gsr's arnt that fast, especially with just intake.

alot of numbers are different due to the fact that dynos read differently. alot read higher then they really are. this dyno sheet is on a dyno-dynamics dyno which apparently reads very accurate.
my mods at the time of the dyno:
AEM CAI
DC Shorty
Megan TP
Buddy Club ProSpec

what kind of a difference do the bc cams make?
ep3's arent that fast, even with everything
and about your other post, I don't know what a1 swap is running you 2k but you're getting ripped the fuck off.
You can get a very nice condition a1 from dave for 1250 or you can go to a junkyard and get one that might have problems for 600-900
you can swap it yourself for the cost of a cherry picker if you dont have one.
Or you can have someone put it in for 300-500 bucks, or if you have friends they could help you do it for a case of beer.
ive seen post of people puttin out 180+ with bc cams valvetrain and bolt ons. is this true of the a3?
this maysound stupid, but i rather have a a2 or z1 in my car than 180 hp a3..
i was planning to do, cams and bolt on.. but at the end i put a z1 in my car...
i'm loving it every moment of it...its better out of the box period...
i'm running roughly 200-210 to the wheel. with just bolt on..
i'm sure i'll put out more with buddy RH, RBC intake + CAI( just a3 short ram)
okay agreed gsr's and ep's arnt fast. most encounters with my ep vs gsr's i came out on top , maybe driver error or there cars having in some cases a decade of miles more than us. i use to feel about integras how i feel about tc's or em1's.
and yes 2k for the swap assuming he wasnt doing the swap himself. and dont forget that tranny pass mount.
my issue is that this car is my dd so i dont to deal with finding a solid motor. finding a way to transport it. Then the headaches of swapping it. It might be doable in a weekend but i swapped my supra and i know that theres always somethin to slow the process and i need to get to work! lol. so id be plenty happy with 25 less horsepower and a cammed a3. But i could change my mind. I gotta sleep on it some more
I've always planned that if I was going to do a swap (and that's not really on the table), I would buy a junker for like a $1,000 and use it as a DD while I took my time with the swap. Afterwords, I doubt the value of the junker will have moved much, turn right back around and sell it again.
thats a good idea. wish i had an extra grand :mcry:
fuck spending 2 grand on dumb shit and getting 30 horsepower to the wheels. Just save an extra $1000 up and go turbo. Most drag races are won with torque not "oh ive got 157 hp at the wheels and 120 LB ft and I can beat my moms minivan on the corners. Unless you've got the K20z3 why even waste the money?
....Or buy a cheap ass k20a3 for like 600-800 bucks on ebay and buy a EG hatch put both together and woop ass. Light weight cars rule
