Re: All motor build
This coming from someone who can't even remotely come close to winning any argument in this thread.
You'd guess wrong. My car came with 135 estimated whp, and the turbo that came on the car was an 11b, would probably support 160whp at most. The OE axles can easily support 600whp, and 1.60 60' times all day long.
How much power can be made using the stock turbo?
My guess is 250hp.
Hondas come factory with 160hp more or less. They do not roll out of production with axles that are equipped to handle 3 times the factory power. Why should they?
This thread is dumb and does not relate to the op at all.

Re: All motor build
Well you shouldn't be too upset, as you are in the minority, although you should probably knock on wood. But yes, I will elaborate on some minor breakage, specifically seperate axle cases, although nothing overly embarassing. We had just finished pulling my friends k20 swapped hatch off the dyno. PT67 on the gate(~18psi), had just made 490ish. Go to take it for a spin and make a couple of pulls. Do a 3rd gear pull and the axle snaps, no wheel hop, just pure breakage. What kinda vehicle snaps an axle from a roll? Oh I know, only a honda. Next case, guy I know with NA B18, making 190ish whp, launches on a street tire and proceeds to move only a couple of feet as both axles snapped simultaneously. Only a honda. Now these cases are minor, but I've seen much worse axle scenarios from hondas. We can even discuss motor breakage if you want to really be exposed to hilarity, such as an instance where I saw a spark plug blown out the cylinder head. Only a honda.

Re: All motor build
You're an idiot for thinking/saying that.
Around 280hp (1G)
Nor do they come out of the factory to handle the factory power. I can remember 2-3 instances when I was in Autozone and a couple honda kids come in saying how much power their new intake must add because they snapped an axle launching on the street. After asking what else was done to their car, the response was, "Just intake and exhaust". Must be pretty good intake and exhaust to add any more than 15 peak hp (10% increase in power if said car was making 150).
Which is exactly why you keep posting in it right? You suck at life faggot.

How do people have such bad luck with axles, Ive only ever snapped one oem axle... Shit i blew a final drive out of my car on the stock axles a year ago... Maybe i have a magical set of factory axles

Re: All motor build
On a side note,your saying that ALL Mitsubishi's have better traction?
Eclipses come with awd and fwd drive,there are awd Honda,fwd Hondas,and rwd Hondas...............
But Mitsubishi still will ALWAYS have better traction...
Lets also not forget Honda made aerodynamic cars that arent the size of boats. For instance the NSX.

I don't know why you guys are arguing about gas mileage. I get like 10-15mpg city with my turbo 4 cyl. Of course I also am on the gas 50% of the time. Who really gives a shit? We're making power not saving the environment.
Drop your compression to 7.5:1 and turn off VTEC and how much power do you make?
It goes both ways, fucktard. Stupidest arguement ever!
By the way, the fastest gasoline powered FWD 4 cyl on the planet is an DSM. How does that taste?

Gives you idiots some time to think between sentences.

Re: All motor build
Well for one I believe you are on a K-series? Which is pretty much the highest factory quality motor that Honda makes, and holds together much better than anything else to begin with. 450whp isn't destroying anything in that department You're tire spin is probably protecting the drivetrain. You're actually in a pretty good safety zone as far as hondas go. Push em to the extreme and you have parts breakage everywhere. Make no power and you break parts left and right due to wheel hop and other problems related to incomplete builds with insufficient drivetrain modifications.
I wish i could afford to go k. Im still on a b series. I have mickeys on my car with boost by gear and sometimes get very little wheel spin in 2nd on roughly 440whp.... 3rd if the tires are hot and the road is good it pretty much doesnt spin (18psi) 527whp. Its a great feeling when you can pull instantly on a bike from a 40mph roll

Where's Madsteez? I think we might've hurt his feelings.

Re: All motor build
Na bud I was at work. There too much to quote So ill just type
Have you ever driven a 200whp N/A honda? Or any other car with a very light chasis and a decent amount of power?
My car hardly ever spun,of course I was only at 210-220 WHP.
Ill still say DSM's are shitty, maybe not in the right hands but none the less. If a K series motor could mount to the D series trans and transfer case in a EF hatch or wagon I wouldn't be surprised if it womped on a Eclipse with the same amount of power. Yes MUCH more aerodynamis than a Eclipse but also much lighter.
For reference: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qxtf3...ext=1&index=78
But im not going to keep arquing about it over the internet you have your opinion I have mine.
