Re: my d16a6 build
so i fixed my throttle body and now the car idles real nice. i think that all my boost was blowing out that hole too, because now i hear my BOV more(even though its still strangely quiet) and it pulls harder down low. still trying to get a working camera so i can make a video. i think that the vitaras were a bad idea in a d16a6 because it is a dog until about 4000 rpm. but hindsights 20/20.

Re: my d16a6 build
still have a 60 trim t3, .48/.60, the compression ratio on this engine really blows for bottom end. im going to look into options to change that.
maybe a new block and some forged pistons
or a y8 head and finally join the vtec camp.
dont really want to do that. i have a wet nitrous kit lying around in pieces.
if i can piece it back together i will use i to try and spool the turbo faster for racing and ----.
my pops is buying me a datalogging cable and willem chip burner for my b-day so hopefully i can get the car tuned sometime this month.
im thinking like 15 pounds of boost. that might be fun if the engine survives. otherwise its time for new block and forged pistons.
just saw this, post 420. i wish i didnt quit smoking weed last night. worst idea ever.

Re: my d16a6 build
what is your compression when you tested it?
looks good nice little video.
my one suggestion is to relocate your o2 bung. having it at 6 oclock like that will durasticly shorten the life of WB02 sensors.
12 oclock is the best.
the good thing about quitting weed is you get laid within a week.
