it was not easy especially since i was trying to prove that it could be done with those stock parts! know its time to move forward with my mods.

stock catback will be replaced with 3"
stock intercooler will be replaced with front mount
dsm link will be here tuesday!
my goal is about 320 to 330 to wheels:thumb:

Put it on a dyno and find out. It's the only way. Bench racing not only sets you up for disappointment, but it's against the rules here as well.
 
I know, its what I need and want to do, I was just curious to see what everyone thinks, so I know what I should be looking for hp wise. Once I get her dynoed, I'll post again and let you all know how the EXACT numbers shes putting out

Highly doubt it.

Sorry but I have to agree. Breaking down your list I find 4 power additions with one being questionable.
The stock motor puts down about 140HP from what I have read.
1. s16G @ 18psi
2. SBR exhaust manifold
3. 3" exhaust
4. K&N filter
I can't see these making 160whp. I think you have a fun quick spooling street car. Probably a blast in stoplight to stoplight running. I did not check out the thread starters mods as he listed what he had for restrictions but I will see what he has and do an addition. The Buschur stage 1 block and head are not what I would call racing components either. Mark
PS: The originator of this thread had an EVO3 turbo which can flow as much as 42lbs/min of air compared to the small 16G at about 34lbs/min. Each lb/min is = to approximatly 10HP. So he has a potential to make 80 more HP with the difference in turbo's and given powertrain loss that's around 60HP using a high 25% loss. He also has HKS 264 cams. Not sure but will take a stab at 20HOP being conservative which is 15HP at the wheels and his head is ported and polished. Not sure if he has more than a stage 1 buschur for head work so leave that out of the equation. That still gives him 75hp more to the wheels. As was said bench racing is against the rules even though we all do it if only for ourselves when purchasing a new mod.
If you're enjoying your car and it's running well then you are ahead of the game. I was wondering how you are using a 255Walbro without an AFPR. That must have you running rich. What about something to tune with, did I miss that? You would surely be running rich without fuel control. If you want to do a good mod not too expensive go with the GM MAF and MAF-Translator. You already have a 2.5" upper pipe, yes? For less than $300. you could get what was needed to do this mod. Flows much more air and gives you some fuel control. Enjoy the ride!

I confused what do you have a VR4 motor or a BR motor?:confused: And if you are running a BR "RACE" motor why the are hell do you have a s16g on there?

Where did you get 140hp.That seems extremely low.I know a guy that dynoed a stock integra gs-r that put more power down than that.I would think with your setup you probably wont make 300 but i bet you will be in the upper 270 range.I did not see you list any kind of injectors,you will definetaly need at least 550s to get anywhere near 300.You will also probably have to run alot more than 18psi of boost.

Um. . . 140hp? im pretty sure a stock 1g is btwn 195-200 and 2g's are around 215hp. But 2g's also weighed more.

So how you're doing math on his setup isn't correct. If you were talking NA than yeah, but then you couldn't add the 16g and the 3" exhaust would be overkil (unless he was running some helatious CR or spray). But you're assuming a turbo, exhaust, intake, ect, have to make 160hp. Thats can't be right.

Not tryin to call you out just making sure the correct info if being delivered. Where did you find a stock turbo motor with no turbo is 140hp? And how do you know a nice 16g and some good flow mods can't put him into the 300's?

I'm also curious about this motor stuff. Maybe he got a JDM gvr-4 motor and had it built to "stage1 race" specs through buschur?
 
^ You are talking about the BHP #'s provided by the manufacturer. He's talking about whp #'s. My talon dyno'd at 143 awhp with an O2 dump, 1g bov and 14b at 15psi and everything else bone stock. Now converted to drivetrain loss I was making about 206 at the crank. Same dyno same day a guy with a 16g, fmic, pump, injectors and afc made 167 awhp. Plus this 300 whp is fwd in which there is half the loss through the drive train.

There's no way these cars only made 140whp stock. Thats rediculous. I understand drivestain losses and the difference btwn crank and wheel hp. But there is no way a turbo 4g63 motor only makes 140whp when it's non-turbo counterpart makes about the same on a fwd platform. This has got to be wrong. I think we need a wiseman on this one.
 
haha I know what you mean I was very discouraged when I saw that I dyno'd 143 awhp. It was a Mustang Dyno and people said that they read very low. Everyone was like wtf. My car was pretty damn stock. Just a 1g bov, 14b at 15psi and an O2 Dump. Stock intake, stock exhuast all that crap. Ill post pics of my dyno to show you as well.

1G, rated at 195HP. Estimate 15% drivetrain loss, and you get 165awhp. Take into consideration conditions, condition/age of the motor, and 140awhp is totally believable.

His power adders consist of an exhaust, and slightly upped boost. A s16g isn't going to outflow a 14b at 18psi by much, considering his list of mods. He is on a stock sidemount, no fuel control, and a borderline stock car. It isn't going to come anywhere near 300hp.
 
HAHA, i just don't want to believe my car with 140hp pulls on some of the things that it does. And then something like 12% loss because i'm auto. This is sad guys, looks like i've got WAY more work to go till i hit my 350-400hp goals.
 
allgripnoslip, the dyno slips don't lie. that makes me a sad panda. Where did you find a awd dyno in michigan? and how much was it? after i build and break in my motor and trans this summer i wanna get some base #'s.
