Been meaning to make a thread about the build for a while. I paid a local performance shop to build the motor and install the supercharger. There were some snags, I ended up having to buy more parts than I originally thought, but thats the norm for any build. I did some of the work on the car, but the shop did the bottom end and supercharger. They did more in 3 weeks than I did in the whole first year Ive now owned the car!
A friend of mine tuned the car on Neptune, he is a very well known tuner in south fl and helped me a lot with the build. On the initial dyno tune the car made 226hp/177tq. This was only to get it running with the supercharger and bigger injectors. The torque curve was so ridiculously fat. It is only making 7psi and needs some more tuning. Its still pretty quick and real fun
sorry the vid cuts off, camera died...
Took it to the track to practice with my newfound horsepower. I went on a NSCRA sponsored test and tune, and a whole lot of my buddies from floridahondacrew.com were out there. Got some good advice and managed to borrow a helmet for the day. Found out its really easy to spin my little BFG drag radials. Finally started getting the hang of launching and got the two-step set right and managed to run pretty consistent low 13s at 104-105 mph. I still need more practice and new engine mounts and it should really be hitting high 12s. my best 60ft times were only 2.0s, I know i can do better with more practice.
heres a couple vids from that day.... i get a terrible start in one and run a 13.7, the other one is not so bad, i run a 13.3

Build Specs:
b20z block 84.5mm
Eagle H beam rods
CP pistons 9:1 (actual CR closer to 9.5:1)
ACL race bearings
b16a head w/ all new oem valves, seals, valve job
crower dual valve springs
crower titanium retainers
Blox A cams
Buddy Club adjustable cam gears
RC 550cc injectors
hondata IM gasket
ajdustable FPR
Walbro 255lph fuel pump
62mm throttle body (want a bigger one!)
ebay intake
RMF replica header 4-1 narrow style
T1R 2.5" test pipe and cat back exhaust
ACT HD pressure plate w/ ACT performance street disc
ACT streetlight 12.5lb flywheel
probably more that I cant think of... and of course during the build all seals, belts, gaskets, water pump, oil pump, etc were all changed.
updates will be coming! more boost and more tuning... and maybe a few other things...
Im trying to get 300whp out of this thing
