3-Stage VTEC--COMPREHENSIVE INFO ON D15B/D15z7

Since your motor is a non vtec type you will be spending alot on the NA route and the power gains aren't spectacular. The amount of cash spent to get it up to 150whp would equate close to getting a motor swap. considering a light boost turbo root is a viable option since your cr is quite low...

Improved Fuel Economy from "Added" Low-Pressure Turbo

For NA cars just use smaller diameter intake runner. It does 2 things: 1. Increased charged air velocity with smaller diameter intake to promote better air fuel mixture and increase negative manifold pressure. 2. Will suffocate sooner than stock intake runner meaning top end power will suffer.

Improved Fuel Economy from "Added" Low-Pressure Turbo

Most engines' optimum brake specific fuel consumption is between 2000 to 3000 rpms. In other words, the motors efficiency will be at its optimum around that rev range. Anything higher the benefits will be cancelled out due to wind resistance. Low boost turbo equipped cars like the VW Golf 1.4...

Improved Fuel Economy from "Added" Low-Pressure Turbo

BOT depending on size of turbo and engine configuration will have different RPM points when manifold starts to intersect 0 boost. Anything under that intersect RPM point would mean the MAP sensor will read vacuum as the exhaust gas flow is too low to spool any positive boost from the compressor...

3-Stage VTEC--COMPREHENSIVE INFO ON D15B/D15z7

you'd have to search for it online. d15b half cuts are not common as they are not popular swap choices. Which year half cut do you have in mind?

3-Stage VTEC--COMPREHENSIVE INFO ON D15B/D15z7

u can slap in any d series motor in but if you are thinking of putting d15b 3 stage + CVT, some chassis & undercarriage work is required to clear the massive cvt gearbox as the EF engine bay space is limited. From carb based convert to EFI it's a hefty process. Make sure you get all the...

3-Stage VTEC--COMPREHENSIVE INFO ON D15B/D15z7

D16A VTEC would be around 130ps also with slightly lower rev limit and higher and earlier torque than D15B VTEC. There is basically 3 types of D16A available but I dunno whether all three is available locally. From observation looks like we only have option 1 & 2. 1. D16A VTEC (Wild cam)...

3-Stage VTEC--COMPREHENSIVE INFO ON D15B/D15z7

For which D15B engine is for the high cam? single or dual stage? I would presume it is only for single stage as I have no come across aftermarket cam specifically for dual stage yet. ---------- Post added at 05:36 PM ---------- 6 hour anti-bump limit - Previous post was at 05:29 PM ----------...

3-Stage VTEC--COMPREHENSIVE INFO ON D15B/D15z7

Looking for me? lol Anyway was browsing around seems we do have some SOHC VTEC lovers here haha. Though I haven't swapped to manual yet but I've been doing some background research on this for some time. But basically it boils down to this: 1. Manual swap + VAFC + tuning + other mods might...

Dunlop formula D01

I'm using this tyre as well. Will be noisy at first but once after front back and left right rotation its not noisy anymore. Grip wise dry and wet to me is fine but for that price not a bad deal either. i've driven mine to around 50K now due for change.

Turbo doesn't help my 0-100 Km/h (TD04 L15A)

Guys stick to the topic. For CVT, the ratio & change rate (up shift) is controlled by the TCM. In other words its the CVT that is pulling the car not the engine. If you have the paddle shift, at least you can lock the ratios at some point. For manual, it's the other way round i.e. engine...

singlecam vtec can add highcams?

for d16 engines there are loads of aftermarket cams for it in the states, but some i read dun really make that substantial improvement even after tuning. Other part modifications are needed to make more power. Another sensible route is to do p&p. Mind you making more power up top will lose low...
