how in the hell???

[INTR2001]

No it just means they have less emission sensors and less a pain when modding

How was the race? were you side by side on low RPMs? and what type of I/M do you have?

 

[TegSox]

what type of I/M do you have?

He said he has a Skunk 2 IM.
And why did you quote cabezzz before you asked your questions?

I just click reply man.... Well since Skunk 2 makes great I/M, I'm guessing he doesn't have his car tuned correctly because with those kind of mods, He needs more fuel....NEW ECU or chip it.

Use the Post Reply button on the lower left side and you won't be unnecessarily quoting people.

I explained what his problem is. Tuning his ECU may help a little bit here, a little there, but it won't solve the problem that he has mismatched parts, an incomplete engine package, parts that are working against each other. It won't help anywhere near as much as having a properly put together engine package.

Or click the piece of paper with the arrow for quick reply.

Maybe the answer to all this is to throw a turbo on there.

There are no difference in HP OBD I - OBD II.... and what makes a good combo in your mind.

 

[TegSox]

It depends on what the persons' goals are with the car. How much HP is he looking to make? Where does he want the powerband to be? Does he want a street car...aka a daily driver, or a drag car, an auto crossing car setup?

 

[ltrain]

ask him what tires he had and what the other dude had,

By what you said, how do you know what is in his mind then? you cant say he hasn't thought about the mods that he's put into it unless he's just putting it in there for looks.... But by the looks of it and what he's saying, he's wanting power......Your right about the fact that certain parts don't work well together but he hasn't even told you what brands he's put together.

 

[CLspec]

Yeah but ill work a little better than that I/M, why people think I/Ms are the sh!t :???:

its the shit..if u have I/H/E/PnP/TB/Cams....i gotta skunk2IM n it kicks hard in my 96LS

 

[CLspec]

if both of u are good drivers then..hes a better racer!....bein a good driver n racer is not the same thing.....u spend all the money on what u got n still lose to a gsr wit I/H??...its the driver

I don't know what's in his mind, that's why I'm asking him.
I can tell he hasn't thought about his mods because he has an IM and TB on a car with only I/H/E. If he only put those parts in for good looks, then it wouldn't be a mystery to him why he's not as fast as thinks he should be.
To me, by the looks of what he's saying, he wondering why his car isn't as fast as he thinks it should be. He didn't start this thread to ask how to make more power, he's asking why he not as fast as he thinks he should be with what he has right now.
I only asked what brand he had because different brands make their parts differently. Companies make TB in all different sizes, same with IM's, they come in all different runner legnths/diameters/plenum volumes. All those things affect how much and where HP/TQ will be made. I was interested to see how much he increased the volume/slowed the speed of air he's giving the engine. I'm glad to see he didn't put on a turbo IM and a 70mm TB, at least.

and for ltrain, What tires did you and the other guy have on your cars?

 

[speedin]

No it just means they have less emission sensors and less a pain when modding

lets not forget the fuel cut offs, and speed limiters. even though they had no effect in this race, just being complete

its 94-95 and the reason is obd1.

Sometimes people do get factory freaks. There was this kid on clubcivic that was hitting 15.5 in a fuckin 95 civic ex with intake / header / exhaust, otherwise it was a stock d16z6 ... then he threw on a chipped ecu and brought it down to 15.2. I was at the track the day he pulled the 15.2.

Then my friend has a 95 integra ls with I/H/E and high flow cat and his best is a 15.04 @ 92 full interior i dont know how hes pulling those times cause most other folks with ls ive heard run high 15s. I havent been to the track with mine so i dont know, but mine does seem a little weaker than a 94 ls i test drove that just had intake and custom catback with no resonator.

Remember though these runs are all around 30 ft or so above sea level, sac raceway.

i've been told my gsr is a factory freak the owner before me showed me his time slip completely stock it ran a 15.1
