for one, you have no idea what motor he has so how can you tell him his motor is rated @ 130hp let alone a motor that came with vtec.

it doesn't matter because you're still dpfi and no one still has no idea what d15b you have. There are a few d15b's with different ratings.....

Well the stock d15b is 9:6.1 compression ratio and a stock d15b1 is 9:2.1.

So I doubt you'll be getting much hp from that block if any. Specially cus you're still dual point injection.

he said d15b without a 1 or 2 or anything. so i gave him the info on the d15b. i didnt say "you car pushes 130 hp".... source is wikipedia. just giving a bit of info to someone who requested some. i dont know what the previous owner did. All i know is he said "d15b"

yeah and on the engine code page I posted above the only d15b is a motor that had a carb. The other d15b motors on that list have a question mark behind the b like so..... d15b(?) meaning that a number should actually be there. I've never owned a JDM d15b so I can't tell you from personal experience.

yeah, more than likely you have a motor that is rated between 70-100hp but that's what they are rated at. I'll bet my left nut that even if you had a jdm d15b that is rated @130hp that it's not making more than a 100hp. :lol: You can never go by what your motor is rated at. your best bet is to go to a dyno to find out the numbers AND even some dynos like a mustang dyno don't put out the right numbers.



even if you did convert your dpfi into mpfi, you're still not going to feel a HUGE difference.

:lol: no!


he could give you a 1/4mi head start and you would still lose. :( Your motor is not made or built for racing, it's built to go slow and save gas. ;)
