- In today's video I install a Red Dragonfire distributor into my turbo b16 swapped ek honda civic. As well as show you how to set base timing on Hondata s300!
Hey.. very nice presentation and just enough detailed for beginners and intermediates! Btw, do you need the old dizzy?
Thanks! And nope, everything you need comes with the new dizzy, and if you haven't yet I'd recommend upgrading your plug wires at the same time!
@@kraftingkars thank you for your response! Happy new year bro! .. What i meant is if you actually need the old dizzy right now, cause i need a new dizzy, so if you sell it i can buy it!
I have a good dizzy for 97 gsr b18c, just upgraded to high performance dizzy. Lmk tom pap
@@tompapsax damn dude sorry I missed this comment
I feel that the video is dedicated to me lmaoo, Thank youuu soo much
You know it!
fucken champ. I'm literally doing all of this
Nice! It's cool to see my older videos still helping people!
I’m thinking about buying this distributor to replace my obd1 oem one because my ckp cmp sensors are throwing codes. Is this really a good product? I don’t trust the auto parts stores products when it comes to Honda distributors
I haven't had any issues yet! Looks cool and performs well!
Hi, thinking about ordering this dizzy for my b20vtec (soon to go turbo). How is it holding up on your turbo setup it's been 2 years since this video.
Still great!
Are you still running the dragonfire distributor, if so how is it holding up. Thinking of getting one for my Zc dohc since they do not make the oem anymore.
Still running it! Performs great!
@@kraftingkars cool, ty
Can this distributor be repined to a non obd or obd0 jdm b16a and run it no issues I have a jdm b16a that’s been chipped and tuned with an sst chip.
I'm not 100% sure since I haven't ever worked on an non OBD or OBD0 engine, but as far as the wiring pinout, and the plug connection type. This distributor is identical to a factory OBD1 Honda distributor. So if it works for that, it will work for this.
Hello mate and 1st of all nice presentation and very informative vídeo 👍👌. Quick question, is there any harm to the engine if i set my timing just a liiiiitle bit off center (the plastic pointer in between the middle mark and the advance mark (like 0.5 almost 1 degree advanced)?
Before i installed the new distributor i made sure to check the timing position on the old one, on operating temperature, but the timing position is a little more retarded on the new distributor (i installed exactly where the old one was sitting) and so i had to advance a tiny bit more to match (give or take) where the timing was on previously on the old one.
I don't know if you'll ever see my comment but i would appreciate very much 👍
Yep, it doesn't matter which way you had to turn your distributor, as long as the timing marks are lined up correctly when you set it with the light you are good to go. That should be 16 degrees before top dead center
Thank you for your reply mate, appreciated 👍. So as long as the plastic arrow on the timing belt cover is either on one of the 3 marks there's no issues regarding engine knocking or under powered correct?
@@NRT_InsertCoin correct!
Why does my distributor on my b16a2 have a single plug while the ones im seeing have 2 separate clips?
You have a OBD2 distributor! I'm guessing off of a 99-00 civic si (em1) I have a b16a3 out of a del sol VTEC 1995, which is an OBD1 car!
@@kraftingkars ahhh that helps so much. Do you think i should buy a distributor that has an OBD2 plug or can i just buy an adapter harness? Also if i do the adapter harness route will my car throw any codes or cel?
@@Izimas Simplest route would be just to stick with an obd2 distributor with one plug. There really is no advantage running OBD1.
Whered u order this from!!!?
Back then I was able to order the distributor from the pfi speed website
How did this distributor hold up??
Great! Still running it to this day!
Are we taking bets on over under 300
I was gonna do that😬😬😬
What boost gauges do you have?
I have a gloshift boost gauge
@@kraftingkars sorry to bother again but whats that wear you battery use to go and where did you relocate it?
@@allaboutcars2424 that is a speed factory catch can, I have an Odyssey PC680 battery I keep in the trunk you can see here th-cam.com/video/6JliePl8mLk/w-d-xo.html
hey man, im interested in buying the same distributor for my B16 but the only one i can find is for a 1.8 litre and mine is a 1.6, does that matter? will it still work
Yes it should still work, Just make sure if you have an OBD1 engine and harness you get the OBD1 distributor. I highly recommend purchasing through pfi, pfispeed.com/?s=distributor&post_type=product
@@kraftingkars I’m pretty positive mine is an OBD1 bc mine has 2 plugs and not just 1, am I wrong there? Thanks for the help
@@rileymiller8817 you are correct obd1=2 plugs
@@kraftingkars thanks again man, I appreciate it, PFI is all sold out of OBD1 but I found the right one www.shopdragonfire.com/product/acura-honda-1-5l-1-7l-obd1-dohc-vtec-jdm-ignition-distributor/ should I trust this site? Seems legit, I just need one as soon as possible
@@rileymiller8817 yep, I would trust that website since it belongs to the manufacturer
Any benefits?
Haven't been able to test it much since my car will be parked all winter, but on the dyno it had no problem supplying spark over 8000 rpm with about 15 lbs of boost. And idle stayed smooth.
Very nice 😍💖🙈💋😫
Thank you 😂😘🤞🔥🥄🥺🎃😩👌
Where’s the dyno video?!?
Tuesday, stay tuned
アリガトウ
Arigatou!
Thank You!
If you ever go cop ditch that dizzy cause the s300 does not like it!
Oh damn really??? Do you know what sort of issues I should look out for? I will probably go cop eventually
Just subbed to your channel by the way, looks like you've got alot if videos that will be helpful in the future for me!
Mine does just fine all the way to 8700RPM
DOes it give you code 9? No. 1 Cylinder Position (CYP SENSOR) Because I was thinking about getting it since I saw host use it specially with s300? I been looking for a dizzy but they all give this code, have been reviving my OEM for years since they all give this code on my h22a s300 obd1 set up..
