Goal: mid/low 14's, hella trap speed, decent mileage in like a 90 or 91 hatch or CRX
OBD1 B16 (obd1 cuz i do tuning)
JDM ITR cams (a fiend is replacing the cams in his built LSvtec)
Used 4-2-1 header (purchased)
2.5" full exhaust w/ good cat
LS Tranny
Tuned with Moates and ChromePRO (When I figure out datalogging hondas)
I know, I can already hear you guys telling me about how a ys1 or gsr tranny would be better, but if I had cash i'd be going H22 anyway. The 1.6 motor should get me around town ok, get great mileage on the 1200 mile trip to laguna seca, and pull like a raped ape on the highway with those long gears....
What do you think about cam selection/head prep?
will 2.5" be adequate for the exhaust?
Is it ok to regularly spin a stock B16 bottom end to the 8400-8600rpm or so I would assume this cam would allow?
Like I said, mid 14's and hella top end is all i am looking for in a commuter, so rant on! I'm not dead set on a B16, hell i used to think they were junk.
