Wow nice. I didn't change the timing belt, but the car only has 24k miles. Can running lean cause bad gas mileage? It feels better after adding more fuel with the vafcII. Still needs dyno tune though. To remove this ad, register today for free or log in if already registered!

It's the settings wannabfast posted but with all the negative numbers set to zero. Search for the post I made called DH ported head installed. It helped, but I know the settings are still way off. Our setups are totally different.

Just remember that you need more than just the head to make good power. When I ran the head with stock intake, there was almost no difference. Then I added a fipk intake and vafcII fuel and there was a much bigger difference. I bet exhaust would help as well.

for those of you with questions about the port work. a honda head has exceptional flow characteristics. basically all you need is a good five angle valve job and maybe some very minor proting to produce a very good street application and it would seem that this is the case for this kms head. you don't need large ports for an n/a car unless it is full race motor.

by the way i would really like to see some numbers
