under that porsche, who's is pushing all wheel drive with a close ratio six speed transmission. Once again you are wrong buddy.

I have said before I have experience with muscle cars too. I have a 65 GTO 389 tripower with a 4.10 rearend, rock crusher 4spd with a centerforce clutch and I know for sure I could walk your mustang with that and it's 0-60 time is no way in the 4 second range.

Gearing can play a large part in acceleration, but by no means is it equal to adding a hundred horsepower. I think you need to watch a few more episodes of gearhead garage or shadetree mechanic before you speak anymore.

I never said you could beat a Porsche, you did. You said you run 4 seconds 0-60, well so does a Porsche, that was my point. Once again read the posts before you get all bent out of shape and go ranting and raving. I am anything but stupid my friend. At least I speak the truth about my car and I don't spit out guests at figures on which I know nothing about. Saying your car would run 12's because someone else with similar mods does is BS. There are many factors that determine a timeslip. Driver, how tuned the car is etc...

Once again I ask that you get a life and stop bragging about your car when obviously you do not even know it's exact performance potential.

You said your car hits 0-60 "well into the 4 second range", well you are wrong considering that 11 second Porsche hits 0-60 in 4.1 seconds exactly and you said you couldn't beat it by any means.

that car is the total opposite of mine. do you know that is not very easy to get 0-60 in sub 4's. its called traction. have you heard of ferrari? i could smoke a few off the line, but guess what? they will finish a full second + faster in the 1/4 than i would.
4. 0-60 doesnt win the race, the twin turbo, light weight, rear engine does.

Calm down there sparky, you are starting to allow steam to escape through your nose. It's a message board and they are cars. Relax.

Is it because the guys on the mustang boards will laugh at your claim of gears being equal to 100hp gain? I think so. You may know about mustangs, but you obviously know nothing about the potential of other cars. So go somewhere that you can talk mustangs all day. Good day and good riddance.

lick a fat one delsol. you and your fairy grasshopper mobile need to get a life. mustangs, camaro's, corvettes and trans ams all can do 0-60 in mid to high 4's with rear end gears. totally besides the point... and to tell you the truth, i dont even know what the point is anymore. and i dont care.

you know...I think I saw somewhere earlier where you told delsol to get a life....doesn't seem like you have too much of one if you're spending your time talking shit on a Honda forum...

Thank you for finally admitting that. Now since there is no point you will have no problem going away.

Hmm... Wildy entertaining conversation yet again.

The 96 Cobras are cheap. You can easily get one for $13k.

That all depends on the area of course.

Changing the ring & pinions does do alot. I don't know whether its like adding 100hp though. My friend is having his tranny race prepped & his rear end swapped to a 4.56 from a 3.59. The only bad part about swapping the rear end is your gas mileage goes down the crapper. He's gonna be lucky to hit 10 MPG.

You guys need to meet up & race. Hell I'd show up to witness it. Setup a time I'll bring the digicam...........:yes:
