Thread: Low dyno numbers on full bolt on 97 SE-R. 138hp. Input appreciated

It's gonna be different on lots of cars, esp. after cam installs. I understand your timing light is not working properly, but that is the precise way.

I can say yes and be wrong so I will not say yes. See what I mean?

Ahhhh ok. the timing light worked then stopped working. I guess it sat in my car too long, weird. I think its busted. Oh well. Whats another $18 when I already spent thousands

Any updates on your issues? You are one confused dude lol I will never modify or own another NA SR20DE motor ever again just a waste of time and money IMO.

I have a VE powered B13 that performs nicely.... as far as the DE B14, nothing has changed.. I attribute it to no tuning and a crappy exhaust, I guess.

If it's a daily driver, I'd sell all the go-fast parts, and put the money into the sentra. keep the 200sx as a gas sipper and save more money in the process.

Did you try running open header? Just for shits and giggles.See if it runs any better at least that way,you can tell that your exhaust is chocking up your car.and do a compression test. And see what numbers come up on the test.

An open header would be kinda cool. I'd imagine my neighbors wouldn't be too happy though. I live in an complex where people drive their SUV's and Mercedes and bitch if you even have your hood open for more than a few minutes.

Does the car lope at idle? It should lope more than s4's, try to get a vid of the exhaust with the car at idle. Those are stock cam numbers with bolt ons.

Yeah, it lopes decently. I raised the idle to around 1000RPM because it got annoying. I can lower it to around 800RPM and take a vid of it

I was doing some searching and found this 2.5" exhaust, what do you guys think? I need pretty much everything, including a downpipe (may need to order another OBX header and put on the downpipe and sell the primaries
