This is the turbo spec cam. |
hopefully it goes well |
Nice, are you gunna get it dynoed? and has it been dynoed prior? |
sweet :eek: how much did it run you|? and how much is the shop gonna charge to put it in? |
No it has not been tuned but I am planning on getting it done within the month. The cam was 375.00 and the spring and retainer kit was 302.00. Whatever flat rate is on remove and replace cam and valve springs. |
sweet! i'm going to buy the N/A cam, springs and retainers! i can't wait to find out how this works out on your vic. |
I'm in the process of purchasing an EX head right now. After that it's time for a PnP and then I'll be doing the same thing you are. Good luck, I can't wait for your results. |

If you want to ger decent power of your D17 either turbo or go n2o with decent fuel management. Good luck with the cam........Let us know how it responds. well i planned on getting rods, H/C pistons, D16Y8 I/M (and hondata gasket if it would work), P&P... etc. i know it will cost a lot, but it's what i want to do. god knows why. |
damn I hope you dont get ass raped on the labor. |
thats tight let us know how it goes |
My shop only charged me 250 canadian to get the springs and retainers installed on my old CRX. and that was for a DOHC cam engine, so u shouldnt be that much. Retainers and springs is something u dont wanna **** up by doing urself, so may as well get the pro's to do it, and set valve lash and shit while they are down there. |
just saved them specs, holla and some good and beneficial rep for u |
was that one a regrind? or was that the brand new one everyone was talkin about a while back? |

Damn that's sweet !!! |

But....like I stated previously, our car does respond quite well to boost and N20. ;) The ECU, axles and lack of aftermarket support is what kills it for even bigger numbers. |

Look at the platforms they start with :tup: ......Look at what we have...... :tdown: But....like I stated previously, our car does respond quite well to boost and N20. ;) The ECU, axles and lack of aftermarket support is what kills it for even bigger numbers. i'm not really looking for all THAT much power, 135 whp would be sweet. i'm just going to try it out. you can all call me idiot when i do it, but i want an N/A D17. |
My advise is skip the intake manifold, pistons and rods for now. invest in that head pnp, cam, springs/ret. cam gear, good race header like HP or dc when it becomes available. and either e manage or vafc piggy back computer.+ tuning you will be in there for the 135 mark. I am 4-5 mph faster in the 1/4 mile since my 125.7 whp dyno run. so i am close to that without the cam. Just keep your goals realistic and have fun. |
I think high compression pistons + rods are good for an n/a buildup ... couple those with pnp head, cs2 cams/retainers/springs, aem ems ... and you're good to go |
The shop got caught up in another project they have going but said it would be ready by Saturday. Can't wait!! |
^ why not DIY? |
I could do it but I work from 8:30 pm til 8:30 am. so not much time except for sleeping. anyways TIMING is too important to f**k up. know what I mean? |
Originally Posted by aznboysrfr I think high compression pistons + rods are good for an n/a buildup ... couple those with pnp head, cs2 cams/retainers/springs, aem ems ... and you're good to go But seperate or even just rods and pistons the gains would be minimal without ems and tuning. Thats a fat chunk of change. |

So only until someone goes all out motor.. then we can judge what the D17 is really worth. :argue: |
