Hey guys was around at C&V just then and saw the Hypertune civic just make 365KW at the front wheels just with boost, no gas!

They said it was with only 24psi.

The car is still 1595cc and revs to 11,000RPM!!!

They may up the boost more tomorrow at C&V's Dyno day. I'm going out to see it run next wednesday night.

Cheers

Now thats some serious vtec yo

The power curve would be interesting, civics are gutless in the low rev range in NA form, lowering the compression so you could run a decent amount of boost would kill it.

My money is on it coming on full boost at 10k :O

why are we even discussing about a honda. I hate honda and everything about it. I have even heard some honda dudes day vtec is like boost,can you believe those idiots. i say rev all u want bitches, i know when we stand side by side on a drag strip i know that ill Be putting my power to the ground ;). stay on one place and burn your tires.

Yeah - this shows how good your knowledge of turbocharging is! Car still runs a high CR (9.4:1) This thing has a powerband that is over 5000rpm wide - no boost drop off between changes at all. Similar power delivery to an RB26 with a big single.

Yeah BLRCRX (james) here in Melb did similar things/numbers way back when, although i dont know the full specs, its a mighty feat without a doubt

James originally built his car to Hypertunes specs, his engine build was based on this car. This little civic is running on a 6 year old bottom end (been over 320kw at the wheels for this length of time too) and is still going strong!

I was back at c&V today(holden Vs Ford)dyno day.

They got the little civic out again, this time with c16 and some new plugs.

They started to get the car going again but they blew a tyre, then they got some new ones on to only pop a drive shaft.

They left it for now but they will be running the car this wednesday night still they said.

I hope all goes well for them and they get the MPH that they want(140).

Marks car from hypertune is crazy i have seen alot of work they have done over the years some of the custom work the do is crazy so if any of you guys need soom work done get them to do it they know there shit.

haha I won't deny that one :)

In all seriousness, how can you compare a 1.6L engine to a 2.6L?

You can't tell me VTEC would make that much difference (if any at all) to a conventional engine running a high lift cam when it comes to high rpm power delivery.

Or is it just cause it can rev higher?

If all other things were equal a 2.6L would flow 62.5% more exhaust gas at the same RPM right?

so having a 1.6L at 11k RPM would be the same as a 2.6L at 6750 RPM?

In that case I wanna see a 10k RPM RB20 running a TO4Z :(

Your are missing something important frost...Its called Volumetric efficiency!

Otherwise by your equations we'd all be trying to stuff 454 big blocks in our skylines :)

BTW top effort on the figures must sound insane on the dyno at 11k :)

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
