y7 y8 ????????
 

whats the difference? is the y8 vtech and y7 not?

Re: y7 y8 ????????
 

The y8 is v-tech and the y7 is super v-tech with extra nos sauce.

Re: y7 y8 ????????
 

Look, get an LS1 and stop worrying about a sub-2L motor

Re: y7 y8 ????????
 

y-7 has 2 stages of vtec
y-8 has 3. you cant use three though. last guy who tried to hit the third stage of vtec is still recovering. without his left leg........




think about it. is it really worth it?

Re: y7 y8 ????????
 

well the thing is that i burnt a valve and im just going to get an new head so was wondering if i can go with a y8 instead of the y7

Re: y7 y8 ????????
 

sure can but since your already doing it might a well get a dohc v-tech (you might need some skunk 2 adjustable cam gears to do the timing but will be well worth it)

EDIT - my bad v-tak

Re: y7 y8 ????????
 

but i also have to pass ny emissions

Re: y7 y8 ????????
 

just do what i do swap the dash board with a buddy go through emissions and switch back (VIN switch) ;D

Re: y7 y8 ????????
 

nice wish it was that easy.

Re: y7 y8 ????????
 

well then you can tune it to pass and tune it back
just get the dohc vtak first

Re: y7 y8 ????????
 

dont i have to change my computer out then to run the vtech

Re: y7 y8 ????????
 

no just need to run 2 wires from your ecu to the solenoid

Re: y7 y8 ????????
 

were can i find how or wht wires to do that with

Re: y7 y8 ????????
 

you just take +12 from the battery, put it on a switch to the single wire going to the v-tech solenoid. So when you want V-Tech you just flip the switch on

Re: y7 y8 ????????
 

or you could do that (i thought about hooking it up to a shift light and being able to adjust it on the fly)



ok well im gona stop messing with you (DO SOME ------- RESEARCH)

you cant put a doch on your d16
yes you should get the y8 head youll need to do a conversion on the ecu to run v-tec and run 2 wires
i dont know how different the bottom ends are between the y7 and y8
and the vin swap iv seen it done but its risky and very bad if you get busted

Re: y7 y8 ????????
 

thanks for the help much appreciated

Re: y7 y8 ????????
 

and post some ------- PORN

Re: y7 y8 ????????
 

I actually know a kid that did that lol. Hooked his vtec solenoid to his brights switch. mad vtak at the flick of your wrist

Re: y7 y8 ????????
 

sell the idea to the makers of Fast And The Fake
a button on the steering wheel like the noss button (makes the car go so fast you can barely hold on and keep pushing it :6)
