whats up guys? i just had a 95' b16a2 swaped into my 94' del sol. it is a whole hell of a lot faster now put the torque is still weak. what are some good upgrades to bring these numbers up?

 

Good upgrades are usually expensive It sucks. You could turbo, with a fast spooling turbo you could increase your torque, or you could bore the bottom end out to increase the CC's, that will give you torque. I don't know know how much you would gain with massive bolt ons, but that's a few ideas.

Or you could just get a turbonator.

 

what turbo spools faster a t3/t4 or a t70? how much boost can that motor handle on stock internals?

 

I would highly recommend a Roots-type supercharger (such as Jackson Racing), if you want instant, usable torque with NO lag. The peak power gains will not match that of a turbo, but you will have plenty of immediate "lb-ft" at your disposal when you step on the gas at lower rpm .

If you go this route, there are a few things to keep in mind:
1) Do not raise boost over 42 kPa (6 psi), due to the high compression pistons in your engine.
2) J.R.'s FMU (rising rate fuel pressure regulator) is mediocre, so either get a different FMU (such as Cartech), or go for Hondata (best option, but super expensive).
3) Make sure it's tuned right!

Hope this helped. About 18 mos ago, I helped a friend install one of these blowers, along with Hondata and 440 mL injectors, on his beautiful blue 2000 Civic Si. After it was tuned, the performance was remarkable. I'm not a fan of turbos at all, especially on our Honda engines, but there are people on this board that feel the same way about Roots-type blowers. Oh well, to each their own . What ever you choose, let us know how it goes!

 

i've heard that those J.R. superchargers don't work to great, plus i am going to do upgraded internals oneday so i would like to go with a turbo.

 

i suggest a turbonater....or a electric super charger...best bang for your buck....(bang as in a peice of plastic gets stuck in your motor) lol....turbo turbo turbo...always good

just build your internals if your gunna run big boost...

 

hey hobo i got the same setup but a b16a2 in a 93 delsol so if u need any advice or could give me any. give me a holla

 

get rid of the honda then!

 

i saw on a website where they tried that turbonator thing and it didn't do anything.

 

Yea, it's a peice of shit, people are joking, but it's hard to pick up on internet humor and sarcasm.
