non vtech

 

dude its vtec not vtech.... and it wontlast long on 11pds... espeacailly w/o a stand alone or some type of fuel management

 

If you don't boost it all day long and drive it with some restraint, it'd last a good while. Some simple mods that would help it last longer would be some ARP head studs that you can get from Summit for ~$100 and a good tuning session on a dyno (if you decide to get a Hondata).

Good fuel management is key to a well running engine.

 

the H comes in on instinct sorry
but with a management system and the right ratios it should last?
how bout a piggy bck ?

 

A VAFC/SAFC is no substitute for a Hondata, especially when boosting. I gained 30 whp in tuning on my Hondata and I have a lot of room to grow.

 

how does a hondata compare to a aem?
would you suggest the hondata s200?

 

11 PDS? its not gonna last on stock bottom end...you wont last 6 months daily driving 11 pds... i dont even think aem ems can help or hondata... your gonna have to build

 

S200B. :goodjob:

The AEM is an extremely powerful stand-alone. The problem is, there's not a lot of people out there that can tune them yet. Granted, there's not a lot of Hondata tuners out there either, but far more than there are AEM EMS tuners.

The Hondata will do you very well.

 

well in the great white north ppl dont know how to tune anything
you wouldnt suggest tuning your self?

 

Sorry man, you're wrong. I know the consensus/rumor is that you can only boost like 6-8 psi on stock internals, but that's all it is... a rumor.

I have a friend boosting a D16Y8 with a 15G Greddy kit on 11 psi daily. He goes to the track and runs it ragged almost every week and has had the kit on for over 2 years now. He dyno'd at 220 whp with NO internal mods, Greddy 15G kit, RC 440s and a VAFC.

2 years... on 11 psi... no internals touched.

Like I said, if you push boost from the time you get in it to the time you get out, it's not going to last.
