Re: tuning guru's chime in

i know that trying to make decent tourqe on a b16 will own me but 194 sounds off and to peek so late in rpm ive been going threw my maps adding more timing so next week back to the dyno for hopefully some better numbers my cooling setup blows im thinking its the ebay intercooler i still usually only run 20 deg above the temp outside but i have afeeling its killing power some how.

I'm not hating, just saying when you throw enough boost at them they make fun street engines.

I tuned an 84mm B16 with a 57 trim on it at 18-19psi a few weeks ago that is a rocket ship, even if it's not making a ton of torque.

I'm not trying to bust your balls, plus an 84mm block has a little more displacement than the typical 1.6, I'm just trying to say torque from a b16 is never going to be what we'd like it to be. Add in the benefit of a light-weight chassis and it's always a recipe for good fun.
