shit you are probably close to 200whp now, pulley will definitely put you over the top.

Really? That's interesting. I feel like my TL-P is more powerful than the numbers suggest, as well.

i have a hard time believing you're not pushing almost 200whp right now with those mods. on my type-S i made just about 219whp with headers alone (although i do realize i said the magic word --> type-S).

a local speed shop charged me $70 for 3 dyno pulls, which to me is a good deal to find out if i got my money's worth out of my mods. i would think once you put the pulleys on you should be at, if not damn near 200whp. if that doesn't do it maybe it's time to think about thermoblock spacers and maybe even a VAFC to see if you can tweak a few extra ponies out of the car. good luck man!

"Vtec Air Fuel Controller". it's a unit that plugs into your car's computer and essentially manages your fuel and air intake for your car. it also allows you to change your VTEC engagement/disengagement points.

if properly tuned you can get some decent performance gains. although alot of people have said that it really works best when you're heavily modded allready.

Don't you have a TL-P? There isn't a B-Pipe for us. Did you custom mod it to fit? I ran 180whp/180wtq on the 19's on without the headers, pullies, or exhaust. With everything on now and stock 16's I should have 200whp and 200wtq too...

Have you installed the Comptech B-Pipe? I was told it only fits the Type-S models.

i will install tmr

i took the b-pipe to the garage today and my mech tried to measure the fitment

surprisingly the b-pipe fits but the y-pipe is a little too short to the left muffler by 2 inches, but it fits with the right muffler

so he's gonna make an extendsion to my comptech mulffers at the joint to make it fit to the y-pipe and it would be done

will keep you guys posted tmr
