Type R with ITB and Skunk2 cams

I agree the car was lacking some what on power. But it sure doesn't run like it. Does it matter how loud people's vtec is, seriously that remind me of an argument in a parking lots about this

"MY aem CAI made my vtec scream"

"No way man, I switched from that to a Injen short ram, and oh my god, it made a world of difference. I didn't make anymore HP but vtec is louder, which makes it seems like I am going faster"

haha, i only brought it up because usually ITB's = massive increase in noise level....that thing was relatively quiet....i actually wish my car was quiet, i hate driving around in loud cars

haha simular thing happen to me awhile back with a white TypeR teggy, he wanted to have a vtec contest..

i mean the car screams but like random said it should be louder with the ITB's...

wow....mine is louder and a hell of a lot smoother than that

 

[Ninefivejiggaja]

yeha man that xover sounds pretty damn good,

 

[EM1_ProJect]

mine wont work on firefox or IE....even if i save

 

[vandynamics]

ok lets get somthing straight. theres a difference between loud and hard. if your vtec kicks in hard, im sorry but your s**t is tuned wrong. the whole idea behind vtec in the first place was to maintain a stable powerband even into high rpms. if its loud, its understandable, but no-one should hit vtec hard, and you should stop messing with a ricer vafc.

vtec = ricer turbo.i know this because i have it.

 

[Going-West]

i wouldn't call it a ricer turbo, but he's right, if you have huge power spike at vtec engagment, you need a better tune. its not supposed to feel like a turbo when it hits

 

[05]

haha, ricer turbo, can i put that in my sig

 

[EM1_ProJect]

that thing sounds exactly like mine does.....i'd put it on a dyno and show ya'll but i dont have a dyno lol. maybe when i get my new camera tuesday ill make a short video from inside the car and host it.

" Final numbers were 180Hp and 132 Tq. Not as much as he hoped for but, still a strong car."

On your website it didnt make 180... numbers on the dyno sheet there were 178.85 hp and 132.71 tq
and the ITR engine is 197hp stock im not surprised he had hoped for more... ive got 187hp from my b16 with bolt ons and minor mods...

also
"Best time in it un tuned was 8.5 in the 1/8th mile at South Mountain in PA"

8.5 ??? lol

plz just be quiet now

 

[97BlackCivic]

I "had" a stock b16 with omni power valvetrain and type-r cams and type-r ecu and when i hit vtec it wasnt smooth. And i didnt have no fancy gagets. i ran a respectable 155 whp with a gsr tranny.

 

[joshb_]

almost sounds like it loses power after vtec

Still a sick set up

 

[93turbo16]

Na, it doesn't loost power at all. Keeps climbing all the way.

 

[FhCRubarb]

I hate it how it has no low end D:

 

[93turbo16]

they were all 4th gear pulls if that makes you feel anybetter. The car is very responsive on the street.
