nice ef and numbers what was your budget? If you dont mind telling us... it looks low... but idk

 

Very nice man. Similar to my build minus piston/cam choice.

 

Nice build. I would love to build a N/A D16A6...maybe one day.

 

Nice vtec burner, nice.

good numbers also.

why not just use the NPR p29's or the pistons from the ZC?

 

Needs a longer intake tube at 2.5" diameter and some cam retard.

I like!

 

I was thinking this because how early it fell off.

I bet it feels stout OP, I honestly have been kicking around the idea of selling my turbo stuff and doing a full A6 build with pg6's.

edit: to be clear, I consider the OP's result from that level of modifications to be pretty good...which makes the other one I linked freakingfuckingomg impressive.

 

Money spent on this was approx 2500. Car was 600.
There may be some restriction in the choice of header but got very lazy after the dyno. Haven't even washed my car since then (march)
FYI the motor did not like being advanced by 2. Lost 3 ponies and some trq.
Have not tried retarding it, should have done it on the dyno.
But as soon as Exo's stg 3 gets to me, another session and hopefully there will be enough time to try out different settings on the cam.
The plan was to squeeze some giggle juice that's why I picked the pm3 over the p29. But garage got broken into and the tank got stolen. Lost motivation when thinking back about the p29s.
This build has been very educational for the price. I've learned a lot from this little motor.
This is my first SOHC build.

 

I have almost the same setup but with a bisi cam and p2e pistons.

 

mid range torque is alright, to make it last though, beaves suggestion sounds right.

a longer tube will help accomplish that? sounds almost too easy.

yeah if advancing it isnt the answer, then be cautious about retarding to far also. otherwise it should work.

 

I dont think cam timing will help, just hurt, from how short the peak is.


the intake pipe has already proven itself so im sure it will help as beave said.


but power is about right, I like and thats what I would assume.

Im diggin this car, remnds me of mine, nonvtec power fo sho!

 

did u mill down the pm3 piston? open up the head? stack some head gaskets?

nice little setup.

 

old school trick....no milling needed

2-3 degrees retard in the cam MAYBE

The intake shortness is limiting the "ram effect" around 4500 rpm.

 

so your piston sits out of the deck by .7mm?

 

nice! congratulations!

 

Slump in the torks at 4k seems to correspond directly with it going a little fatter in that spot. Did you try to smooth that out?

I like the sedans, they are growing on me.

 

PS, you wouldn't happen to have any pics of the ports and the porting, would you?

 

Noyce. Repped. I'm doing something similar except with Deltacam/p29s

 

nice little build OP, the exo s3 cam is awesome.

 

we have talked about the possibilities of squeezing more out of this cam because there is some more to be had. but im sure this was a learning process anyway which i know the new stage 3 cam will appreciate.

 

torque !!!

 

doing a similar build right now ...D16 A6 ...........in ciollecting parts phase

block decked....head shaved........pm6 pistons .50 over........head 3 angle valve job....springs( not sure yet what to get???)....... intake is a z6.............head and intake gasket matched ported.....( not sure about polishing ...hearing diffeent opinons on fuel molecculizing)......colt 278 cam.....TB stock and port match....will bring it from 57 mm...to like 59mm..........getting injectors cleaned and balanced........8 pound fly wheel stage 2 clutch..........i did a moose mod y8 manifold ( look it up on here)....2,5 inches all the way back......wide open muffler no cat...........any thing i am missing?????........oh btw...this is for an oval racer that is supposed to remain stock......any guesses on what HP will be....I have no clue

 

a tune is my best guess.

 

acid beaver will get me close on the tune....fine tuning is up to me

 

Love it. Simply love it.
