Vtec in a nova it can't be done.... Or can it?!?

[pyromaniac_yeti]

Bens 2nd civic ran one of the B16 engine's in it.

Had a dyno printout of 175bhp at the wheels, and had a tendancy to ping it off the limiter every five minuites...that never broke.

The D14 honda engine in the first car (1.4, single cam 16v, non vtec) took enough boost to make a dyno'd 180bhp at the wheels, that had the same treatment, and a month of running an original ECU with no remap, and proceeded to last three months further of him winding the boost controller up a smidge every other day...cant remember for **** what he was running when it finally broke, but i know it was well over 12psi (with a standard head gasket, head studs, pistons, rods, crank, standard compression, and 91,000 on the clock)

VERY strong engines, only reason i'd ever own one tbh!!

What's the engine out of a jordan or just a vti mate. My mate has an ek9 nothing beats the noise

[pyromaniac_yeti]

What, this sound?






The thing that always gets me with that video, is at what point precisely in life do you realise you can accurately impersonate a honda civic using an old drainpipe?
