Well an S2000 makes 200whp with less than 160tq (AP1) and it runs a 13 sec 1/4, and weighs as much as an S13. How much faster do you need to go NA? You'll have to have the gearing to mechanically boost the lower tq, but I think it'd be great. It's like my stock KA right now, but instead of dying at 5k, it'd pull for another 2k rpms and save about 80 lbs or so.

I'll probably do it because I've already got the motor, most of the parts, and it'd be cheap. Drop it in my car while I'm saving up for my turbo motor build and sell it as a dyno'd package.

I'll win HIN because it's different, right?!

 

I guess if you run a 4.36 it would help out alot. I didnt think a an ap1 would go faster than 14.2 in the 1320. Most s2k owners bitch about the lack of tq which is one of the reasons I brought it up. They mostly bitch about that for daily driving though, because they have to rev the hell out of the motor to go anywhere even with a 6spd and a 4.11 f/d. But since its not your DD its as much of an issue for you I guess.

I'd say my car is around 3050lbs with full tank and me in it.

 

got done with the hood, minor stuff now.
heres a pic.

 

Looks good Austin.

 

Fucked with this motor all day long, and it still wont run. Im getting fuel, getting spark, it will run if I keep my foot on the gas but not otherwise. Set dist timing, and still nothing. Tried a new MAF, new ECU and same result. Im about to burn it to the ground.

 

thanks ken.
