The ITB's really did help says the *** dyno..
Well tonite I took off my homemade ITB setup and put back on the stock B16a intake manifold. It was a fun little project and went alot better than I expected, but it's time to sell these things to aid towards my larger project.
After Swapping on the B16a 1g Intake on, I figured I should probably change the oil too, since there has been no air filter on this engine for 2 months. Oh and baby was it black, deep black love. So its getting kinda late and parts left, so I got screwed there is no ------- oil in the shop!
Oh I found some oil all right..
75-90w Love, for my beloveyd Trailerpark B16a, Dont worry, I threw a quart of ATF in there to mix it up hahaha
So, Overall thoughts of the ITBS compared to stock? I was a bit shocked when I drove it tonite with the stock manifold, throttle response wasnt as fast, the top end and mid range was all gone, and the cool noises that make ITBS neat was all gone too. I think for 225 bucks it was definatly worth it, and kinda a fun process. I couldnt tell you how much exactly the jeff frank *** dyno says, but I'd say a good 10-15hp was lost.
So... is the Trailerpark B16a done?
To Be Continued...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Beau stops by tonite and brings this freakish beast of a manifold over...
Couple shots of early stages, its going to be used on his Joe Dirt ZC w/ a T3/04e 70/48 Turbo. We'll get some more pics later..
Possible Joe Dirt vs Trailer Park B16a phase 2!
haha

Re:The ITB's really did help says the *** dyno..
jeff you should make another dyno run against beau when he gets his turbo mani finished
When did you aquire that sexy radiator, Jeff?
that loss of 10-15 hp might be from that oil you used
Why do you have exhaust wrap on the intake? Does it really make that much of a differance? Just curious
hey have you ever thought about a rear wheel drive honda project.. just curious
ill bet the motor doesnt smoke anymore
