Thread: :( got skool'd

Well this is the thing... with a VE it will pay off much better. Forget spades its the trump card. Good luck

hell yeah it will pay of,for example when i first bought my b13 it had a sr18de in it,so i figured what the heck lets blow it up so i opt for nitrous(75 shot)...it also had ssac 2.5 headers,wai intake and 2.5 catback.well long story short my newly swaped in sr20ve,stock cams,pop charger,ssac header,calum ecu and 2.5 catback pulls just as hard if not harder than the sr18de on 75 shot nitrous...no joke

oh yeah got the cams activating at 4800 rpm's,might try a little lower

My DE with S4s has put the spankin on a few VEs. A good DE motor is hard to beat. A VE set up right is expensive.

indeed sir, after i get my exhaust on an header ported a little more i gotta wait till next years tax return to do anything else.. im gonna get the budget header if they're still avalible and some upgraded cams and such..

I have done all of the above now, but that won't get rid of the fact that your ve should be faster, much faster, on paper. Makes you wonder what is wrong?

I put down 173 with n1 cams.

Dudeman

Why do you say a VE set right is expensive?

Suppose you get a stock ve and a stock de an do similar mods, which do you think will be faster?

Peace

well im waiting on my metal ve exhaust gasket from greg, i've got the summit metal down pipe gasket already.. gonna see if i cant get one of my machinist friends to port this header a bit more for me, or i will just go buy some better bits and doit myself.. once my leaks are fixed an proper exhaust is on i will race my friend again..

60mm is 3inch? i was planning on goin 2.5 should i reconsider??

Nope. 60mm is 2.36 inch.

The car came with that mod from Japan (when it came with sr16ve). They use metric system. Guess they would have used a 70mm (2.755") if they we doing exhaust mod to a 2.0 litre.

I am going 3" by the end of this month - 3" downpipe, 3" piping str8 thru, 3' oval muffler, no resonator, no cat. Just waiting on a modded ssac header.

You should go 3" you wont regret.

peace
