results of the mission to get 150whp

[talontsiawd]

I don't know about accords and f series motors but i think a cam would wake your car up. 150 is a big mark on a fairly low reving engine without high compression etc. Bolt ons will only get you so far. You can open everything up but if it's not going in and out of your valves, it's not going to do much. Thats why people usually don't see much gain after intake/exhaust. With that headwork i bet a cam would give you a decent gain, and get you closer. I bet a dynojet would give you 5hp more or so anyway.

I know you said you don't want to but 5 spd man. I swear the AT cars i drive feel down like 15 hp from my car. It's obviously not that much, it's the fact i can shift where i want and better gear ratios as well but it's a big difference by the seat of your pants dyno.






Retroshark, i really hope you arn't running your turbo with no piping. You can really damage it as it's not seeing boost so the wastegate won't open, making the turbo spin to whatever it will go to.

put some light weight wheels and dyno it see wat u get

for every pound of the crank you gain a average of 2.3hp at least for V8

[AFAccord]

You'll do just fine now with the MT.
