Car was dynoed today on 19" CCW's and made 527 rwhp @ 6400 rpm and 495 ft/lbs. @ 4800 rpm, uncorrected. This was with a conservative 22 degrees of timing. We decided to go ahead and try the nitrous, which was jetted for 200 hp with a bottle pressure of 900 psi and it put down 707 rwhp @ 6400 rpm 660 ft/lbs. @ 4900 rpm. The above numbers were produced through the mufflers. No other tricks were done to try and get an unrealistic number. Dyno graphs will be posted in the near future.
Big cubes are the the greatest, all the standard cubes work great but nothing drives like a large displacement engine. Do you plan on driving it on the street? The thunder of your new toy must be montrous! YES it's the nuts. Gary
The car is VERY streetable, i dont use it as a dd though. I drive a acura integra to work. I fish alot so i need a hoopty as a dd. Thanks everyone for the compliments
On another note, I often times contemplated buying a honda just so that I can kick it and dent it whenever I want. Drive it up curbs, run into shopping carts, throw rocks at it. Basically treat it how it deserves to be treated (being a honda and all).
But then, because of the embarassment (of being seen in the honda) I would have to constantly explain WHY I got it and encourage stangers to kick it.
No guys, seriously, I have contemplated this ... ... ...
