OMFG i'm in lust w/your setup. i really it. my question is how the idle when on stand still. i was doing a set up like this but w/cbr600rr itb's at the end. once the motor was broken in but i was told to stop being a girl and just slap them on when the motor is done.
by the way i love the JDM fron clip. and yes i have a rex too.
Well I still have some things to work out before I finalize idle, but as of now it holds it around 1500 rpm. The biggest problem I have with it is the IACV is locked open to help it idle. So if any loads come on at idle then I have to hold the throttle to keep it alive. In the end it should be able to hold it around 1000-1200 with the IACV operating normaly.
The biggest problem your going to run into is trying to get the car to run before tunning it. With just a cam like this it will barely run if not at all. I mean it will not idle, wants to rev on it's own, rich as hell, no vacume.
With my set up I already had been using this cam and head on a stock block. So I had a pretty good map made up to hadle it already. I was able to seat the rings with the stock injectors in place. Once that was done the new injectors went in and I finished break in on the dyno.
If your starting from scratch then i would seat the rings with a stock cam, injectors, intake manifold and a map made to hanlde higher compresion. This way the engine will run smooth enough and you wont be so rich the cylinder walls get washed. Once thats done then slap the cam, injectors, and ITBs in and get her tuned. The cam and ITBs togetther though will prolly make it a real bitch to tune at first.
