I think the “xenocron explores timing” (or something like that) thread on [pgmfi.org](http://pgmfi.org) had the script posted to keep the honda code from setting timing limits that were too restrictive. take a look when that time comes.

Well I haven’t really touched anything on the car in a while…I managed to get some things done tonight.

The engine is pretty much assembled besides the oil pan, alternator and valve cover. Next step is to bolt the transmission up and get it in the car 🙂 Hopefully it will be in by this saturday.

truth

you can build an engine for 1k that will handle 400+ whp.

yeah, thats shitty bang for your buck. oh, and then pwn all the haters in this thread that drive slow cars, or are still trying to buy a turbo because they spent all their lunch money on an ls swap.

any updates? that car looks like its in nice condition, where did you find it?

to all the D series haters, mine had 240lb-ft of tq. it would take a B series WAY over 300whp to make that much torque. and my motor was a poopy d16a6.

just an fyi to the OP: i blew my stock d series rods after 6 months of weekend driving @~14 psi on a evo3 big 16g. i think 200whp on stock rods is the rule of thumb.

i tuned my car myself too, lots of fun, and took a long time. i had the leisure of practicing on a stock block before throwing my built one in. i have an emulator and chip burner if you still need to pick those up. i gotta cool excel file of my obd0 maps too if you wanna check it out, it woulda helped me a lot when i first started. our tunes will be a ton different cause your head is so much better, but im just trying to help 🙂 pm me and ill email ya or something if youre interested. good luck!
