update on chip!!
#162
Personally thats how I think Honda/Acura engines are known to last longer. Due to the fact that we run rich it keeps temps down, good for our aluminium parts which have a lower melting point than iron or steel.

You guys keep posting dyno sheets one of which stated SR&C. I lived in Boca. Been there done that. Joe still there? Those guys worked on my Vette extensively (put in a DFI system and did a real good job of messing with the fuel mapping) they also worked and raced with a close friend of mine that had a modded 2nd gen RX-7.

Haaaa yea Joe is still there, older guy right. The guy who did my dyno was George. Cool as shit, we talked for an hour after the dyno. Great place, and what I think what really gets them to get more customers than the other dynoes W on 441 around Glades, is the price and the ammount of dyno pulls that they would do. Guys are very professional.

Yeah, the dyno work is fine - as for the rest of the work, I have been less than thrilled, but maybe they are better at this point. I have not been there in a few years. When I dealt with them about my Vette I was pretty upset with the work they did. They stuck the new DFI computer under the passenger rug. I mean right under the rug where the passengers feet went. Not cool. Anyway, don't mean to slam them, but be careful if they do any work on your car. I do know they are pretty good with nitrous set-ups, but we never got to that point on the Vette.

Naples was a nice place, but too damn quiet. I would go over the Ft Laud for some fun. I have only been in Sarasota about 6 weeks(for work) and am not sure how I feel about it. Right now, just feel out of place. Boca was sweet, but also real f-ing busy during season. How do you like WPB?

wishful thinking, lets see....
headers, intake, exhaust, 10 PSI from turbo or SC, 3.5L upgrade, performance tranny, new throttle body, pulleys, nitrous, vafc or boost controller....only things left are the chip, tires for all that torque and a new axle. What's that about $15-20K? Did I forget anything?

Rebuilding the engine for low compression, filling in the engine block, cams, ignition amplifier, fuel pump, transmission upgrade. There's alot more.

Just spoke to Alan today and he said he's just finishing up the RSX ECU piggy-back kit. Here are the results he briefly told me (peak gains):
ECU ~10whp
CAI + Titanium exhaust ~10whp
ECU + CAI + Exhaust ~27whp peak, but significant gains through-out entire band
Basically, the more mods you have, the more you can squeeze out some power!
He got a CL to do the wiring and such on already, but in about 3 weeks he needs to do some tuning on a CL. I volunteered, so if he needs me he'll be using my CL and mods to do the tuning.
