Thanx for your help pissedoffsol.
But it's not the hp that's my priority. The driveability should be good as well. And I want a construction that is the best. A manifold has to be equal length so the gasflows won't interfere with each other. That's a fact. A log style is a wrong design, it's...
I don't want the log because it's not ideal. Besides most logs have the wastegate in just 1 or 2 runners. So there's no question about it for me, it has to be equal length.
Thanx Freemantile, I've read about the wideband. But I haven't found really what brand and model. What I have found is that you can read the current air/fuel ratio and that people recommend one, but can you also actually tune it? What can you exactly do with a wide band?
Thanx pissedoffsol, the point is that I live in the Netherlands. In other words: there doesn't exist a Honda tuner with a dyno. All the "tuning" shops over here are nothing more than garages who put stuff on, like exhaust and air filters. When they do install a turbo or SC, there's no tuning...
Im not going for maximum effort, my goal is 225 HP. It should stay reliable because it's daily driven..
Well maybe you could say I'm going for maximum effort for 225 HP. And I don't think I WILL need a www.full-race.com manifold to obtain that goal. The key is tuning, get that air/fuel ratio...
I have searched the internerd and I have done calculations based on books from Turbochargers by Hugh MacInnes and Maximum Boost by Corky Bell.
My car:
Honda CRX 1.6 VTEC stock B16A with V-AFC and DC Sports ceramic coated header.
My goal:
Daily driven car with 225 HP. Competing 5 days a year...
Jeff,
So you're saying that a SSautchrome is as good as yours except from the extra 2 strong brackets on yours?
So if I can get a cheap SSautochrome, weld a pair of strong brackets on then and brace my downpipe, I should do fine?
Or is yours also made of thicker/stronger material?
NotUrAverage_Si,
How long do you have the SSAutoschrome manifold? And have you supported your downpipe? Because I heard that could prevent it from cracking.
Does anyone have experience with a cast AND a tubular manifold? I have a B16 and I want to have some more HP. My car is daily driven and...
