NA SOHC F23A1 Build - DYNO'd!!!

cvjoint · Feb 23, 2010

Holly car tunning Hollywood! I read this guys f22 build in Sports Compact Car several times over. He made a 17:1 high revving monster, great read and numbers! For reference he made something like 245wtq out of it, but no dyno was provided in the mag.

I got my car tuned at Church Automotive, the last time by Sean himself. We have legends amongst us in CA, too bad our legislators are a bunch of idiots.

Ok, let me clarify again - I meant new = Rebuilt, Re-manufactured.

It's my original motor - it had 155k when i pulled it out of the car. I replaced it with a newer F23A4 which I dyno'd the car with the first time.

Now, the newly built (old motor) is back in the car with new piston kit and a few mods.

You can't go buy a new motor for these cars anymore. You have to rebuild you old and slap a few new parts in it.

You can. If there is a part number for it, Honda has to provide you with a new one. Expect to pay upwards of $5000+ for a brand new long block though. And you may have to by it in pieces, but you most certainly can buy a new engine with zero miles on it.
