recipe for tuned NA motor (all-motor)
anything missing or should be added? i reconsidered boost to stay away from trouble with cops if they ask to lift the hood.<p>full 2.25" exhaust
gude camshaft
festiva motorsports sohc header or hurricane mild-steel hearder ceramic coated
valves
festivamotorsports sohc cam gear (compatible??)
paeco titanium retainers
volvo vs-855 valve springs
apexi s-afc
bullfrog big bore throttlebody (or aftermarket tb fitted to custim I/M)
custom sheetmetal intake manifold (or individual runner throttlebodies if labor costs are close)
fuel pressure regulator
2nd gen rx-7 fuel pump
aftermarket radiator
90-94 protege lx: injectors, lightened flywheel, tranny, axles, ecu
oil cooler
bigger fuel rail
2nd gen non-turbo maf
ported cylinder head
unorthodox UDP
mazdaspeed motormounts
deves steel rings
paeco copper head gasket
paeco titanium pistons
paeco titanium rods
sun auto hyper ground system
msd 6al
msd blaster 2 coil
k&n cone filter
maybe a dash of 50-75hp shot if i cant reach a 130whp goal?<p>also if i can get a hold of a dohc i found, i might add some hks miata cam gears or mazdaspeed cam gears and the corksport camshafts.<p>seem like a recipe for a workable buildup? i expect this to be maybe a year project because of the money i have leftover after paying off insurance and monthly cell phone bills and for rx7 insurance/mx-3 show expenses.

Re: recipe for tuned NA motor (all-motor)
what does boost have anything to do with getting in trouble with the cops, whether they open your hood or not??

If they do they will think he is a racer, plus if he is in cali everything must have a # to show it is smog legal including something as simple as a cold air intake tube and filter.

Re: recipe for tuned NA motor (all-motor)
he's worried about being marked as a racer by the cops because of a turbo, but is thinking about putting a nitrous bottle in the back? <p>i understand about things having to have a carb exempt # or being carb legal.

Re: recipe for tuned NA motor (all-motor)
The Volvo VS-855 springs only are known to work on the DOHC heads of the B6 and BP, I strongly doubt that they will work. A sheetmetal manifold is a waste of money for your application, your major restriction lies in the head. It will take a lot of work to surpass what the stock manifold can supply. I would skip the $600-700usd for the manifold and opt for an IRTB setup. Not sure if you have considered this or not but with an IRTB setup, you need a new computer..ie. TEC, MOTEC, HALTEC, etc. Aftermarket rad is somewhere that you could forego a cost, you won't surpass the stock unit unless you are going full out road racing. Titanium pistons and rods? If your going to spend the money, why not go carbonfibre? Carillo, Crower and Pauter all make great rods with proven designs (although Pauter from an engineering standpoint is garbage).

Re: recipe for tuned NA motor (all-motor)
i was considering the IRTB if the costs were close to the cost of a custom i/m. i might go with that and then do some research on motec or haltech.<p>oh and about that nitrous bottle, i was plannin to put it in my spare tire well and maybe hide the nozzles under the i/m if its possible.

Re: recipe for tuned NA motor (all-motor)
Ok, I'll try to help you out with that. I must assume I don't hold the ultimate truth, but here what I would do about some items you wish to change.<p> <blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr>Originally posted by marshmallow15:

<hr></blockquote><p>Ok, Exhaust too big, you won't have a turbo, and it was discuss that 2.25 would be enough for turbo.. So maybe a 2" would be better. expecialy since you want to reach over 130whp.<p>For the festivamotorsport items.. Make sure that they fit, phone them! Well, they speak of the b6 indeed, but the 8 valves one. I over check there head on the project they got, and it was 8 valves all the way, from a 323... So, don't be shy, send them a message, or phone them.. I would.<p>And now, about the Pump and fuelrail, why ? It was stated that it would be enough with the stock one to go to 250bhp. lose 15% to mechanics, and that's 217whp. I would look into the FuelPump of a scrap GS though. Well, they support 125bhp, and over! I miss an information if the RS fuel pump is the same as the GS one.. if it is.. well, keep the pump, and change nothing to the rail. Instead maybe, I had a project of putting to pump, on the same fuelrail.. I'll keep you inform if I do it before you, and you want to know about.<p>For the radiator, I would keep it. it is working for you engine right now. And when they are designing that piece, they must accept a certain variability on the fabric. Is the GS rad the same rad as a RS ? if so, keep it.<p>And you speak of Protege part.. I wouldn't go there. Well, you want piece for a B6 engine, not a BP. I know some BP parts fit, but they might need some custom there. Go check it the 323 engine didn't receive those items. Maybe the 121 or Ford festiva or Aspire got parts too. You want to work on a B6, work with B6 parts.<p>Now, you'll get more air in. Put a direct ram air to a filter. Stick the fuel pressure to 42 psi, and raise timing to 18. Well, Claude as done it, seems like he is in that setup for quite a while, and running about 110hp, with everything stock, except the Ram and Filter. That's from his saying.. I didn't see any dyno from that, but seems is saying right. I'll confirm with him. <p>So, you want over 130whp? with the current engine you got, a 50hp shot will get you there.. but, changing part will help you keep your engine nice and running for a longer period of time.<p>Well, keep us confirm!

Re: recipe for tuned NA motor (all-motor)
dont go with the copper headgasket from paeco for .1- they suck 2-they are thicker than your stock headgasket and will lower compression thus lowering power 3-you dont need it. if your stock headgasket blows your doing something wrong.

Re: recipe for tuned NA motor (all-motor)
good luck dude, but most of your list is sh*t...<p>You're not gonna make very much power from those mods... then again I'm not sure what you're planning on doing. Use the Apex SAFC to inject lots of fuel and advance your timing ridiculously - run on 94 octane? It looks like header/exhaust/cams... not much power on a 1.6L engine there...<p>good luck

Re: recipe for tuned NA motor (all-motor)
Now, forget to tell..<p>do a weight reduction project too.. 100 lbs is suppose to be like gaining 6hp.. our car is around 2100-2200 lbs, and you should be able to get it to 1800lbs only by removing small parts..

I must assume I don't hold the ultimate truth, but here what I would do about some items you wish to change.<p> <p>Ok, Exhaust too big, you won't have a turbo, and it was discuss that 2.25 would be enough for turbo.. So maybe a 2" would be better. expecialy since you want to reach over 130whp.<p>Granted on your 1st comment, same goes for me, but how the f*&$ is having less air flow out of your exhaust helpful, a thing that some old hot rodders like to say is, more backpressure=more torque, this simply is not true. more airflow=more hp is more like it<hr></blockquote><p>
That may be true in a sense, but you WILL lose low-end torque and probably mid range torque on the rev band if your exhaust piping is too big, and let's face it, thats where our cars (both 4cyl. and V6) need it the most.. just my .2cents lates
