Blog Title: FWD 14b project
In the beginning, there was Christine. I bought her from a friend that had left the car sitting in a field for years. It cost $300. Within a few hours, we had the car running again (entire turbo inlet pipe had a mouse nest in it). Then we started with the cheap/free mods.

With just an MBC, K&N, o2 dump, and upper/lower IC pipes, the car ran a best of 13.6 @ 108, killing the stock clutch in the process. Then we picked up a used B16G, FMIC, 550s, pump, clutch, 264s, and AFC, and fabbed a full 3" exhaust. This got us to a best of 371whp and 13.1 @ 111.

Fast forward a few years, I bought back my '93 Talon that I had previously sold to buy a house. I decided to go back to a stock appearing setup and see what it could do. With a 14b, Dejon SMIC, HKS 272s, 255/550s, hacked 1G MAF, 5 knob AFC, full 2.5", 2600, and little else I ran a best of 12.12 @ 112.1 on VP 103 unleaded. In '07 the car was totaled.

Skip ahead a couple more years, and I decided to give the 14b another go with a FWD setup this time.

So my last entry was awhile ago (see mod list here), and I mentioned that the next update would have dyno and timeslips so here goes.

First, the dyno. Shortly after my last update I hit the local dynojet. 23-24psi peak boost, falling to 15-16 by 6k. Running on E85. Made 321whp and 336 ft/lbs. Can't complain for a 14b on stock head/cams/intake!
