B16a build

[KevinT707]

I made 156hp/110lbs 2 years ago on Mainstream's Dyno, untuned (obd0) with just bolt-ons, and a CTR intake cam/b16 exhaust cam revving to 8200. Now with the CTR exhaust cam, new exhaust, and finally some tuning, I hopefully I can touch 165-170hp or atleast make 115-120lbs of tq LOL.

Before my B16 spun a bearing (running nitrous) in like 05-06 (before you made 156 whp), it put down 150whp/110tq on Mainstream's Dyno tuned (OBD0) but I had slightly less mods too. Anyway point is that it's still slow & that you will not make 165-170hp with 115-120tq!

It's possible

I talked to a heavy hitter (I'll leave his name out) on the board about an old b16 build (stock bottom end) he did in the past. He was able to get 175hp (but less than 120lbs tq) out of his b16 with less mods than me (but a slightly bigger cam). So power is possible with the right tuner


Also, Guy made 148hp with just a header and exhaust. So it's about quality too
