Spooling a cb7
hey guys my name is antoine and i've been looking over this site for about a week now b4 posting and i've learned quite a bit from this extremely helpful site. I'm finding info on here that i can't find anywhere. Anyways my project, i've got a 91 accord lx (f22a1 engine with an f22a6 intake mani) that i've collected just about a complete turbo setup for. Here's the list that i have of stuff i have right now or is on the way:
turbonetics t3/t04E ball bearing turbo, 50 trim,.63 a/r, stage 3 turbine
Mandrel bent intercooler piping
T-Clamps
MHI Intercooler
Paxtor fuel pressure regulator 12:1 FMU (after reading the this site over...i'm selling it)
Red Tial 42mm Wastegate
Red Tial Blow-off valve
Greddy Boost Gauge
2 7/8" custom downpipe
Custom exhaust wrapped stainless steel exhaust manifold
GReddy Turbo Timer
I'm going to be boosting about 8 psi on this daily driver of mine and need some help with the fuel and ignition timing setup. I would like to purchase the following and hopefully have a nice well rounded and SAFE setup:
adj. FPR
walbro 255 lph fuel pump
s-afc
dsm 450cc injectors
adj. cam gear
1 step colder plugs
all together that should cost me about $570 give or take. I really need to know if this setup is safe and tunable to about 10-11psi on the stock block. I'd only up the boost to 10-11psi if i absolutely had to pull out the big guns tho.
Things i'd like to add to this setup if i can are:
3" mandrel bent straight pipe(is it ok to leave my dinky stock exhaust on for like 3 weeks to a month?)
Ractive MT2710 muffler
delta reground f22a6 camshaft
msd blaster coil and other ignition upgrades that i've yet to research
I can't find too much about other ppl building this engine in great detail so it makes it very hard. Once again my questions are:
Are my fuel and ignition plans powerful, safe, and reliable?
Can i get away with the stock exhaust for a couple of weeks without harming anything?
I'll be getting everything tuned by Stage 6 Motorsports and they said they charge $125 an hour on the dyno...about how much time should it take to tune (i need to know how much money i need to save for it cause i'd like to have $400 for tuning)
preciate guys and thanx in advance

Re:Spooling a cb7
the stock exhaust will be fine, its just going to spool slower. The hack works really good, if your really worried about detonation I'd reccomend 2 step colder plugs. Retard the timing like 2 degree if you really want to be safe. I'm running 11 pounds daily, non intercooled on my Civic with zero detonation with the hack, 450's and a vafc.

Re:Spooling a cb7
i really want to break the 13's with a little more work eventually but for the time being me and my g/f have a little bet going on. The bet is i have to take the difference that she got her car for and the difference i got mine for and beat her in a 1/4 mile race. She has a 95 eclipse gst and i've got the good ol' 91 cb7. I've got basically $3000 to spend and have done alot to the car b4 the turbo setup came along. I spent about $1000 b4 the turbo setup and $1650 on the turbo and i have to spend about another $550 or so. Yea i'm going a little over the budget but take something off at the track before we race to even things out...think i can do it? I do!!!
