if i may just a suggestion you my want to look into a greedy emanagement system add the injector and the ignition harness, with the boost sensor aswell. this system for the money imo is the best option for a stuot street car and with your wideband you should be able to road tune as best as possible then a little time on the dyno your set . also a word of caution after about 15 psi on stock sleeves your playing russian rulet. hope this info help you out happying boosting .

Thanks for the advice, But I already have Hondata with 3 Bar but I am not gongi to use it on this engine. Saving it for the other engine. This engine is sorta a doner engine per say, I am having alot of fun with it, but it's not a big deal if it blows up cause if it does I'll toss my other engien in and do the real management, Thsi engine was jstu to get my car moving for the few months it'd take to assemble the engine. I'm not gonna go any higher then 11psi on tis engine. it's already pretty quick as is, as Honduhman will tell you. I've street tuned with my wideband and been playing with boost retard on my ecu programmers, Ther's not too much more I can do myself with ym AFC. I want to hit a dyno, but the damn highways are snowy to kamloops.. :'(

I am running abotu 12:1 at full boost. Tapers from 13.5:1 to 12:1 from 1-3 psi about, then from there on it's a steady 12. sometiems dips into the 11's. I'm still palying with the datalogging so I can see exactly where to add fuel and what not. Have it set at .75 degree bosot retard.

Motor is boen stock cep't ARP head studs. :p Oh Oh, and an uber shiney STR cam seal y0! hahahaha

well..finally an update...the GE nighthawk bullshit is as bright as my Piaa's....i feel hurt inside :(....only diff is they dont have a slight bluish tinge against white things on the highbeam

down_hill_dog 12-28-2004 08:56 PM

the anti bluish tinge is a good thing... rice is for people in poor countries, and is meant to be of food value.

On a serious note, if both headlights put out the same measured light amount, you will still be able to see better with the white one versus the blue. Same idea of why ski goggles have an amber tinge to them. With the blue it may look like the light travels further, but the part of the road you actually need to see will be brighter with a white light.

And no you cannot bust out "well HID's are all bluey". They only look blue from an angle, dead on or from inside the car, the shade of light you see is probably the whitest you'll ever get from your headlights.
