I went pretty far. It was about 3 years ago when I was taking autoX courses. The stuff I had done was mostly headwork. Machined head, P&P, valve job, titanium springs/retainers, etc. Just about everything in the head minus cams, pushrods, and the cam gear. It originally dynoed stock about 90 something whp (40K motor) and after it was fully built (estimated $700+ or so in custom work plus my own work [that's just headwork, not including exhaust, header, CAI, UD pulley, SAFC]) dynoed around 126 whp, poorly tuned. I never got the chance to fully tune the motor. The only tuning It ever got was dyno tuning a safc. I started getting rod knocks and eventually started losing compression. I replaced the rings and ran the car a few times, till I spun out and crashed while running at Thunderhills raceway in Willows, CA. The motor died from the accident, or the motor's death caused the accident, but anyways, yeah. It's not really worth the money cause you can literally go out and buy a faster car cheaper. I doubt my all-motor 7AFE set-up could even roll with modded Integra GSRs and B16 Civics and stuff, so it wasn't that fast. I never tracked that car, but I would estimate mid-high 15's... |
