Thread: Stock Vvl Dyno tune 93oct and e-85 tune

Over the weekend I tuned a stock 2.0 Vvl engine on pump gas and we tried out e-85 to see if a stock motor would benefit of it.
Setup consist of the following:
Stock 2.0 Vvl motor
Sr16 cams (non n1)
Ssac header with a 2.5 exhaust
Stock de air flow meter (restriction)
Stock Vvl rubber intake arm(restriction)
Stock Vvl 333inj and Fpr.
All accessories a/c p/s still in place.
Stock cam gears

I know this car can make 198-200 whp on 93oct. If he changes
1-The rubber arm for a hard pipe
2-Changes out the de airflow meter for a n60/e60 maf(1-2 whp gain)
3-Adds cam gears (I've had 3 whp gains)
Once the changes get made we will be back on the Dyno to see if we can make 205-207 whp with the changes and e-85.
The car gained some nice gains all around on 93oct(green line) and e-85(red line) blue is what he came in with

Nice..... that's a big jump in hp

Very nice test. Great results!

Damn the gains at and before crossover are huge.

Interesting about the cam gears. How did you have them set to gain 3whp?

This car is still on the stock cam gears, but I have dynoed common setups like the one on this car and retarding the exhaust cam gear and adjusting the distributor physically after retarding the exhaust has netted gains always. Exhaust gear retarded 2-2.5 degrees has been spot for this header/cam combo.

Thanks guys

Nice numbers, this is Tito car

Thanks for the great info. I have every bolt-on in my 92 SE-R VE. Besides sometimes wanting to wear ear plugs due to the exhaust I love it, and have done everything except messing with the throttle body and crap.. now you have me wondering about getting a set of cam gears....

Every car we have tuned with either N1 or non N1 SR16 cams had gains with cam gears all depends on intake manifold and header combo results will vary!!
Just make sure to adjust ignition mechanical base timing after exhaust gear adjusment!!
