I know of quite a few SC'd DC5's, EP3's, Ariel Atoms etc running perfectly well..
There is always the niggling doubt with any build

Yeah too true, i dont know much about Honda's at all, obviously know they are pretty bullet proof but same as anything else when you push the boundries you push your luck.
Is there a rule of thumb to stick between?
Well, the biggest issue is heat and knock.High compression engine see.
And these can't be intercooled.
They can be after cooled but it isn't great.
So usually, around 7psi, which is what I have is safe.
Good for 300bhp easily and realible too
I am looking in to water meth for the future.
thats the fukkin sex
I can't seem to play the video, it opens up another page but can't watch anything?
I fail at computers!!
Edit - got it working on my phone now.
Thats impressive i must say, what torque figure you getting? when i was in malaysia i was working on a NA DC5 in the ATCS and that was getting 278whp, however that was a full race engine with the VTEC removed. Good work pal!
Looks like fun!
It was about 183lbft atw.
Which is 215lbft fly torque.
Mmmmmmm ATCS DC5s driooooool
So today i re-fitted all the rear interior...
The combo of solid mounts amplifying every little noise, road noise and the exhaust, it got too much.
So its all back in and so much quieter :)
I think the weight is negligible now anyhow!!
I also had my drivers side engine mount out to give that a tighten up as i was getting excessive engine movement and this was the prime suspect...
All sorted now.
Also today, I got a few boxes from OPIE :)
Cheers Postie :)
& OPIE Oils!
