why would you say that because the valve cover has a honda badge?

like i said before it would probably make a lil bit more horsepower, because of the revs. and less torque because of of well, the revs. VTEC might make up a lil for the gap but i still think it would make less torque.

I'm pretty sure mitsubishi had some influence over that whole car. If you built an H22 with the same compression ratio and removed the VTEC point it would be remarkably similar to the SRT4.

But if you have seen the turbo on one of those things you would know where to upgrade, I've had donuts larger.

I don't know why you make fun of domestics as much you do, the reason why they have a poor build quality is because they are built if the 'Good ol USA'. Get rid of worker unions and make them earn their wages properly.

I own no neon, wouldnt mind having a 1st gen and Boosting it thou.

I have a Dodge Shadow... right now its sitting because the previous owner put in a TBI clutch instead of a turbo one, and after intercooling it and upping the boost to 14lbs i killed the pressure plate.

right now its getting a new motor and trany and bla bla... but by the end of this drag season im gonna be laying down low 13's/high 12's on street tires for under 2k including the car.

I dont think shitsubishi had much if anything to do with the SRT-4. the 2.4 is a redesigned version of my 2.2, and hell its bolted into a neon that was designed here. not much jap there.

I am not sure what they have for boost stock but I know it isnt 16lbs. I dont think mitsu had anything to do with this motor.

Yes the turbos are tiny and its ---- that the manifold and turbo is all one piece.

Your right I am going to stick up for it not because I own a neon. Hell I will argue for mustangs or camaros any day too. Dont own one of those. I also stick up for hondas too.

I am not sure what car I will build up next. But a boosted 94-95 accord is some where on the list of cars to do.

It all comes down to preferance. But you dont see me saying civics blow and they are piles of ----. Because really they arent. Some have had their ups and downs. Same with neons.

if u can find proof and show me that its not at 16 lbs or anything close to that. if its making 230 hp and 250 lbs of torque with like 8 lbs then much props to it. but i highly doubt that. come on now though all the hp and torque is to the flywheel. honda made 240 hp with the s2000 motor but with only 162 lbs of torque. and thats only a 2.0 liter.
I'm pretty sure mitsubishi had some influence over that whole car. If you built an H22 with the same compression ratio and removed the VTEC point it would be remarkably similar to the SRT4.
but if u remove vtec that doesnt make it an h22 anymore. i dont know guys. i dont mean to offend anyone but i take pride in my car. im sure u guys do to with your american muscle or whatever u wanna call it. i dont care im going to own that srt4 no matter what i have to do. which is probably just boost. :P

uhhh if you have like a 95 civic. just boostin that motor will be hard to get into the 14 flat range. building it and boosting it, yes and faster

if you swap a b into your civic and boost the stock engine, you could be 14 flat range or faster...

thast what im tryin to say

yeah thats true i get what u mean. but its like man i dont really think that srt4 was very fast. he barely pulled away from me and stayed there. but we'll see what happens. if i cant beat em then thats that i guess. im not gonna quit until i get to where i want to be you know what i mean. i can swap a motor. but i just wanna see the potential of my sohc motor. i dont really care if it blows up in my face cause those things are eazy to come by. id be kinda iffy if i had a gsr swap and boostin it. but im almost positive if i had a h-swap i could take him. and dont get me wrong u know. im not saying my sohc turbo is gonna be hella fast. i just havent experienced it to let u know. ive rode in a d16y7 boosted. and boy did that thing move. had a lot of potential. and building a sohc is way cheaper than a b series. so i think of it as like buying a bseries swap is cool in all but all that money could have just went and just built my sohc turbo and would have been faster. i dont know thats just me. this ---- is getting to long im gonna stop it right here. lates
