Thread: Fully bolted DE vs. VVL swap

Stock tranny. Thinking of switching to an SR16 trans.



I'm going to order it from the company in Hollywood CA for the same price. SOKO I think?

What kind of engine managment did you run?

......

Trying hard not to threadjack, but BenFenner made 150whp with just engine management. Mr-4door is doing a very similar build to mine and from what I gather he could be looking at 180whp with cams if I read correctly. This is on an SSAC header. You guys could very well be right, but I say it's worth a shot.

I was running the stock ecu.

id have to see it with my own eyes to believe it.

rob, im not doubting you at all but like i said id have to see it lol.

full standalone ecu ?

stratton.

i dynoed 147hp/137tq with stock cams and no tuning in 104 deg weather, 150hp is within reach but 170 wont be done in a de without cams.

^BenFenner did it, he has a thread about it on here.

Stratton has seen that thread. He posted in it a bunch of times. I think he posted in one of my other threads at some point saying that he'd like to see it with his own eyes. Maybe I just got that impression somehow along the way. Doesn't matter, and I don't necessarily blame him. It is what it is. =]
