Hello everyone.
PREFACE
This is the begining of a long journey, and actually the journey began 1 year ago.
I aim to share every detail of this build as I believe it to be a very agressive and ground braking project.
The goals include:
Applying very large nitrous quantities to a race preped 2.0l Honda motor
Attempting to effectively triple the N/A horsepower (225hp to 675hp)
Establishing a maximum safe shot with pump gas and water injection
Establishing a maximun effort performance with racing fuel on 1/4 mi.
It takes a very long time to create a rock solid foundation. I have been actively building and having professional modifications made to this Honda motor for 10 months now. I am a regular guy with a small business and this budget has long been overshot. I very easily have right now more than 11k in this and a ways to go yet. With the ecconomy here what it is, I am happy to move forward as I have been steadily.
I would like to thank Trevor, first of all, for making this most unlikely build possible. After much research and collaboration with Trevor, I am confident that this project is going to set a new standard for Honda build platforms for years to come.
I am no real fan of the regular build (copycat approach), and have chosen what I believe is the finest nitrous system in the world to rock the boat on conventional builds (turbo, staged NOS systems). Because of the unprecidented accuracy and level of failsafes designed into the REVO progressive system; this should prove to be reliable for evryday use as well. I am grateful to have the opportunity to use this fantastic (REVOlutionary) system.
From the start, I have gotten alot of interest in this project from everyone I contacted. It was like a pouring out of help and experience like I have never seen. You know like if you were building a common combination you might get a that's nice or something; but my goals for nitrous on a Honda 2.0l are above the bar and really got some experts to participate in the conversation. This is a great place in the story to thank Larry Widmer @ Endyn in Fort Worth, TX for his most charitable interest. Larry has agreed to to build this motors custom cylinder head for FREE! That is too say, parts are on me but thousands of dollars worth of customization and CNC work are no charge. Is that awesome or what? He said to send him the head and he'll get it done. I said I couldn't accept those terms and had to thank him in person when I bring it to him. Larry spent the entire day giving my son and I a tour of his facility and educating me on the finest points of race motor evolution. I was honored and humbled.
These are the details of the project.
The car is a 1993 Honda DelSol
The motor is a JDM B20B 2.0l
The cylinder head is a B16 VTEC DOHC
The exact details of each will be focused on within the thread.
Here is a picture of the DelSol upon first encounter, I bought it moments later. This was a previous 9.89 sec. car this year until he decided to part it out and go a different direction. The cage, and suspension are race ready and proven in the 1/4. The car is rust free and weighed 2500lbs with driver and last turbo motor combination. This will make a fine foundation for this build.
I will keep you posted on the progress as I can. Thank you
