D3UC3S H23vtec

[D3UC3S]

Just got the motor from Matt at JEI and its awesome!!! got a few more things to purchase before she will be where i want her, but for now....

No name hacked accord intake :(
Kidd racing RMF style header(fucccin sweet!!!)
MSPi custom exhaust(thx Rob)
18o somethin whp and 150 somethin tq

not too bad....this is all in a CX hatch. 10 gal. tank FTW!

[highspeed]

those headers are sex!

[D3UC3S]

Thanks!!! they look even better now that they have changed to the goldish tint

[highspeed]

good luck with it. I would love to see what you get with some tuning

[D3UC3S]

look in the mainstream section...tuned with chrome gold

[IndianStig]

is this the EDM h23 stock vtec motor or is it a frankenstein?

also, those numbers seem low. i made 180/156 with my stock h22 w/ i/h/e

[BB1_Luda]

Its a blue top.
Most likely H23a

[D3UC3S]

yup...OEM h23a. numbers are a little low cuz i have a hacked ass intake and Rob forgot to bolt the tensioner to the alternator bracket so the voltage was all over the place. also has the smaller h22a TB on it cuz obd2 sucks and the car was already wired for obd1.

Im making that at 7000rpms max not 8200...good to hear your h22 made that tho

[TheSnail]

Car looks great and pretty damn impressive numbers. :goodjob:

[D3UC3S]

^thx man! you have the 199.99999 hp se-r correct? :) i would love to see how close we would run. i love that body style sentra.

[b17a1db2]

awesome car, did this one have a h22a in it before?

[D3UC3S]

yea it did.

[b17a1db2]

yea it did.

awesome... me and a friend looked at it when it was being sold w/ the old motor... just was curious to see...

[D3UC3S]

right on! i had that motor in it for a year, never had a problem other than the bearings were slowing goin bad. i got pulled over in the car when i was test driving it so i had to get it, it was meant to be! lol (no tix tho:))

[TheSnail]

^thx man! you have the 199.99999 hp se-r correct? :) i would love to see how close we would run. i love that body style sentra.

Lol, Thanks. You should come out to the 4/6cyl Na Callout in the middle/end of June. You and I could get some runs in then if you want. :goodjob:

[D3UC3S]

i just may do that...always good meetin new people. pm some details!

[scttydb411]

forgot to bolt the tensioner to the alternator bracket so the voltage was all over the place.

checked the datalogs and the voltage was stable throughout the final runs. the voltage issue coincidentally happened when it was done...good thing because the tune should be straight.

as for the poster that said it seems low...motors can be all over the place. i've seen h23vtec come in at 150 (ouch) all the way to 230ish.

[D3UC3S]

^^awesome, way glad to hear that...ya i didnt notice anything out of the ordinary on the way home.

people gotta hate sometimes. I don't understand how anyone can question something you have made better..o well. I will see you soon scotty! Thanks for all your help.

[PawnShopCEO]

D3uc3s... I bought the same motor from Matt... Mine has tb, kidd racing header, 3" exhaust, balance shaft removal, etc etc. Pretty much oem with stock cams and all bolt ons... It'll be nice to see what i t makes over yours with the little nick nack stuff. Nice numbers!

[D3UC3S]

please post it up when finished...i went with the 2.5" exhaust because thats whats the N1 was. That header sounds amazing after 3500rpms!!!! Matt is a great guy with great motors! Congrats and thanks for the compliments as well. what car is this goin in?

[LongLiveH2b]

Thanks!!! they look even better now that they have changed to the goldish tint

yea i love the goldish tint it'll last about 3 weeks that color, wish mine can stay that way. http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa307/pxhoang0408/myEG011-1.jpg

I got a MSPi magnaflow Catback to, but i went with the 3inch piping w/ 3inch resonator and 3inch Muffler and actually gained TQ instead of a loss, since most NA cars gain HP but a loss in TQ, H & K-series love the 3inch piping, with the RMF header and the 3" exhaust i gained 14whp and 6-8tq from 3800-7500rpm over a DC sport header, 177->191whp imagine if it was stock headers compared to the RMF.

Thats crazy how your gaining that power from your 2Krpm range, are your butterflie valves still connected and are you using a P72 ecu or a P28, I want to take mine off but i have to get it retuned since it'll run leaner since mine is already tuned with the butterflies.

[scttydb411]

iab open with p28. this is a freak motor. i was thinking one of the cams is off a little, but the timing and the power curve look fine otherwise. there may have been some head work done on this motor by the previous owner, maybe.

[D3UC3S]

what a bonus that would be! Who knows, japanese people take great care of their stuff. i guess we will find out eventually!

ya, my butterflies are stuck open

[D3UC3S]

i drove on the stock header and a horrible exhaust for a week...garrrrbage.

I couldnt believe the dyno pull he did when i heard vtec amost instantly. Me and Baby J looked at each other like "wtf". it is crazy on the street too. ur in vtec so soon u barely notice....after 3500 its just pullin like is being towed by a vette at WOT.

[D3UC3S]

[94ludeguy]

[PawnShopCEO]

my h23vtec is going in a 98 ek hatch

[D3UC3S]

yeah matt is a super cool dude! Every motor i ever buy in the future will be from him.
