E-mail me, I will sponsor you majorily on a IB SPec CNC ported head. See if we can't go from 187 WHp to 230. Just from the head.
IB spec stuff works, we will prove it AGAIN, on your car if you don't mind. Whats great about you doing the tests is that I have never met you, and I am not tuning your car. Everytime I do something personally, I am slammed with all kinds of things.
Oh and yeah, thats right...IB Spec CNC head, its out. Your in. Don;t wait too long to e-mail me pal. lol
haha.
Jeff
Email coming your way Jeff!
I definitely hear you on the fact that I'm testing your stuff while you're not directly involved- it gives you more credibility because you're not the one showing the dyno numbers. The only problem is that I have to drive 3 and a half hours to get to my dyno location. I don't have any hookups with people in Austin, and I don't trust any of them either.

your killing me man.! Short ram intake WITH a CAT?
Your killing me.
I am going to mail you 2 things, that I will start charging $300 for real soon, and it will take your power from 187 to 205 not touching the motor.
Don't hurt it yet man, we got dynoing to do.
I'm trying not to beat it up. I'm just chasing a few minor electrical issues right now- some of the wiring is loose. I have to run a short ram- I'm in Houston a lot, and Texas weather is just crazy. If you're thinking cold air, I'm thinking hydrolock. Real fast.

Go back to school, get your masters, then start making your own parts. I'm sure I'll be finshed with school by then, and then I can fab you some sweet aero pieces to complement your power. Then we'll race... You with your torque monster, me with my high rpm f1 setup
Sure, but I guarantee I'll stomp on your B16.
I don't think the MS is going to happen... I'll just have to start making stuff that works and prove to people that I know what I'm doing without having the MS stamp of approval.

Very nice. Time to go
Already did- and being able to maintain traction all through the one second that first gear takes is really nice too! Just gotta fix the alternator talking to the battery problem...

A known shop in Texas that runs my pistons is probably going to fly me out there next week to tune their racecar.
Want to re-tune your car there with the super intake and open header to make 200 + WHP on a dynojet?
I am sure they would be down for it. I wish I could bring all my parts on the plane, we could probably make 220 WHP with stock B16A cams and that would be sick.
Jeff
Hit me back on the email! I'll definitely be down for that if I can make it out to the shop.

I couldn't believe that numbers he was pulling that night, and the numbers just kept going up. Phillip predicted something like 180hp/150lb it was way cool to see the car blow his prediction away.
I had the pleasure of taking a ride in it and wow. That kind of torque curve is just amazing.

LET THAT HEAD BREATHE!!!!

That is a bummer.

Are you going to be back in TX at all this summer?

.Sure, but I guarantee I'll stomp on your B16

If I get really really lucky and am able to pick up a set of 550s soon, then you can have my 310s for cheap.

Nah, there's no way to tell when that car is ever done once it's in the shop.

Well, I wouldn't be calling it a stomping, c'mon give me a chance!!! My car will prolly weigh a bit less than yours by the time I am done, and I am still shooting for 225 whp, so I won't be too far behind you. You probably see me doing this in the rear view, but at least you'll see me...
I don't know man... it's all about torque and gearing!
nismogod@Jun 3 2004, 05:52 PM
i'm jealous, i hope my massive h22 weight can do those kinda numbers. if not, ima be a FI kinda kid. lol
