Re: Sick of the B7 but some q's before the swap
 

D-VTEC is no advantage, not even to the hp per psi crowd. D-VTEC cam is, though.

Y7 with cam and IM swap = teh win

Re: Sick of the B7 but some q's before the swap
 

what do you mean by d-vtec cam? you cant put a vtec cam in a non vtec head can you. if so that is new to me

Re: Sick of the B7 but some q's before the swap
 

maybe he means there is no advantage of d-vtec unless you upgrade the cam?

Re: Sick of the B7 but some q's before the swap
 

Yeah, but the Y7 isnt vtec to begin with, J.D. what do you mean? What is a good cam for the Y7?

Re: Sick of the B7 but some q's before the swap
 

Y7 is crapwagon cam meant for no power. Get something more akin to Y8 VTEC profile, and you'll be happier.

Re: Sick of the B7 but some q's before the swap
 

What cam do you suggest? I have 0 experience with D-series cams.

Re: Sick of the B7 but some q's before the swap
 

Hell if I know, you have a Y7. The B7 guys I send them to an A6 or mild NA cam.

I tuned a D16Y7, it died off up top like a B7.

Re: Sick of the B7 but some q's before the swap
 

send it off to Delta

Re: Sick of the B7 but some q's before the swap
 

Died off up top? My B7's got nothin till about 5k, it will pull real hard up to 7200 which is where I stop reving it. I've got 12psi at 2800 rpm or so and the higher I rev it the harder it pulls.

Anyway thanks for the info, i'll look into a decent cam for the Y7, I think I'll go with that.
