I know i need a tune, but i ran out of cash plus i sort of lost my job, im trying to figure out what i can use in the meantime for now. I have a set of 450cc's layin around, but with no tune i might be putting too much fuel in at low rpm so i didnt put them in

2BarRacing 06-17-2009 07:33 PM

you will be putting more fuel in anyware

yes... but its too risky putting 450cc's on an un tuned motor..

Since i know that ppl with a d15 non vtec buy a y8/z6 ect vtec head to raise the comp, My question would be is that i have a d16y7(2000 civ block) if i were to get a y8 head.. would it raise the comp?

i really dont want to raise my comp but at the same time i know y8 heads do flow better.

eye candy??????. If your car is scraping the front bumper on the bottom, why would you let the pipe hang so low, you are going to rape those couplers with a good hand ful of concrete, seriously though, do not put your piping under and of the frame and especially lower than a bumper, especially if you rub in on the ground every once and a while.Tune it with 450's, that is the only way anything will work right, sell some ---- to afford it if its to expensive, and please get matching rims and have the car painted.
