  • @zerohikari2685
    @zerohikari2685 หลายเดือนก่อน +120

    You need headwork. The K20 head does not have enough flow stock to make power past 9K RPM NA. You'd need a port and valve job. Even then, the engine is too squared. It's literally not designed to make power there. You will never make power near even 9.5K and not need a rebuild every 300 miles because your valvetrain is destroying itself. Give up on chasing power and just enjoy the car.

    @10:53. This is useful information.
    Instead of just having a filter directly over the intake trumpets, put a box that clicks in to the filter mount, and have a duct Go over to somewhere for a cold air intake. The problem isn't running an air filter. The problem is you're running an air filter directly on top of your velocity stacks.
    This is always a bad idea for power. Look at every single sport bike. Not only do they have velocity stacks like yours with ITBs, but they will use a panel filter located away from the top of the stacks. Filter fills a box like a plenum, and that box feeds the trumpets just like open air.

    A lot of people run mesh screens on the itb it will prevent things that can get stuck but doesn’t restrict air as much now since you won’t catch the particles from the air you will have to do you oil change more often to make sure no debris clogs the oil passages but that solves being able to run itb’s without a filter just like big turbo guys just put a screen over the compressor housing

      You went from nt01s to Ecs02? Nt01 is widely known as one of the best casual tires for lapping since they take a lot of heat/abuse, and never heat cycle out. They aren’t as fast as the super 200 but are pretty similar to the endurance tires. Ecs02 will chunk after 1 session on track and are nowhere near as fast

    to combat the heat soak issue you might try to build an insulated snorkel box. The s2k I believe has a void behind the driver side wheel well, you might build a duct into the snorkel over there and itll allow you to control the intake air temps a little better.

    I owned an 09 SE3P S2 R3 for 4 years before mine went to an 06 AP2.
    Although I'm bound to get a rebuttal for saying that. But the R3 drives fantastic. I know I can't forget the feeling today!
    I put the DFV on R3 to get a little camber and it was amazing in the corners. And it's a much stronger car than the FD3S.
    I would say the unmodified 997.1 Carrera is not as good as the R3.
    The S2000 has similar power to the R3, but for me there was a bit of torture and I couldn't enjoy the corners.
    I need to focus on the rear wheel all the time. It was even willing to turn excessively on freeway ramps.
    The factory settings on both of them are enjoyable, but if you want power, they both need to be supercharged.
    The se3p has the turbosource kit, or you can swap 13b-rew, or 4 or 5 rotary, that's absolutely evil.
    The S2000 being a Honda doesn't need to worry about mods, you know.

    the air gets hot as its sucked thru the spongy membrane.

    I made 236whp/194wtq on a bone stock k24a2 with just bolt ons... Im struggling to understand how an ITB, High-Comp, cammed K20 on e85 is making such little power... Or maybe that Dyno just reads super low? I saw a cammed, high comp K20-24 frank make almost 280whp at my shop, and that didnt even have ITB's.

      On STD correction? They always read about 5% higher than more common SAE correction. Also, ITBs are super difficult to tune to correctly make power. You need the correct combination of all parts for it to work well which I believe is the source of their problems. I suspect they could make more power going back to the stock intake manifold. You lose the inertial tuning effects of the plenum and intake piping. However, it’s still possible for them to change runner lengths via trumpet sizing.

      @@GalliJZ Its not tho... Its important that Dyno's are calibrated to be consistent, so customers can get accurate and consistent readings. If you go to one shop, get 240, and another shop reads 210, it can be thought there is a problem with your engine. So no, its not stupid at all...

    Runner Length.
    There are basic calculators out there to help you find out a good length to start with.
    ITBs are extremely sensitive to tuned lengths.
    Ben if you haven't yet, check out Garage 4AGE.
    He's got many well documented dyno runs on his 220whp 10,000 rpm ITB Starlet and thats with 1.6 liters.
    Look closely at the intake runner length videos. The length needed to make best power across the range is way longer than you'd expect. Some of it can be fixed with Cam advance.
    Then as found in the video, you have the tuned length of the exhaust, which the engine is much more sensitive to on ITBs.
    The same concept was proven in Garage 4AGE's K24 tuning videos (normal intake manifolds).

      @@GearsandGasoline It is pretty close to what you made with the K20 originally. My F20 with Toda 50mm ITBS, Toda Header, 63mm HFC, and 63mm dual Exhaust puts down 216 at the wheels on 91 pump gas.
      You're losing power with the filters because they are too close to the inlet of the trumpets and are disrupting the air flow. When I did my Haywards I had a different filter set up and was able to space the filters a decent amount off of the inlet plane of the trumpet and didn't experience any horsepower losses with it. The typical sausage filter you have seems to keep the filter a little bit to close to the trumpets, but it's what you have to do to clear the hood usually. This is one of the main reasons I went to the Todas.
