it can do, depends how well they do it.
Its a very crude mod where they literally grind away material, so if they grind the wrong area, youll still have the same problem.
B20 hybrids can top 300bhp no problem.
280bhp from a F7R is fine, but it isnt the most tractable or efficient engine in the world, the bottom end geometry is crap for high rpm and decent lifespan.
The K20As from the new CTRs are truely awesome......if you got the cash, think along the...
you;d have alot of hassle with cutting back the bulkhead, building a tranny tunnel, a RWD suspension seembly, or run a live axle setup, build your own dash (6 pot beemer will poke out your stereo).
why?
Those wanting work done at the beginning of sept is no problem, i will put aside a week for those who want it in a rush. I will also prepare manifolds before you arrive, but i will have to work your plenhams whilst you are there, which only takes a small amount of time.
The B series honda is a superior unit. With much much higher parts supply support, choice of components etc etc.
With very little money you can create a power unit that puts the 172 engine to shame.
And if you start with the K20A unit, 220-240bhp is a fart and a whistle away.
And there...
it CAN work, and will work, they tested it themselves.....to an extent.
People get hung up on how sensitive the F4R is to modifications, an air filter isnt going to blow it up. Although i have seen one case where something along those lines has caused detonation, but the proof wasnt...
This car needs to have oil changes with measured quantities if your unsure of top up amounts.
The gauge is accurate, when cold, and when on level ground.
It doesnt have a dipstick because it has bodies which the dipstick pokes right into.
Garys situation is different, he has next to nothing in his car, especially the rear, there is substantially less weight.
What we need to do is to run a COMPARATIVELY softer rear than the fronts. Spring rates used differ between front and rear because, like pointed out, the position they are...
You can dowel it yes, plenty of space.
The system is designed for the top to go on easily.
Just give me a call when it comes to putting it back on and ill explain how, its simple.
Make sure your not mistaking the LOUD injector ticks on these engines for noisy lifters.
Your engine should be a F7R conversion, not bored to 2l as thats impossible on the 1.8 block.......
