Building for 400WHP

[Ashto71333]

Oh yeah, I see, that Axion kit is exactly what we did. We just pieced it together as opposed to buying a kit from them. Nice they make it easy and bundle it up. It's actually an Accord 2.0L GDI pump and injectors and then a jumper harness for the plugs. That FK8TD one is cool. I like how it has the An line with it.

with you’re knowledge I’m guessing it’s not safe for me to add this fuel system upgrade to my stock block with arp head studs..full bolt on (with skunk2 intake manifold) flex fuel and W2BB turbo ?

Can these work or not?

And I have a question, STEEL OR TITANIUM retainers, WHICH? DOES IT EAT MORE?

Yes they work

Have you put a smaller turbo on this motor to see what numbers it can make?

En realidad todo está hecho con paquetes de bobinas originales.

Tengo todo lo de PRL en mi auto: turbo W2, mega power, embrague y volantes, todo con Ktuner. Pero, ¿son necesarias las bobinas MSD? No sé mucho sobre su función. ¿Podrían ayudarme?

Thankyou for pointing me in a direction, but I want to reduce the peak torque of my engine if at all possible. I know these little 1.5's are capable of making ridiculous low end torque, but I also know motor internals, trans, gears, axles and everything else doesn't like that ridiculous torque.

A large part of my build is to stretch out the powerband as far as possible. I already know I will need to be going to a higher redline, its now about far I can stretch that powerband out. Do you think those cams will help with that?

I've been running skunk 2 stage 2 cams along with the high lift valve springs for about 3k miles now with absolutely no issues. Able to rev pass 7k and maintain power at the top end.

How does it pair with the W2 turbo? Let me know all the details! Give us your review!
(You could update your build thread)

Yeah my bad, I've been bad about updating my build list on here just because I'm hardly on.

So I've been running the skunk2 stage 2 cams with their high lift valve springs for about 3K miles now haven't had any issues and no check engine lights. If I would do this all over again I would for sure recommend that you go with a stage 1 as is just straight drop in with no modification to the valve train cuz let me tell you, as anyone else that has done it as well, getting these valve springs and keepers in was a goddamn headache.

For sure first thing I notice is that with these cams it 100% wakes up the W2. It really shines it might just be me but I feel like it does spool a lot faster and not like before with the stock cams The power goes to drop off once you hit around 5500 to 6K. With these cams the power has been able to maintain past 7K not that I do it often but you can feel a noticeable difference that it'll just keep pushing as opposed to just losing power at the top end.

I have a shitty video I could post so you can hear the cams from when I first installed them if you'd be interested or actually I'll just post it. The sound is immaculate lol I can definitely tell it's cammed.

Sorry for the shitty sound. I'll take a recent video. Also don't mind all the lights on the dash this was right after I installed and just barely flashed my tune so I hadn't driven it around or anything to take the lights off
