Hey snickers, what would you say most stock SR16 heads flow at stock? Would the flow be comparable to, say, a 2zzgte toyota, or a B18C?

I'm sure you guys will stumble on my video sooner or later...

The new BW stuff is really good, but transient response isn't quite as good. They have some mean TS designs and some amazing exhaust wheels. If only their compressor wheels were a "little" better. ...

Thank you coach. I was wondering why they wanted over $800 for a PWR core when I can get a reg core good for 1000hp for $200.

I have talked to my domestic friends and they all say they have ama...

Business admin, nice. I hated getting my business degree. Too much accounting and crap. I still don't understand it ;)

They will ;)

You graduate as well? I will be graduating this April with 3 bachelors degrees. Automotive, Business, and Technical Sales.

Don't know how marketable I will be, but it has been hell.

The tube diameter is different on the VVL engines. It is the same as a GTiR oil tube diameter. If your tube is messed up, get another stock one from Greg V.

Hopefully I get into the 500+whp VE-T crowd soon enough. It should be pretty awesome. I can't wait to get even baseline numbers!

When it comes to the turbine, Garrett can't touch the BW. BW turbos come twin scroll in a lot smaller sizes too. I have heard the response from these turbos is insane. Who knows, maybe I will try o...

I have thought about it, but the 35r is too much of a drag turbo on a 2.0L. I have yet to ride in a car with that turbo that is responsive the way I like it. The 35r would be decent on a 2.3L. But ...

Look at the dyno graph. He is running a 3076r with the .78 AR housing. Unless he is using a t4 exhaust housing. A friend of mine made 567whp on his GT30R with an .82 housing on his civic.

I am ...

I will be selling my protech log mani with turbine housing and wastegate. The wastegate has 2 springs.

I am hoping for the best outcome here. I would like to make about 100whp more or so. I thin...

That dyno is absolutely amazing. Thanks for the post. The correction factor is high because of the low ambient pressure way up here. I would like to hit 475-500whp uncorrected, but it will be reall...

Pennzoil got a new additive package beginning of 08 I believe that is supposedly a lot cleaner.

The new Castrol Edge is a nice synthetic. It is a toss up for that and Amsoil at this point. It ha...

So using a 1.15 correction factor, I will be around 517whp @ 24psi with this setup if I hit around 450whp uncorrected. This seem about right? I would love to hit the numbers manny hit with his setu...

6-7psi max. You prob cant make more than 320whp without a rod breaking I would guess.

Plus the small turbos won't like the valve overlap that the big 16ve cams have, so you would want a little b...

Also, if the powerband still isn't dropping off with the new setup, then I will be revving to 8000-8500rpm with valve springs and an MSD box.

Well, as you can see my powerband right now is kinda crappy. I peak power and hold to redline, but when I shift and RPM drop to 5500rpm I lose a ton of power. I drop to 350whp at 5500rpm, down from...

You are right, the simple physics I laid forth are not what really happens in the real world. Though friction remains the same without the objects moving, things get a lot more complicated as soon ...

VE-T twin scroll setup

AAAHAHAHAHAHA. Wow, drama. I love the build. That thing is putting down serious numbers. Well done guys. Very impressive! This just goes to show you that a bump of over 2 points to the compression ...

With the latent heat of vaporization for water, there is a tremendous cooling effect when water evaporates. Each gram of water absorbs about 540 calories of energy from the surrounding air in order...

I will be running the frozenboost kit for 600hp, with the reservior. the heat exchanger is 24X12X1. It will go in the factory condensor mounting area. I will be carrying about 3-4 gallons of water ...

I did .019 on top ring, and .021 on 2nd ring on stock bore. You can go tighter, and I would in retrospect. The ring gaps that the companies tell you with the piston set are a little conservative an...
