Need to pNp the heads. Then tune w/ piggyback. 15-20 crank HP gain right there.

 

What he needs is the 80mm throttle body setup, along with the intake mani opened to 80mm. That would probably yield around 10whp up top and some torque throughout the band.

 

Funny that both of you said that, Im plannin on doing some work on the heads soon. Also planning on trying to run a b series 74mm throttle body. Hopefully I can do this within the next month or so.

 

Ooooooh

If you do the 74mm TB are you gonna open the manifold inlet to 74mm as well?

I'm still debating on taking my butterfly valve out or not...I've heard mixed reviews.

 

A little update went to the track last night, best weather weve had in months in the low 70s. Only got to put in two runs because it was so packed. ran a 13.6 and a 13.7. Great trap speed not so great of a 60 ft. lol

Nice run.

 

Nice run !

 

Very nice man. 104mph is nice! You could be in the 12s on slicks....

I see you have the AASCO flywheel. You have it paired with the OEM clutch? I thought that wasn't possible.

 

You can run it with the stock clutch without a problem.

 

Very good times and dyno numbers! I wonder what it would run on slicks..

 

Yup no problems here Grabs pretty good too.

 

I doubt 12s but Im sure a real low 13 is possible with slicks I would just be scared of snapping an axle and the clutch not being able to grab.

 

WHat!!!!!!!!!!! I was told it couldn't be done because of the issue of springs. I was under the impression the springs were NOT on the stock disc, but on the stock flywheel and that the aftermarket disc indeed had the springs on it, when the flywheel didn't.

I was told this by a very reputable member so I had no disputes whatsoever.

12s are definitely possible. You had a 2.26 60' and ran 13.6. With slicks a 1.8 is entirely possible, and would get you down into the 12.9 range. I think the LW flywheel is helping your trap speed. How did it feel after you installed it?

 

The OEM flywheel is dual mass, if thats what they meant. There are springs in the stock disc as well.

 

Oh wow. I wish I would've known that. Since my stage 2 kit didn't work, I would've just used the lw flywheel with the stock kit I bought. The most important piece of the kit to me was the lwfw. I don't need the Stage 2 'clampability' (word?) as my stock clutch now tweets 3rd with authority. Ugh, oh well. What's done is done.

Sorry for the 1/2 jack reese. I'm jealous of your ET/trap. Hopefully when I go to the track very soon I will run something similar, although my hp numbers aren't quite as stout as yours.

 

reese's car has always run strong.
lets see the 12's man...lol

 

I just thought some might be interested since this has been speculated a lot. I was looking at j32a forum and read a post from p2r about what the tuning added number wise. Here is the quote from P2R.

"Tune picked up about 7-8 hp on peak, but about 40 hp in the mid range. "

 

Damn 40whp is a nice gain!

 

Thats exactly what sean told me on the phone too.

 

^ You need to do the 3.7 TL intake manifold and a larger throttle body. With your mods and large intake, you'll probably gain like 15whp.

 

Just got a blox 74mm throttle body.

 

Did you install it yet? You know the 3.7 manifold is 75mm at the opening Do it.

Hope the Accord is treating you well. I got dyno'd the other day again with my new exhaust. I put down 256/222 SAE corrected. STD numbers were 264/229.

 

on the new numbers.I installed the new throttle body the day I got it.lol The shitty thing is though the stock manifold can only be ported to about 71 or 72mm. So I got the mouth out to 74mm but it tappers in at the neck to about 71mm or so. I ported it till i busted a tiny hole through the manifold, nothing a little jb weld couldn't fix though lmfao. Went to the track last night to see if there was any difference. Ran a couple 13.3 at 105mph, Im sure though if it wasn't 80 degrees and like 90% humidity I could have beat my personal best of 13.2 at 106. I will upload some vids later .
That three inch exhaust gave you some nice gains, I think its time for me to step it up to a three inch.

 

Silly mustang just cause you have 400hp and slicks doesnt mean you can sleep on an accord.lol

 

just to put things in perspective as far as dynos go... see my sig ... thats how much dyno numbers mean ... now compare them to my 1/4 time ... next in general you will trap higher if you spin some out of the hole youve effectivley lengthened the track wgile simulatneously running the rpms up ... at both 1.9 and 2.0 60's on 13.30 @106 passes this mph is definetly not capable of acieving 12's short of some very low 1.8 60' im certain 108 is about where we need to be

reese ive spoken a few times as to my trick to getting better traction its pretty simple block the rear springs helps minimize the weight shift off the fronts

p.s. your 60's may be being affected by your missing butterflies

 

^ That's why I tell people every dyno reads differently. I put down 256/222 SAE. You put down 257/232. I know 100% your car is faster than mine. Dynos should be used to see gains mostly, because it's impossible to compare numbers from different dynos.

Reese, I'd advise a 3" exhaust for you. I'd also suggest a Venturi merge collector. I didn't think I gained anything at first really, but the numbers say otherwise. I got mine from SPDexhaust.com and it's awesome quality.

Btw these numbers are uncorrected. I'd think you would put down more like 270/230 SAE.

 

that 13.2 @ 106 is gonna be hard to beat. im sure with some tweaking you can get to the 12.99. its gonna be all in what you can do to the car though, because you cant drive it any harder than you do..lol...gl

 

If only they made ITB's for a v6.. haha, cams should be on your hit list. breaking the 340-350whp barrier should get you into the 12's with slicks.... that alone should be a nice daily driver.

 

very nice numbers!!

 

Nice work Reese! Mustang was priceless lol

 

Reese, you get that 12.99 yet?...lol
my car is still broken..i broke it before we ran that night and didnt even know it till i drove home...once my clutch/flywheel are on, then we can run again..lol..330whp/400wtq..i have all the bolt-ons now and a more aggressive tune..im getting a new turbo at the end of the year and it will put my numbers to 450whp and 400wtq!!! Cant wait....

 

Nope no 12 yet, I have not gone since my last update. Hopefully when it starts to cool back down ill be ready for another try. let me know when you get your clutch fixed ,ill give you a rematch but I'm sure the out come will be different this time with your 400wtq.lol

 

lol..i thought i was spinning tires at the track, but the only thing spinning was my clutch...haha..its barely even driveable right now..my flywheel should be in by next week, and i already have a clutch rated for 450wtq, but i gotta find someone to install it..its my only car, and everyone around here needs it for a full day or 2, plus they want 1000 to do it

 

Ok so I finally got an exhaust after running open header for a while. My first impression is man this thing is quiet, almost too quiet lol but sounds very nice and deep. Ill upload a sound clip later. I had my j pipe modded to have a parallel 2-1 merge and It goes 2.25 inch to 3inch. I have one big magna flow resonator and the exhaust exits through a vibrant muffler.








Here is a pic of how the motor bay is looking now


And finally a couple pics of how the car is looking

 

Reese! Want to head to the track tomorrow? I finally installed my pnp runners. The exhaust looks mean, lookin forward to hearing it in person!

 

Very clean.

 

I'm curious to how much power it makes and how it sounds now. Our setups are similar power wise. The car looks clean and simple. I like the way white looks!

 

didn't want to clog up the kills thread. Did you have to modify that b series TB at all?

 

Exhaust looks great man. Good choice on the Streetpower muffler

I'm so jelly of your wheels. They look like 18x9? Exactly the size I want too.....you SOB lol. Good work man, the car looks awesome. Like the paint-matched grille too.

 

The throttle body requires no modification. You do have to modify your throttle cable bracket slightly and you have to mod the iacv to keep it working. The iacv requires air before throttle plate and after ,so you probably have to drill a hole in the intake and one in the manifold. Also you will lose cruise control.
