hotrodf1 said:Dang,
the rods really are weak in the stock motor?? And not the rod bolts??
How do the Honda guys get away with bolting on a turbo kit and making over 250 at the wheels on a stock motor???? WTF!
GhostMercury said:so how much psi were you pushing when you bent the rod
Matthew1785 said:this sounds like a silly question but what's DSM AFC what's it used for what does it control? if you don't have a EMS how do you tune with a WB?
what A/F ratio should our cars be at... what's a perfect ratio?
plase try to stay on topic, if you want to make a thread about your engine blowing or painting your FMIC do it somewhere else.

mspHtown said:the AFC controls the fuel only. a wideband reads the air fuel ratio. if you dont have ems or something that can control the air/fuel mixture than you cannot tune.
a perfect a/f ratio is 11.9-12.1 for boosted applications and 14.7 for naturally aspirated.
also, what color should i paint my fmic??? jkkkk
GhostMercury said:not unless you are going with a higher compression. but that would be a bad idea with a turbo. with a lower compression like 8.5:1 you will yeild more power with less boost. but besides that you are just making a stronger motor

compare it to evo's. they have like 8.1:1 compression i believe
