Default Trip's car

https://www.tamparacing.com/forums/s...d.php?t=203866

the single cam in here makes almost as much power and MORE TORQUE than this b-series..

i'm not yet a big turbo guy, so can someone here explain what makes his single cam so powerful? I would think turbo b SHOULD make more power than a turbo d. and they are both street cars...

trips ar makes lots of power, as a matter of fact it made more at one point than my B series did. remember trip worked at secret services........haha

but i think the difference is that trip was pushing a little more boost than the dohc, trips was in the low 20s and i am willing to bet the sc54 powered B series was not even at 20 yet.

trips car runs well and hauls booty...........buy it

Just because it has one cam doesnt mean it will always be slow

It's definately the boost Everything but the pistons and rods are stock on the motor

It's all good cuz I'm about to fix the turbo problem *cough* Keep an eye out to see what you missed when I decide I'm not selling anymore.

Please don't forget that this car has been very well tuned by Jason (60-1EK) through Hondata. It'd be hard to find a better tune, I had a good hand in the process, very thorough. I seriously doubt without Jason It would have gotten those #'s. Of course, I would have spent a bunch a unnecessary money buying a romulator, etc and would have spent a lot of time trying, but why would I when he's proved more than successful on his own Hondata driven monster?

And thanks to quitstrn for the inspiration, though I doubt he even knows it

NCHatch had a hand in it too, cosmetically for a while. If it didn't look good, who knows where it'd be, lol.

And of course, thanks Secret Services (Esp John, Matt, Scott and Taylor) For the opporotunity, experience and providing a place to make a monster. It's nice to have a dyno at your disposal I'd gladly work with them again, for free, would the opporotunity arise in the future.

And we cannot forget My dearest friend John Stanfil, Professional Jag Performance Mech, For teaching me all I know about combustion engines. I'm sure without him, this motor would have died on the first run, lol. Maybe.
