WTF is wrong with the CRX??? Dyno PIC
 

My friend instaled buddy club spec 3 cams, spoon camgears, port and polished head, SS exhaust, aem intake, 4,5 kgs flywhell and costum ECU map(old setup map) and made 181 HP on the motor, 135 HP at the whells and 138 Nm torque and his car is been beated by several others CRX´s with only Intake and exhaust and many less power than his. What could be wrong? Any guesses? I´m thinking about the ECU map altough the car made all that power in the dyno.. Please give your advices. Thanks.

maybe your friend doesn't know how to launch properly, or doesn't know how to race his car good.

I´ve think that but that´s not the problem since I´ve saw him driving. He´s not a pro for sure but also isn´t that bad. The problem is really in rhe car. Also my 5th Gen hatch with b16a2 with the same bolt ons as he except for the cams is way faster than his car. I´ve drove it for a while and the car isn´t really running good.... :-\

1. the "engine hp" is nothing more then calculated from the wheel HP. so dont say it's 180, cuz it might not be.

2. what's his ecu map? "old setup" means jack to me and the rest of HMT.

3. what are the cam settings?

4. his car should be making more then 135WHP! i bet his cams aren't set right. or the ecu program is messin it all up.

dont stock b16a's make 135-140 at the wheels??

Re:WTF is wrong with the CRX??? Dyno PIC
 

Cam timing is wrong. Air/fuel wrong. Ignition timing wrong. The list can go on. Thats why is made bad power. Cams/head/t-belt installed wrong?

Re:WTF is wrong with the CRX??? Dyno PIC
 

stock b16s make 135whp. 160 at the crank.

Re:WTF is wrong with the CRX??? Dyno PIC
 

Hmmmmm...yeah 135 hp is on par or a bit below stock hp.
...I bet it has to do with Cam timing etc...different cams...make use of the adjustable cam gears...

i think ur both gay....problem solved :-*

Re:WTF is wrong with the CRX??? Dyno PIC
 

I think the turbos missing ;)

Re:WTF is wrong with the CRX??? Dyno PIC
 

I´ve used the camgears ajutement and the best I could do was 135 Whp. Crx88si about the "old setup" program, thats what I think its ------- up everything cause I don´t know were did he got it and it was installed before the current setup (without the cams, flywhell etc) and the car was running great. I don´t think its the timing in the cams... I almost could bet that its the ECU, I just wanted you guys opinion cause you´r more experient and so on :P I´ve told the guy to bring his Original ECU to give it a try, it doesn´t mean it will run good (I know it won´t) bu its just to look at some diferences and if it is i´ll have someone make a new costum map for him.

(I have all the tools to burn chips and ---- but I dont have experience yet to tune maps and still waiting for my wideband) :-\

Thanks guys!

Does he have a adjustable fpr. Tune the old school way reading plugs. Not the best but it works. Turn up the fuel and see what happens.

Re:WTF is wrong with the CRX??? Dyno PIC
 

I´ll try that and keep you posted. thanks guys.

Re:WTF is wrong with the CRX??? Dyno PIC
 

its the spoiler. the car doesnt like it so it wont run right. its the cars way of giving him the finger :P.

Re:WTF is wrong with the CRX??? Dyno PIC
 

maybe the "port & polished" head is the problem. or maybe somebody ripped him off and sold him stock cams instead of stage 3's... or maybe the engine is a piece of poo poo...

Re:WTF is wrong with the CRX??? Dyno PIC
 

Nop. The port and polish was made by us and its been done several times and worked real well. The cams were bought from omnipower and the are very diferent than the stock ones. The engine got all new bearings, new head gasket and several other stuff. That´s not the problem for sure.
