No loom?

Apparently his missus is sorting that out...

... but so true

Looms pretty simple but big. Got one here if you want pics to be able to copy it.

yes please!!!!

That's what she said!

Results are in!! wohoo!

First of all, she survived the Dyno and Tune on Thursday just gone.....that's the most important thing. sooooo frikking chuffed!!!
So, the tuner i used, a local old guy with a very old and harsh dyno but he knows his stuff and takes his time, plus doesn't push things too much - perfect for what i wanted first time around. ill upload the dyno sheet asap but he kept a steady line with vtec kicking in at 5500rpm as he said when he took it lower the power dropped off, so that's fair enough. i'd have to look at the graph again (currently in the car) as to what rpm he got the max out of it that day but his result was 211 at the fly, which is 246 at the wheel i make.

When quizzed about a brief few things (he doesn't say much bless him) he said he didn't need to up the duty cycle of the fuel as there was plenty there using stock settings on the adjustable FPR, but neither did he adjust the cam gears to get any more out of her as he didn't want to push it too hard, and that's fair enough for now as Njord and i set the JUN cams to what the dialling in of the cams resulted on - which was the same as a previous owner here of JUN cams set them at. He didn't really give me any advice on anything restricting the setup etc. but i know the exhaust is only a 2.25 width on the cat back so that's not going to help much - but it's better than a stock pipe haha!

The drive home was F*CKING EPIC...it pulls soooOOOO well

So, plan is to enjoy it thoroughly this year with some shows & meets, plus get the arches done at Bri's too. THEN ill look at getting it remapped again maybe at somewhere who really knows H22's well like Rich at PA, depends if my Mugen friend is busy or not...we shall see. Plus, i need to get a rollcage on the order of Mein Fur.....the Wife, before i do any track day - buuuut im not complaining to that as it will go along with my Kanjo look as well.

Most importantly i have people here i wish to give a big BIG thank you too, as this Prelude is well & truly a forum built car!!! if i miss anyone, please slap me with a large fish into a canal.

Some decent power there buddy .
Bet it was fun drive home .
I'd go with 3inch system it really does realises these engines potential .

Nice result considering it sounds like there's a lot more to be tuned out of the engine and larger exhaust. I know that smile you must have had driving her back

Good results man, glad the gearbox is ok, your little mong moment over the new year had me concerned

Soooooo, dibs on a passenger ride

Nice to hear you're getting there mate be nice to see it soon I hope
