Hi there.
You're gonna need a bigger tire..
Drysump-pan,alloy heads if you can,and with a mild build that 350 can be a cheep
way to frightening performance.
More power=more strength=more$$=more fun.
I even like the color.

Yes, the D16 vtech engine is either the D16Z6 or D16Y8. Then again the stock engine in that car is a D16A6, it could just have a head swap to use the Z6/Y8 head.


On only 6lbs of boost I'll give you 160whp (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

VTEC, Andrew. VTECH is a crappy phone.

Oh, and putting a Z6 or Y8 (and there are a couple others that work) head on a non-VTEC bottom end is called a "Mini-Me" swap. Originally it was "Mini-Me LS-VTEC", but got shortened.

Also thinking ahead a little bit... thinking about making my own 8 into one headers for the 914 build and incorporate one turbo like someone suggested ... i think it will achieve the sound i'm looking for and compliment the high revs of the 283.... thoughts?

I like the 8 into 1 turbo idea. The short stroke on the 283 can spin guick if built right.

Something to consider for the exhaust..

Search Chris Julian, his old 914 v8 had a wicked exhaust setup.

http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?s=&...st&p=444416

You could do a 8-2-1. If you did a twin scroll turbo you could separate it properly at the turbo mount.. But you really dont need the extra spool up time... (It would let you go even bigger in the turbo and run lower boost levels... aka keep the heat even lower)

160 ain't bad from a 1.6 liter that originally made 108 HP...

Might get more without the CEL on... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Converting to the obd1 was not my doing...hence the MIL light... also...VTEC did not come in as shown by the graph being so smooth...alot of parts to be thrown at it and on zero tune...i agree 160 aint shabby the engine is actually the allusive D16A VTEC...yes they did make one ... very rare and not worth the headache for 118 hp stock ... I imagine getting the VTEC operational will free up some ponies..maybe one or two..lol

Congrats! Great number for a non vtec run. You wont get vtech to kick in with a CEL.

I chased CEL's for days when I swapped the head on my CRX Si before I sold it. Twas a great car, but the chassis was so weak and worn that it just didnt meet my standards for a daily... I felt like I would get pretty hurt in an accident.
