    problem with street tuning is its really hard to do a 4th gear pull to 140mph on the street safely, and you cant drive and tune at the same time. you can log and then make changes. Its best to have someone else drive it, while you tune it, etc. Plus its not a controlled environment.

    Track is always good but even then , how do you get to the point of running your car all out, you have to have a workable tune first, and "trying it out" by running a track run is dangerous.

    its usually best to go "tune it" on a dyno, then make tweaks at the track with data logging. but not everyone can invest in a personal tuner, or have the equipment to tune a car themselves.

    Tuning is one thing in which I never picked up on.. The intimidation factor has always been there, kind of like jumping on a bike the first time!!

    I'd love to learn, but damn if I want to blow the shit up!!! LOL

    lol thats how i feel about engine building. I was always like god damn thats a lot of work just to fuck up and ruin something.

    But if you can build an engine, if you know how an engine works, then tuning is just something you gotta jump into but knowing how and why always helps.

    Like i said the EFI 101 class is a great place to start, it teaches you a ton of info and really make you understand what dyno time is really all about. I honestly thought i KNEW more in 2 days than a lot of so called tuners know.

    Anyone can turn sit behind a computer and hit numbers till the a/f "looks right". but understanding WHY a car makes power a certain way, and how to reach that point, is far more important.

    Some DynoJets have load bearing - most of the older units are inertia only.

    By all means I'm not the fastest here.. All I say is right now a B series runs the fastest times down the 1/4 in GA.. No one has knocked on that door!! Not an H or a K.. Roll racing is fun and safer, but I never cared for them.. I've done it to adapt and continue having fun!!

    5g's wouldn't matter. the only way you can make big power with a B is to rev it to the moon. so go build a 10.5k motor for 5g's. it'll make 250-260 and need a rebuild after a few dozen passes down the track. why even do that, when for the same money, you can make 10 less hp on a stock K that'll last 150,000 miles being ragged out every day.

    5 grand won't get you a 250-260whp b series. It'll take more than that and it'll take skill, the only 3 motors making over 230 were either built by Bisi (streetstuff) or DFE (me and chip).

    I'd be very surprised to see a real 250whp b series on a dynojet in Georgia. I do not believe one exists.

    Bobby seriously the whole "bought" vs "built" should not be an argument. Unless you cam build a similar motor we are all in the same boat IE we aren't as good as some of the top engine builders in the state/country.

    Some people like to build it themselves to learn (chunky and you) some would rather pay a professional to assemble the motor they want built (me, matt etc).

    No problem with either way IMO

    No, info on the RSX was he bought the longblock for 5K, I'm not knocking the guy.. I'm sure the bill came to be much more if the shop did all the work.. Just trying to stir them up a bit!!!

    EDIT:

    Moseley, run the Midnight hatch.. It's the same setup in the RSX homie!!

    Haha that's awesome that's a lot of power. Good luck :p

    I think the real motor that has best Hp/dollar is h2b personally. Relatively stock motors making 240-250whp with the tq is awesome paired with b series gearing.

    J32 is cheapest but then you're a 6 cylinder and can't compete against other 4s at the track

    For the record, Chip built his own motor. DFE only ported the head. As for the amount of power it makes, I won't say. But, it did run 11.6 a couple of weeks ago and he's got some more in the bag.

    I'd be very surprised to see a real 250whp b series on a dynojet in Georgia. I do not believe one exists."

    For the record, Chip built his own motor. DFE only ported the head. As for the amount of power it makes, I won't say. But, it did run 11.6 a couple of weeks ago and he's got some more in the bag.
